Dealing with a benign brain tumour and reassuring family and friends. Mine was diagnosed late 2021, having taken early retirement due to a fall at work that affects my back. I have been open with close family and friends and research has helped somewhat.

My consultant assured me that at present I'm safe to fly, as I have a son in Oz and I'm itching to visit him before too long. Does anyone have any further advice please

Many thanks. JDeb
