Living With Oligodendroglioma Brain CancerBy Marlene HyltonLength44m
About this audiobook
There are moments in life that change everything.
For our family, that moment came when my son, Steven, suddenly collapsed and was rushed to the hospital. What began as an ordinary day quickly became the beginning of a journey that would test our faith, our strength, and our determination in ways we never imagined.
Soon after, Steven was diagnosed with oligodendroglioma, a rare form of brain cancer. The news was devastating. At one point, he was given a prognosis that suggested he might have only six months to live.
Hearing those words changed our lives forever.
Yet Steven refused to give up.
What followed was not a six-month story. It became a journey spanning more than fifteen years, seventeen brain surgeries, countless medical appointments, treatments, setbacks, victories, and lessons that our family will never forget.
