Manage episode 383345836 series 3164719
In this episode of Aunty M Brain Tumour's Talk Show, Israr Jan-Parker shares her journey of being diagnosed with a Clevel Meningioma, a rare brain tumour. Initially, her diagnosis was unexpected as she had sought medical attention for chronic back pain. The tumour was affecting critical structures in her brain, causing various health issues. Israr's traumatic life events accelerated the tumour's growth, leading to severe symptoms.
Israr describes her 16-hour surgery to remove the tumour and the challenges she faced during recovery, including visual impairment, balance issues, and hearing problems. She emphasizes the importance of patience and determination in her ongoing journey to regain her independence and strength.
Israr also discusses her efforts to raise awareness and funds for Brain Tumor Research. Despite the hurdles she faces, Israr remains positive and encourages others to share their stories to help those going through similar experiences.
