I am 33. My husband and I just got married a couple of weeks ago. He’s great. I’m in love. I love my career way more than I thought I would. Things were going great. <br><br>I just have been having issues with my left leg lately. It’s numb and weak. I can’t walk well. I went to the doctor yesterday and they said I have a brain tumor. They think it’s glioblastoma; the kind that kills you. It’ll progress and I’ll fall into a coma and then die.<br><br>I’m going to put my head down and work until I can… But I wanted to ask people here about that. I just got a big promotion at my law firm. I love it, but it’s a lot of work. Is it worth it? I got it so I could take care of my husband in the long run, but that isn’t going to happen. I also want to travel and I don’t know how much time I have left, I feel like I can’t take a day off. <br><br>I’m sorry. I actually wrote them a list of my symptoms and my husband has to give it to a neuro oncologist at 9 am. I want them to hurry up so I can know what’s happening. I’m mad that I won’t get to grow old with the guy I love. I’m mad I won’t get to see my niece grow up. I don’t want to die.
