My Story

My journey began when I was 26.  I was driving home after dropping some stuff off at work with my then 1 year old.  I began to feel a really weird sensation, so I pulled over.  That’s the last thing that I remember until I woke up at home in bed that night.  Somehow I had made it 20 miles back home and put myself and my son to bed.  After we figured out that I had a seizure, I had some testing done.  I found out several days later that I had a rather large brain tumor.  Surgery followed soon after that.  The surgeon was only able to remove part of the tumor.  The tumor remained stable until I was able to find another surgeon the following year who was able to remove the entire thing.  At that time, we were told that there was an 87% chance that it would not come back in the next 10 years.  Well, I lowered that statistic by having it recur 2 years later, which was a year ago.  I had another surgery in February of 2008, but not only had it upgraded to a grade 3, part of the tumor had become inoperable.  It was recommended that I start chemo and radiation ASAP, but I chose to go down the homeopathic road first.  This site documents that journey.
