Healing Takes Time

A brain tumor was discovered deep in the vermis of my cerebellum after an MRI due to symptoms of vertigo and vomiting.

Within a few days of diagnosis I had my first brain surgery and then a second surgery where they removed some of my brain to get it all out.

I had to learn to walk again and I now have double vision.

But I am back working after 1 year post opp

Everything changed

It made a massive difference, so I didn’t feel so lonely

Not only does it affect the individual but it affects everyone else as well.

We do heal but it takes time

I speak about it now for it is important
