But it turned out I had a benign brain tumour called a colloid cyst, which is very rare – three in a million.

She furthermore added how the ‘craniotomy operation’ for the cyst is much-needed for her at this moment divulged, “It’s big for the space. It fills the space. It’s 14mm wide, and it needs to come out because if it grows, it would be bad. So I’m having it removed via a craniotomy.”
