My Story
Stephane Sousa
My name is Stephanie Sousa and I live in Norwich CT USA.
Specific location of tumor is 3D Venitical
Treatment Type(s) all started april 29th 2004 two brain surgerys so far and
the gammknife radation on 11-02-04.
Currently I have received radiation and my tumor is still there. I will see at my next six month appt were I stand with the MRI they say it should work just have to wait and see.
My current Neurological Deficits are a very poor memory, problems with balance, vison processing (which is as if I were seeing something but not knowing what it is.)
I still feel like a lab rat and do not know
where I stand and wish I had more info thats why I joined this group. I would like to find out more about medications for the depression that I have which is severe.
I am not working at this time and I am
fighting to get my disibility.
If anyone eles has stoped working and done this, you know how hard the process is to work through. They have denied me once but I have lawyer now and hope now to receive approval.
No one eles but "lucky" me has had a brain tumor in my family. "Doc says I am
a rare bird" to have this tumor and where it is located. (on my brain stem)
