    • Close Brain / CNS Tumors
      Type: Meningioma

      I have had 2 tumours removed from the base of my brain and one unsuccsessful one too. I've had one spine operation to removed a tumour too. Yeah, it sucks but it makes you stronger emotionally. Unfortuntly I have more brain operations to come. The treatment I recieve is pretty good and the doctors are great at answering my questions. The tumours have left me deaf, and I now have a catarac and I'm only 15! I also had a schwannoma.

So I wish they wouldn't, and left me be...

      It's useful but not exactly helpful.
