How do you not let a brain tumor take over your life?

Pleu, you are very early in the discovery phase of your brain tumor (meningioma) journey. I think it is completely normal that this new diagnosis seeps into your thoughts unbeckoned while at work, at the gym, upon waking, etc. The next phase of learning about treatments and starting treatment is also intense.
I think @tlosborne @susanaz and @hamillc2 can relate and hopefully will share their experiences of getting through the diagnosis and treatment stages.
Pleu, what helps keep you focused?

TBH, solving problems has always been my focus. Creating paths to an end, mapping out the route and bringing on the tracking metrics and charts. I can’t get my hands around those things for this. What keeps me focused on that is finding the solution and knowing there is one. I am really the wrong personality type for this! Couldn’t have picked a worse set of traits if I had to choose. I am actually that weirdo at work who enjoys those things and would have an hour long meeting on the historical importance of data tracking and metrics. (Lucky for everyone else, this has never been approved!)
