A Brain Tumour and Me

A brain tumour diagnosis is a traumatic and life-changing event, resulting in altered priorities as part of a “new normal” way of life for a patient and their family. In this series we’ll be meeting some of those working in the field of neuro-oncology, the people who support patients and their families and those who’ve been told they have a brain tumour. We’ll learn how brain tumours have affected all of these people, often in surprising ways. Welcome to…. A Brain Tumour and Me – a journey of inspiration, personal stories and hope.

    Series 2: Episode 1 – Miles Jupp

    The IBTA is very excited to announce the start of its second series of podcast episodes, “A Brain Tumour and Me – a journey of inspiration, personal stories and hope”. We’re thrilled that our first guest in this new series is the UK-based actor, comedian and writer Miles Jupp who is known for his many appearances on radio, television and in film. He’s played diverse roles ranging from the children’s UK TV series “Balamory” as Archie The Inventor to being cast as Emperor Francis the First in Ridley Scott’s epic movie “Napoleon” – not forgetting, too, his appearance as a TV weatherman in “Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix” and as a regular panellist on the award-winning UK TV comedy game show “Would I Lie to You?” But perhaps Miles’ most demanding role yet is being centre stage for his touring one-man show called “On I Bang” in which he provides many revealing insights into the meningioma brain tumour journey he’s been on. In this special episode our reporter Graham Seaman meets Miles on tour as he shares his story… Find out more about the International Brain Tumour Alliance at theibta.org

    Series 1: Episode 6 – Denise Bebenek

    In this latest episode of our podcast, we hear from Denise Bebenek, who lives in Toronto, Canada. How can a mother ever fully come to terms with the loss of their child?  This is something which Denise faced when she and her family were given the devastating news that her four-year-old daughter Meagan had an inoperable brain tumour.  Meagan eventually lost her life soon after her fifth birthday. In this episode, Denise talks to our reporter Graham Seaman about the effect of this tramautic event on her and her family, as well as the power of community. Her daughter’s brain tumour journey also inspired Denise to establish the not-for-profit Meagan’s Walk in 2001 - now known as Meagan’s Hug - which raises both awareness of paediatric brain tumour research and vital funds - as well as creating a Circle of Hope to support families affected by a brain tumour. “A Brain Tumour and Me” is available via Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Spotify, CastBox, Anchor and the IBTA website at www.theibta.org/podcast.

    Series 1: Episode 5 – Miranda Shipman

    Being told she had a very rare type of brain tumour at the age of just 27 is something Miranda Shipman from North Carolina in the United States certainly wasn’t expecting. But it was an event that reshaped her life in so many ways. In this episode Miranda talks to our reporter Graham Seaman about how she coped with the news of her first diagnosis and the surgery that saved her life. Miranda describes what happened when she discovered the tumour had later returned, and how she now faces the future. “A Brain Tumour and Me” is available via Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Spotify, CastBox, Anchor and the IBTA website at www.theibta.org/podcast.
