Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview: #1 When it came to cancer, I was prepared for the worst. And the worst was here. In the produce department, of all places. The first mistake. Taking my neurologist’s call on my cell phone. At Whole Foods. In the produce department. The doctor quickly explained that the most likely cause of the growth was a sarcoma—a type of tumor that originates in muscle tissue, which is why my symptoms had been so nonspecific and my scans so inconclusive. But he also said, It’s very rare for a tumor to grow this large in muscle without causing any pain or other symptoms. I nodded and repeated his words back to him, as if they were my own: It’s very rare for a tumor to grow this large in muscle without causing any pain or other symptoms. -> The most common type of brain tumor is a glioma, which is a tumor that originates in the brain’s nerve cells. They are very rare, and usually cause no symptoms. But they can grow very large without causing any pain or other symptoms. #2 I had a brain tumor, which was removed. It was benign, but it left me blind in one eye, and I have double vision. #3 The most important thing about a tumor is where it is located. #4 I was prepared for the worst when it came to cancer, and the worst was here.
