Mosher’s Memoirs – Molly – Mosh against the Malignant

It’s time for another Mosher’s Memoirs and our latest story comes from Molly. Thank you for sharing, we’ll let you tell it in your own words.

“My names Molly, I was diagnosed all the way back during my gsces in school. I randomly went blind in my left eye and for months the hospital said it was due to stress from my exams until my mom contested it and I finally got sent for a scan.

Turns out I had a brain tumour called a Craniopharyngioma. A rare tumour that although is benign is classed as a brain cancer due to the severity of where it is and the damage it does.

I was sent for surgery at BCH 2 days later. For 15 years I have now been battling this tumour. (I am 30 in July so half my life!) It has returned multiple times, I’ve had brain surgery 5 times now, and I had a second radiotherapy 6 months ago which brings me all the way up to today. If this radiotherapy finally works then fantastic but if it doesn’t and I have regrowth we are now out of nhs options. And I’m not ready to stop yet!!!!
