2 Time Brain Cancer Survivor

Amy Jones
by Amy Jones

I was first diagnosed in 2010. I had surgery to remove a golf ball size tumor from my right frontal lobe. After surgery I had hemiperisis and couldn’t move anything on my left side. At the time, my kids were 1 and 4. I followed up with radiation and chemo. I then had an MRI every 3-6 months and in 2022 was diagnosed with my 2nd brain tumor. I went through another surgery to remove the tumor and more radiation and chemo.
