JJoy you are not alone and are experiencing very similar emotions to me. I too have a wonderful husband who is trying so hard to cope with this.

I too have a grade 3 and it was a large (5cm ) tumour which really scares me too. If you would like to add me as a contact to keep in touch, please do. I will upload a photo soon :)
