About this listen
This two-part episode follows Emily through brain surgery for a symptomatic pineal cyst—first, immediate post-op reflections (days 1–4), then a rapid-fire follow-up just 20 days later. Emily and her mom share candid details about pain spikes, the “zipperhead club,” unexpected improvements (sensory issues, mood, empathy), and what “finding my new normal” looks like. We talk recovery curves, advocating with tumor boards, and why redefining “necessary” in brain surgery matters.
