here is MY story:
For 15+ years I have had a small meningioma, 1.5 cm., in the parietal lobe that has done nothing! it was diagnosed at University of California Davis.
INTHE LAST MONTH (March 2025) my head grew one that went from zero to nearly 4cm.
that is scheduled to be removed surgically this month BECAUSE of the size, location, rate of growth.
Previously I had a stage 3 astrocytoma, the size of a golf ball with radiation afterwards, from which I recovered 40 yrs ago. that surgery took over 12 hours! This is reported to only take 3 hrs.

I suggest that a person not worry. with 21century technology, most anything is safe and doable! Good luck to all!

Great advice! You definitely seem to be a person who sees the glass as "half full" rather than "half empty." Good for you! Sending well-wishes your way for your upcoming surgery.
