Hi.
I'm 36 been diagnosed with a grade 2 Oligodendroglioma. When I had my biopsy they nicked a blood vessel and caused me to have a stroke. So currently going through physio and drug management to learn how to walk again. And on top of that I have my first oncologist apt at the end of the month, when I'll be told what chemo and radiotherapy I have to have. Just feeling a bit overwhelmed by it all.
Hi Mumtotwo
I'm so sorry for all the hardship you're going through right now and at such a young age. My husband was diagnosed with lung and brain cancer in February and I still feel overwhelmed by it all so I understand how you're feeling. Just wanted to let you know you're not alone, if you want to reach out to cry / vent / chat please know I'm happy to be your shoulder.
Wishing you all the best and sending hugs
