Just wanna get out some of my feelings, thoughts, experiences and all the crap in between. It's up to you if you wanna have a peak and read it.

The Brain bit for People that wanna know
I have a Diffuse Astrosytoma Grade II (Low Grade Glioma).
It is on the Left side of my frontal lobe.
Have had a biopsy to confirm prognosis.
Surgeons have said its too risky to operate (so basically inoperable).
As a result of the tumour I suffer with epilepsy, simple partial seizures & generalised seizures. I am currently on 2 different AED's and am living with uncontrolled epilepsy.
Treatment: Wait and see, get scanned every 6 mnths.

Jane, I bet you always wanted soft hair, just not like this...lol. We found that hair did come back everywhere, just thicker where the soft little hairs came back first. If you plan on growing your hair long again, the thin patches won't show very much at all.
ReplyDeleteNew hat has been cast on and I will be working away at it this weekend!
