Hi so my wife was recently suffering from migraines, which wasn't uncommon, but this time they lasted a few days. We called the GP on day 4 and later that day we thought she was suffering from a stroke, due to her suffering from facial paralysis on her left side of her face.
she was admitted to hospital and after a CT scan she was diagnosed with a brain tumour. 4 days later she had surgery to remove the tumour, which was later diagnosed as a stage 4 Glioblastoma. Sadly, she also suffered a stroke and we were told she would not be able to have any further treatment as her condition was not strong enough and she then passed away just 7 days later on the 30th November.
due to the whole covid situation I wasn't allowed to see her when she was at her most conscious and only saw her when she was in an induced coma and when she passed away.
we have a 3 year old daughter and I'm just lost. We didn't get to discuss what was happening. She had no real symptoms, and when she showed her first visible symptom she died just 11 days later.
they said it was a high grade tumour and it grew in 4-6 weeks.
my whole world was ripped away in less than 2 weeks and I just can't comprehend what has happened.
