Know Hows
When living with a brain tumour diagnosis, lots of things can suddenly feel like they are out of our control and it can be difficult to know where to turn and what to focus on. These Know Hows cover a range of topics designed to help you take control of what is happening at the moment and develop strategies to help you to find a way forward.
How to find a new normal
If you can find a new normal following a brain tumour diagnosis, it means that you can own the situation, take control and live with the life you want.
This Know How will explore what this means and some strategies to help you find a way forward.
Dealing with the overwhelm
When situations change, it is hard to know which way to turn. Things that you did so easily suddenly become overwhelming. If you are a person living with a brain tumour, there may also be changes in your ability to function as you used to. Some things are within your power to change. Some are not. This Know How is designed to help you understand the difference, and prioritise the things that you can have an impact on.
