I can only hope the best for you and outcome is in your favor. I had a
large tumor removed, no choice kind of thing. A lot of what you went
through and put it in your 📫 happened to me also. Especially the seizures
and headaches and so much more. Will be 69 this year and am blessed to
have survived. Mine was cancer and a frontal lobe, right. A family of
awesome support and prayer chains. What a fight to make it through, but I
fight for it every day. Sounds like you're a fighter to. I wish you nothing
but the best for you and you're family's

Thank you for the kind words. Yes I am a fighter just like my son. This month he celebrated 15 years in remission and will also turn 17.

How did you get anyone to listen to you and nd not just tell you that “it’s just a meningioma, they aren’t cancerous”. After 3 years of “just a meningioma” (right front cortex) that went from 8mm to to 3cm, and a TIA, they just found another spot in my. Left side that they confirmed was hydrocephalus and increased atrophy. I have a terrible time with recall and remembering words, it’s taken me 10 minutes just to write this. I hate getting blown own off 😢
