It's wonderful to hear from you, and that your surgery went well. What a relief that the tumour was benign!

All I can say is that the early morning sun on my face with my fluffy pup at my feet is the most precious and valuable feeling. That says it all right there!!

this is an amazing update with the very best news!! I'm so glad for you that the tumour was benign & non cancerous - but holy crap the size of a lemon!!! Take care of yourself and yes be prepared for a roller coaster of emotions for both yourself & your family. It's a lot to deal with!

I literally have tears in my eyes reading your post.
I’m so thankful the stars all aligned and you had the care you needed, when you needed it. What a blessing!!
I work in the medical device industry and when I talk about how exciting the things we have developed over the course of my career are, eyes glaze over.
The device I support is a competitor to the cyber knife, but it is a healthy competition in which real people win. I’m thrilled you are navigating this channel of scary life, with excellent GPS.
I hope tomorrow brings you a lot of smiles and support!

The surgery sounds like it was terrifying. So happy you had an awesome surgeon! Good luck with getting the rest of the tumor removed! So happy that your headaches have been alleviated!

I’m so happy for you!!!!
This reminds me of my husband! He was diagnosed 10 years ago with a brain tumor at the base of his cerebellum. He had been having problems with dizziness, headaches and getting lightheaded. His doctor was very flippant about what it could be. One day he was put with a training doctor at the office and luckily that doctor wasn’t as casual. He signed my husband up for an MRI and that is when they found the tumor. It was the size of a racquetball. This Doctor who was in training put a team together at a hospital in our city. This team was made up of an amazing surgeon who is actually very sought after! He was open and honest and told us from the very beginning he expected it to be a very aggressive cancer. We are blessed with the fact that it turned out to be benign. When pathology gave that initial report to him while he was in surgery he did everything he could to get all of the tumor. My husband just had his 10 year check up and the surgeon said his brain looks “big and robust”. He is considered cured. We are so very blessed by this. We were told had my husband waited even a week longer most likely the tumor would have killed him because of how it was pressing against the brain stem. I am so thankful for the doctor who was “in training”. My husband deals with some side effects, but over all he is back at life and so happy with how this turned out.
I will keep sending you positive thoughts!!!! This is a terrific place to be after such a scare!

What a great update. I’m so glad that you are improving daily. I’m just in shock that you were walking around with a tumor that large and functioning in any way. I wish you continued recovery!
