Our doctor had scheduled us an appointment that week with a neuro surgeon. The first neuro surgeon referred us to another. Just two weeks later we met Dr. Bruce Mickey a neuro surgeon at UT Southwestern in Dallas, TX.
He told us that this tumor was on the outer layer of her brain and was causing some swelling and other symptoms. He said it was slow growing and they really couldn't say how long it had been there but probably at least 3 years.
Dr. Mickey said this needed to be removed. After her recovery he would put us in touch with an oncologist who had just moved down here from Boston.
