STRUGGLING PHYSICALLY, MENTALLY, AND EMOTIONALLY

At a loss with how he has to deal with both (my) condition and my emotional turmoil, I (he) fell victim to toxic positivity.

Despite my doctors’ warnings to prepare myself for a tough journey ahead, I underestimated the challenges waiting for (he) me, believing the brain surgery to be the toughest part. I thought I could breeze through this ordeal.

At the time, I think I needed to believe it.
Reality soon proved me wrong.

The surgery turned out to be just the first hurdle. Only 90 per cent of my tumour was removed — enough to prevent the risk of paralysis — which meant I still needed extensive further treatment.
