Not as bad, but hope I have the same attitude
Good luck with the treatment, and you really have the right attitude.

Having been told for the past 5 years that I have a congenital birth defect causing partial deafness, I maintained that it was not the case. I've finally been told that its probably either an astrocytoma in my left parietal lobe, or an olidendroglioma, but due to its location, no biopsy at the moment.
It's a big kick up the arse walking into a meeting with two consultants and an oncology nurse, but I can honestly say that the NHS has some of the best people working for it, and I'll forever be in their debt. I'm signed up for as many research programmes as possible, raising money for charities relating to brain tumours, and have treated this as a clean slate for my life. Some brilliant friends and family have helped with this, and I hope I can repay them.
