"Lierhaus regretful post-Pech brain surgery: Expresses sorrow regarding medical treatment"

Monica Lierhaus, a well-known TV presenter in Germany, underwent a life-changing event in 2009 when she had to face a potentially fatal aneurysm. At the time, she was a prominent figure in the German sports broadcasting world, working for channels such as ARD, Sky, and "RTL Aktuell".

The aneurysm, which doctors believe was present since her birth, was discovered during a routine check-up. The operation to remove it was scheduled in a Hamburg clinic on January 8, 2009. The professor who operated on Lierhaus was performing his last surgery before retirement, a fact that Lierhaus now feels sorry for him due to the complications that occurred during the procedure.

Unfortunately, the operation did not go as planned. The complications during Lierhaus's surgery occurred on his last operation before retirement. As a result, Lierhaus remained in a coma for months following the operation. Doctors initially told her she would never walk again.

Despite these setbacks, Lierhaus's spirit remained unbroken. She believes no one made a mistake during her operation, but considers it bad luck. Lierhaus even expresses that she believes having a child would have likely caused her aneurysm to burst during labor, which is now viewed in a positive light given her survival.

Lierhaus's unfulfilled desire to have children had taken a backseat to her career advancement in the world of sports broadcasting. However, her experiences have given her a new perspective. She continues to work in the industry, contributing to shows like "Sportschau" and hosting TV shows.

Lierhaus's courage and resilience serve as an inspiration to many. Despite the challenges she faced, she has continued to thrive in her career and remains a beloved figure in German sports broadcasting.
