Brain / CNS Tumors Support Group
A brain tumor is any intracranial tumor created by abnormal and uncontrolled cell division, normally either found in the brain itself, in the cranial nerves, in the brain envelopes, skull, pituitary and pineal gland, or spread from cancers primarily located in other organs (metastatic tumors). Brain tumors may be benign or malignant.
Just wanted to let you know that I started a blog called Meningioma Living at meningiomablog.blogspot.com
its just a way for me to share everything I have gone through this year since being diagnosed. This board is great, but I have so much to say. Just letting everyone know they are free to check it out and leave comments if you want. If you are new to this, you can get an idea of what can happen, and if you've been going through this for awhile, maybe we have similar experiences or completely different experiences. Anyways, Its my way of sharing.

I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...

I also heard all the hype about Tuesdays with Morrie and finally read it. It really helped me with my perspective. I will continue to check in on your and your blog. Keep writing!
It was interesting to read about your experience with radiation therapy and I was reluctant to go that way myself for various reasons. Here's some information on another treatment option you may not have considered. If your tumour keeps growing keep it in mind. Here's my story to share, just published in the Australian Medical Journal:
