    Ep 07. Empathy Loss & Bereavement

    In this episode I discuss how my operation seems to have led to a loss of empathy as well as short term memory. I have been unable to grieve for the loss of my Mum in Law or even cry. I feel the sadness and the pain of the loss but cannot express it.

    Ep 05. Hospital stays, bereavement and insomnia.

    What a few days we’ve had. Mum in law passed away which means that we will be moving home again in 2023. I’ve ended up back in hospital due to an infection of my operation site and my hospital stay has ruined my sleep cycles again. Some how we are staying positive. My operation was a success despite how tough the start of this year has been for us. Onwards and upwards!

    Ep 03. Hello World my brain tumour has been minimised.

    Just 4 days after my Craniotomy I managed to go for a walk this morning, a beautiful sunny Christmas Eve in Harrogate. Felt good to be alive & my recovery is happening faster than after my operation to remove a meningioma back on February when I was bed ridden for over a week. I even cooked sausage sandwiches for the family this morning, only four days post operation. Pleased with that!

    Ep 01. Introductions, my brain tumours , Craniotomy Pre-operation Anxiety and Cancellation Worries

    Hi.  In this first episode I chat about pre-operation anxiety and cancellation worries for my brain tumour operation and for a very good reason!  I'm currently just a matter of days away from my second major operation to remove a brain tumour, this time a craniotomy to remove a Glioma.  Back in February I underwent a 5 hour operation to remove a Meningioma from my Brian stem. Although maybe an odd place to start the series, you might have expected me to start by discussing a diagnosis, it is a subject very much on my mind right now! Stu
