@mytumorsandme, I'm tagging fellow members like @mkoch @cscmaryann @patbaret @nancye3 @lisakuehl @jmb73 @pegorr @lindajean @IndianaScott to share with you.
The emotional and psychological side of living with multiple brain tumors is tough. I understand how isolating, fearful, and exhausting this all must be. You are not alone.
Have you considered asking about a social worker to talk to? A lot of people don't know about this option. You can read more here:

But back to you. How are you doing today?

Colleen, I tried to reply to @mytumorsandme but I think it went in this thread. Is there a way you can fix it. I'm sorry I don't know how. peg
Hi all, Hope everyone is hanging in there! As a longtime watch and wait multiple left frontal tumor patient, I find it best for me to not dwell on the fact I have them. I follow my Docs advice on keeping up with my scans, but other than when it is time to do them, I focus on all the other aging problems that I can control with trying to stay active as possible and in a healthy weight so I can enjoy my present life. Every day is a gift and I tell myself that every morning to keep my spirits as bright as possible!!

Hi Colleen, Thank you so much for the info. It's indeed a bit rough. I have also been diagnosed with psoriadic arthritis, which is also no fun. Trying to figure out how to turn all this into lemonade. The best I can do is cool-ade:-) Thanks again for all you do for us. Peg
