Just wanted to let you know that I started a blog called Meningioma Living at meningiomablog.blogspot.com
its just a way for me to share everything I have gone through this year since being diagnosed. This board is great, but I have so much to say. Just letting everyone know they are free to check it out and leave comments if you want. If you are new to this, you can get an idea of what can happen, and if you've been going through this for awhile, maybe we have similar experiences or completely different experiences. Anyways, Its my way of sharing.

" Hi Propgirl! I just read your blog. I think it is fantastic. I think it would be very theraputic to write about your journey. I had a meningioma taken out on Sept. 26/07. I have been told I will have a good outcome, yet I still feel depressed at times, so I appreciate your honesty about emotions. By the way, Dan In Real Life is my latest favourtie movie, too.
I also heard all the hype about Tuesdays with Morrie and finally read it. It really helped me with my perspective. I will continue to check in on your and your blog. Keep writing! "

" Hi,
It was interesting to read about your experience with radiation therapy and I was reluctant to go that way myself for various reasons. Here's some information on another treatment option you may not have considered. If your tumour keeps growing keep it in mind. Here's my story to share, just published in the Australian Medical Journal:
