Olivia Das, a 42-year-old architect and...
Olivia Das, a 42-year-old architect and mother of two, began experiencing debilitating migraines with visual auras that disrupted her work and family life. The headaches were accompanied by episodes of numbness in her right hand, making it difficult to draw. After a routine MRI revealed a small, benign meningioma pressing on her occipital lobe, her neurologist, Dr. Evans, recommended a minimally invasive craniotomy to remove the tumor and prevent further symptoms. Olivia was terrified of brain surgery, fearing she wouldn't be the same for her children. The procedure itself was under general anesthesia, and she remembers only the anxiety beforehand. The recovery involved a week in the hospital with some initial dizziness and headache, followed by several weeks of rest at home. Post-surgery, her migraines and numbness completely resolved. The emotional journey was profound; pre-surgery, she felt her identity as a capable professional and parent was under threat. Afterwards, she felt immense relief and a new gratitude for her health, returning to her drafting table with a renewed sense of clarity and purpose.
