As a brain tumor patient, I wanted to learn about my tumor. But I couldn't, I had lost my vision.
Through my journey, I wanted to tell family & friends about my tumor so they could understand what has happening & help everyone feel at ease. But, I couldn't because we had to act fast due to the size of the tumor. After surgery, I decided I would create a podcast to tell about my own journey and with an open invitation for other brain tumor patients to share their stories.
My mission as a survivor of a Pituitary Macroadenoma is to help uplift other patients & families as they navigate the unknown.
