Started Walking Today

Next day I was up and walking around the nurses station. The doctor saw me and was surprised to see me up and walking around already. I returned to my room to rest and he came in to see me and could not believe I was up and about the day after surgery.

Surgery Day

   I was taken into surgery today.  When it was over the doctor came out and told Bob and his dad that everything went fine and he got all of the tumor out.  He also said it was towards the surface and encapsulated so it was easier to remove. The doctor said that those type of tumors are usually not cancerous and  they were going to send it out to get analyzed to be sure it was okay.

Oh No! I Can't Believe It's Happening To Me


Today was a day that would change my life forever.  I was in bed all day and wasn't really alert about what was going on.  My husband would wake me up to take my pills for my seizures but afterwards I would just go back to sleep.  That night I had a seizure and didn't wake up from it like normal.  So my husband called the ambulance and the paramedics took me to Sarasota Memorial Hospital. When I arrived at the hospital I started to come to by the time I Got to the ER I was awake.  The doctors requested to do a MRI and a CAT scan.  They found a tumor on the  left side of my brain.  It was called a Glioblastoma stage 4.  The doctors said that it was the most aggressive tumor so they sent me to Intensive Care and said they would have to operate to remove it.
