"In September 2011, Annette was tested at a private clinic by Dr. Donald Ponec, an interventional radiologist in Oceanside, Calif. The test results indicated she had a blocked jugular vein – and blood flow was 30 percent less than normal. Her left vein was completely blocked and the blood was flowing back into her brain, the testing showed. And as soon as doctors opened up the blockages by inserting a stent, a medical device commonly used in heart patients, Holt said he saw improvement in his wife. “She was brighter than before.

Prior to the treatment, Glen had to be awake for hours to suction saliva from Annette’s mouth as she slept so she wouldn’t suffocate. But now she can get through the night without his help."

(While the Enquirer might not be the venue we'd choose, at LEAST this fact reported by CTV is finally in the US press. Love and thanks to Annette, Glen and the Annette Funicello Research Fund.
