why don't I feel that this is serious?

Hi Lynn,

Sorry to hear about your mri results- how awful to have to wait for 2mths and get tested again.It's hard enough going through chemo let alone dealing with the unknown brain growth.But we must cling to the positive and a meningioma growth means it is outside the brain but in the lining so to speak.Many years ago I worked in a neurosurgical unit and the odds of it being a benign growth are in your favour.Something like 10%of the population are walking around with aneurysms and the likes in their head and never know it.We are lucky to have such loving husbands(32yrs for me) and supportive family and friends. I don't know how women face this on their own.In the coming weeks you will be up and down ,no doubt,but a good cry helps.I will be thinking of you and hoping chemo goes ok for you.
