I was born with meningioma. In fact a very malicious one that mutated twice and long story short.... I ended up with a tumor that was the first of its kind doctors had ever seen.
It was also very aggressive. and it was "eating" my bones.
Doctors had written me off, no one believed I will survive. They gave me a max of 3 months to live. No one wanted to take the responsibility of that surgery. No hospital would give us a OP to perform the surgery. Back then the best hospitals in the world where contacted. No one offered to help.... No one wanted to have the death of a 3yr old in their records.
I had a guardian angel who send me one Doctor who was brave enough to face the unknown. Although my surgery was very risky. Apart from the risk of dying there where other risks too, like ending up hemiplegic or not being able to communicate (loss of speech, loss of sight, etc) and other stuff like that.
20 years later I'm still here. I made it... I won the fight!
You can win it too... I believe that you can.
Wish you all the best and keep on there, don't give up, don't ever give up!
