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.

Everyone’s story is slightly different. I was totally functional, taking care of my husband with Alzheimer’s and working a full-time job from home until the moment I knew to call emergency and say, “I think I’m having a stroke.” I woke up 2 days later in the neuro ICU, very fuzzy. I asked my neurologist how long it would take me to recover and he said 18 months. And he was right.
