@organizedchaos04 i agree about vascular issues affecting the two. My husband and a maternal first cousin (same ave exactly) both had mid level aortic ascending aneurysm. The cousin who was a weight lifter and heavy exerciser had a dissection. He also now has a descending aortic aneurysm and two abdominal aneurysms.
His dad had an aneurysm rupture - not know where but it was in his thoracic cavity.
My husband’s mother had giant cell arteritis and died from a second hemorrhagic brain stroke.

@hsminc Thank you for your reply. I am so sorry that your family is dealing with all of this. I met with the cardiologist yesterday and she said that there is no connection between brain and aortic or abdominal aneurysms. My research and experience such as yours tells me otherwise. Wishing you all the best.
