Always be positive

Published on September 6, 2016 in Share Your Story

Twenty five years ago , I was diagnosed with a tumor that the radiologist suggested leaving alone as it was probably slow growing. I elected for surgery at JHH and fortunately had an acoustic neuroma- benign and only lost hearing in one ear . Several years ago, I had a sudden seizure and was diagnosed with a very small meningioma which we watch by MRI and it has not grown. I am one of the fortunate people and have decided to walk, along with my family, to support and help those who were or are not as lucky as me. I spent most of my adult life in the art and practice of medicine and everyone needs a helping hand at some time .I will do my part and hope that others help by donations or any means of support.
