I would have done whatever they recommended although I was relieved not to face radiation treatment. My son who authorized the surgery when I lay unconscious from the bleeding meningioma had told me that they told him I had only a 1 in 10 chance of a meaningful life after the surgery. I figured that group had helped me beat the odds already and I would not second guess them. On what basis no radiation was decided, I don’t know.

I would have leaned more toward radiation treatment had the radiation oncologist recommended it. We’ll see what Dr. Second Opinion has to say. Right now I just want to enjoy being back to normal. I wasn’t unconscious but the pressure from the tumor had me semiconscious and unable to function.
