It's not brain surgery...
I knew it wasn't over.
At 17 I had two tumors taken out of my spine and spent eight weeks in Boston at Massachusetts General Hospital getting proton radiation. I'm originally from a small suburb outside of Chicago. I remember driving home a few days after my last treatment with my Dad, pulling into our driveway, getting out of the car and he opens his arms to hug me and says "we did it". But like I said, I knew it wasn't over. That was in March of 2008.
