Discussion in 'Lounge' started by figaro, Mar 17, 2012.

  1. I've been a bit quiet lately. There's a reason for that. I've been dating a woman for that last couple of months (we've been mates for years) but on thursday she collapsed and was told on friday that she has a brain tumour. On top of that she has a lump on her breast that she'd already had checked out, but as you can imagine we've had the worst weekend of our lives.

    But things rarely stay the same for too long. The biopsy on the breast lump, and the countless scans she's had to undergo, show that she's fine from the head down at least, and she's back home now for a few days while the specialists decide what to do about the tumour. In the meantime I've been asking around; my landlord is a retired consultant brain surgeon, handily enough, and he and another doctor friend of mine have both said she'll be absolutely fine.

    I'm meeting her 3 boys for the first time tonight, which'll be nice cos we've been keeping the relationship quiet up til now, and then I'll book a quiet weekend away somewhere romantic to cheer her up. Happy days are on the horizon again!

  10. Figaro, A mate of mine had a brain tumour removed and came through it absolutely fine. Keep looking forwards, soon it'll all be behind you both.

    I spent most of the beginning of the year in and out of hospital, good idea to book something to look forward to.

    Best of luck to you both.

  16. So sorry to hear this Fig,she must stay positive and you must stay strong for her.
    My hubbies friend had a brain tumour 17 years ago,they got most of it out and it was cancer,but there were deposits left in his brain in more than one place,after a couple of weeks of radiotherapy everything was zapped.He was convinced he was going to die.
    He's had no problems since and is happy and healthy.It's like me with my breast cancer,all I could think about was my mum,who died from it 16 years ago...BUT......the treatment they can do and the drugs they've got now are truly amazing.
    Chin up and you know where I am ;)
    She's gonna be fine :upyeah: :)
