During a 3 week period in 1997 Stephanie Peters experienced nausea, dizziness, and finally neck pain before her Pediatric Brian Cancer diagnosis of Ependymoma. Stephanie will talk about that very difficult period in her life which fortunately ended with her final diagnosis in 2002. Over the last 20 years , Stephanie has managed to lead as good a life as possible, although of course she has had to deal with a number of physical side effects, as well as some psychosocial side effects as well.  Looking at Stephanie, you would never know that she has had any illness, never mind being a 4 time survivor of this disease.
