Hm. I've been trying to clean/pick up around here and came across a large manila envelope. Upon looking inside, I was surprised to see x-rays, or more precisely CT scan or MRI negatives. The date on these was 1981. These are from when they found my brain tumor when I was 11 (originally, they called it a cyst). Huh. A lot of things are scattered around here, but I sure wasn't expecting to find this out in the open.

Wow, that is interesting. Did they remove the tumor?

Yes. I had about two months of radiation treatments after that.

I'm surprised they gave you (or your mom, more likely) the negatives. So now you have absolute proof that you have a brain.

That's amazing. I am surprised you still had those.

My Mom kept a lot of things--but to be honest, I'm a bit surprised that these didn't get thrown out when I moved.
