Let me preface this by saying that I truly believe in fate and what happened to me was meant to be. I have experienced every emotion, which a human can have some I liked but most I didn’t. Staying as positive as I could throughout this entire experience was very important to help me through the struggles of being told “you have a brain tumor…but it’s benign?” (Is that supposed to give me comfort?)
