Sarah54, I feel really sad for you that you are having such a difficult time. it must be really hard to even start to think about having Stage 4, having a brain tumor, and having to have this operation. And easy to let everyone else's needs and arrangements matter more than you getting the medical treatment and information sessions you need asap. But how can your family sit back and let you get such a bad deal?
It is understandably too hard for you to fight your way through the system effectively to organise a callback at a reasonable time for yourself in the face of it all that is going on for you. And like you could really use some help.
Is there someone in your family who can put your needs first and give you a break from cooking meals and childcare as you approach the op, and help you organise a proper talk with the surgeon before your operation at a time that suits you?
