Yet, through it all, she’s leaned on community, humour, and resilience to keep going. With support from Brainstrust and the kindness of her neurosurgical secretary, Julia now shares her practical tips and hard-earned wisdom for navigating life after surgery. She knows she’s one of the lucky ones—and she’s here to help others find strength in the face of uncertainty. #BrainTumourAwareness #Meningioma #BrainTumourAwarenessMonthDISCLAIMERAny of the sites under Claire Bullimore or Aunty M Brain Tumours is not intended to provide and does not constitute medical, legal, or other professional advice.
