My Worst Day

On March 18, 2020, I started having focal seizures while working the late shift at work. I went home, went to bed, and when I woke up, I could not see. We went to the hospital. I was admitted and told I had a large marble-sized tumor on my optic nerve. COVID was going on all around me, and my husband was not allowed with me. I went through the biopsy and was told it was stage 4 glioblastoma, and I had approximately 9 months. It’s been 4 years, and I’m still fighting.
