Taking control

If you’ve been diagnosed with a brain tumour, or someone close to you has, you’ve entered a new world. Suddenly you’re a ‘patient’ or a ‘caregiver’ – neither are roles which you’ve chosen, or for which you are trained. You’ve been flung into uncertainty so that making good decisions about what next becomes instantly more difficult. The world has become a different, unfamiliar and scary place and you can feel totally out of control.

Within the sense of loss of control there is much that can be reclaimed. brainstrust is here to help you to regain control in those areas where it is possible, and to support you to make good decisions about all aspects of your brain tumour journey, based on good and reliable information.
