A Happy Ependymoma Story

Ependymoma stories don’t always end up with happy endings, but here is a story I read while back in Michigan for the Thanksgiving holiday.

According to Zlati Meyer, the Detroit Free Press staff writer, “The nightmare began after a week of nonstop vomiting misdiagnosed by their pediatrician.” Only after they took their young child to Helen DeVos Children's Hospital in Grand Rapids did a doctor suspect something was wrong after feeling that the soft spot on Abby's head was puffy. It was the day Abby turned 10 months old.”

Meyer goes on to report that “A CAT scan revealed a brain tumor wrapped around her brain stem -- an ependymoma that physicians theorized formed in utero and is very rare in a child so young. The Greers were told to give their daughter a kiss, because she'd be put into a medically induced coma for several days before what would be a 12 1/2-hour surgery to remove the tumor.”

Yes, you read that right, twelve and a half hours. My surgery was, gee, about half that long and I thought that was forever.

Her dad, Brandon Greer remembered when, shortly thereafter in the intensive care unit, he knew things would be OK. "I kissed her toes ... and she giggled. It was her first reaction. She had a little smile on her face. I never cried so hard in my life. I knew my baby was coming back to me."

Now it that doesn’t hit you in your soft spot, you don’t have one.

As a sign of gratitude for how my husband was saved from pineal cyst , i decided to reach out to those still suffering from this.
My husband was diagnosed of pineal cyst, and it was really tough and heartbreaking for me because he was my all and the symptoms were terrible, he had weakness of the body , and he always complain of ringing in ears (tinnitus) and headache . we tried various therapies prescribed by our neurologist but none could cure him.one faithful day i decided to go for a researched and i saw a testimony by someone who was cured and so many other with similar brain problem, and he left the contact of the doctor who had the cure to pineal cyst. I never imagine pineal cyst has a cure not until i contacted him and he assured me my husband will be fine. I got the herbal medication he recommended and my husband used it and in one months time he was fully okay even up till this moment he is so full of life. pineal cyst has a cure and it is a herbal cure contact the doctor for more info on drwilliams098675@gmail.com on how to get the medication. Thanks for reading my testimony

Looking for natural medicine to pineal cyst without any side effect Dr. Williams is the best because it has no side effect, After my son being diagnosed of pineal cyst in 2010, I have used numerous medicine for him with no improvement. He spent most of the summer in the hospital. I remember him feeling abandoned and terrified of the many injection needles that seemed necessary to keep him calm. All Western Medicine used in the past did not have any noticeable difference,one day as i was going through the internet i came across so many people with different disease testifying about dr williams herbal remedies,i ordered for my son pineal cyst on line through dr williams,that's when he started using dr williams Herbal Medicine,and now is completely cured from pineal cyst , his medicine is really a permanent cure to pineal cyst, for more info contact (drwilliams098675@gmail.com for advice and for his product

I recently have some difficult conversations and I did what a lot of people do when they want to know more about something. I googled it. I came across Dr Williams herbal medicine on YouTube so many people thanking him about his good work. I also have pineal cyst. I wasn’t running all over God’s creation with every man I could find but here I am. I have felt bad about myself for so many years now because of my pineal cyst status. I obviously still have some self-accepting to do but I want to thank Dr Williams for everything he have done for my life ,after taking Dr Williams medicine i was completely free from pineal cyst within one month of usage, I think what you are doing is so admirable. you have helped me a lot! I want to definitely reach out to you and thank you for your amazing work. You are a good person, and an extremely talented man. You have helped millions with your herbs, and have really inspired me,and i pray you still continue doing the good work.you can also email him on drwilliams098675@gmail.com for help
