I Found The Place: A Brand New Kara's Smore Cupcake

Welcome! I Found The Place is a multi-niche lifestyle blog.

Since May of 2018 it is also where I'm posting all updates about the diagnosis that I have bilateral (both sides), inoperable, deep thalamic and mid-brain brain tumors. This is not a confirmed diagnosis as no biopsy can/will be taken but two MRI's, neuro-oncologists, and a neurosurgeon have all referred to them as gliomas, which are a type of tumor. An additional test in August confirmed a slightly elevated choline level which also indicates tumors.

I decided rather than update via social media sites I would post here on this blog to make it easier for anyone interested to follow along. As I pursue macrobiotics to help reverse them and improve my overall health and outlook.
