Episode 3: Stacy's Story

from Lucky Brain Tumor Podcast · host Emily Truell

In this episode of the Lucky Brain Tumor Podcast, Stacy shares her story of how she was experiencing symptoms while pregnant and was diagnosed with an acoustic neuroma brain tumor when her baby was just a couple weeks old. Unusually, her tumor was growing somewhat quickly so she chose to do retrosigmoid surgery during her child's first year of life. From describing the challenge of brain surgery as the mother of two very young children to the hope and support she found in community, Stacy's story reminds us how challenging times can lead to a better version of ourselves.#acousticneuroma #vestibularschwannoma #braintumor #acousticneuromawarrior
