I was recently diagnosed with a low grade glioma brain tumour, which was removed at the end of November, it was close to my motor function strip on the right hand side of my brain, when I woke up from surgery I had no movement on the left hand side of my body. I had to push myself to do the simplest of tasks, like brushing my hair to walking again. I was very lucky to have found my tumour early and to have such amazing support from my surgeon, Physio therapists, Occupational Therapists and most importantly my amazing family & friends. This is a charity close to my heart and I am hoping to raise awareness and hopefully raise some money for an amazing charity.
