Yay! I am so glad! And you seem to be doing remarkably well given the amount of brain mass they had to remove. Human bodies are incredible!

That's what they say. Tumor (grade 1) was about the size of a golf ball. Just to give you some perspective on size. They have to remove everything that touched it. So imagine a box surrounding a golf ball and that's what is missing from my brain
I'm no dr but I think it's because I've had the tumor since in utero it just grew and grew until it created a symptom I paid attention to so my brain just learned to work around it. The brain is so weird

Yep. After the cut the fucker out and dissected it, they found it to be a type of tumor that develops in utero. It's a Dysembryoplastic Neuroepilitheal tumor. Apparently it's a very rare type of tumor. Lucky me!
