Cranial radiation required.

I've had several MRI's completed since my craniotomy two years ago. The most recent one indicates my residual brain tumour (the smaller part which is tightly wrapped around several facial nerves & my brain stem) is growing. My oncologist highly recommends five radiation treatments and is optimistic this will cease further growth. I begin the treatments soon and am hopeful he is right. Fortunately, the tumour is non-cancerous and am feeling strong. I am very lucky, compared to some.
