Podcast Overview

A brain tumour diagnosis is a traumatic and life-changing event, resulting in altered priorities as part of a “new normal” way of life for a patient and their family. In this series we’ll be meeting some of those working in the field of neuro-oncology, the people who support patients and their families and those who’ve been told they have a brain tumour. We’ll learn how brain tumours have affected all of these people, often in surprising ways. Welcome to…. A Brain Tumour and Me – a journey of inspiration, personal stories and hope.

Series 1: Episode 6 – Denise Bebenek

<p>In this latest episode of our podcast, we hear from Denise Bebenek, who lives in Toronto, Canada.</p> <p>How can a mother ever fully come to terms with the loss of their child? &nbsp;This is something which Denise faced when she and her family were given the devastating news that her four-year-old daughter Meagan had an inoperable brain tumour. &nbsp;Meagan eventually lost her life soon after her fifth birthday. In this episode, Denise talks to our reporter Graham Seaman about the effect of this tramautic event on her and her family, as well as the power of community. Her daughter’s brain tumour journey also inspired Denise to establish the not-for-profit Meagan’s Walk in 2001 - now known as Meagan’s Hug - which raises both awareness of paediatric brain tumour research and vital funds - as well as creating a Circle of Hope to support families affected by a brain tumour.</p> <p>“A Brain Tumour and Me” is available via <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/a-brain-tumour-and-me/id1593414098"><strong>Apple Podcasts</strong></a>, <a href="https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9hbmNob3IuZm0vcy83MWE1NTFkOC9wb2RjYXN0L3Jzcw"><strong>Google Podcasts</strong></a>, <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/615FbDRpftUUIZZEwRBa3Z"><strong>Spotify</strong></a>, <a href="https://castbox.fm/app/castbox/player/id4653143"><strong>CastBox</strong></a>, <a href="https://anchor.fm/theibta"><strong>Anchor</strong></a> and the IBTA website at <a href="https://theibta.org/podcast/"><strong>www.theibta.org/podcast</strong></a>.</p>

<p>Being told she had a very rare type of brain tumour at the age of just 27 is something <strong>Miranda Shipman</strong> from North Carolina in the United States certainly wasn’t expecting. But it was an event that reshaped her life in so many ways.</p> <p>In this episode Miranda talks to our reporter Graham Seaman about how she coped with the news of her first diagnosis and the surgery that saved her life. Miranda describes what happened when she discovered the tumour had later returned, and how she now faces the future.</p> <p>“A Brain Tumour and Me” is available via <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/a-brain-tumour-and-me/id1593414098" target="_blank"><strong>Apple Podcasts</strong></a>, <a href="https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9hbmNob3IuZm0vcy83MWE1NTFkOC9wb2RjYXN0L3Jzcw" target="_blank"><strong>Google Podcasts</strong></a>, <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/615FbDRpftUUIZZEwRBa3Z" target="_blank"><strong>Spotify</strong></a>, <a href="https://castbox.fm/app/castbox/player/id4653143" target="_blank"><strong>CastBox</strong></a>, <a href="https://anchor.fm/theibta" target="_blank"><strong>Anchor</strong></a> and the IBTA website at <a href="https://theibta.org/podcast/" target="_blank"><strong>www.theibta.org/podcast</strong></a>.</p>
