Perhaps this is common knowledge but I thought Tumor and Cancer were synonymist but one is benign while the other metastasizes. The correct definition is a Tumor is either benign or cancerous.

At 1:20 in the video is Dr. Joseph Maroon I Neurosurgeon | Expert | Athlete I Pittsburgh Steelers Team Physician. But first, two links to his Bios. He and Dr. Kris Smith share the same approach to patient health and healing. Dr. Maroon appears again later in the video.

Watch on Youtube.
The young woman at 0:45 is a PHD Scientist and her research is on diet to cure cancer. A lot more than the title suggest!

Okay, my last (EDIT: 3) videos on this subject!
The keto diet improves quality of life for patients with multiple health issues.
Likely will help with many other Tumors

Hadn't heard of that one before. Sounds like they'll put a stent (tube) in there so the cerebro-spinal-fluid flow is not blocked by the cyst. That will keep the CSF pressure properly regulated. I think this is going to be a successful repair job. We're all thankful neurosurgery has come a long ways.

Comment: kristi marcus, 4 years ago
I did Dr. Longo's fast with my second rounds of full strength chemo. My blood work was almost normal after the second round. I went right back to work and the cancer is long gone. It has been 1.5 years.

My aunt had neck surgery years ago by renown Gamma Knife Neurosurgeon and Professor from UCSF so that is why I know about this method.

You know, we here know that transmission fluid is not lifetime of the vehicle. MVS bucks the trend and calls out the experts and manufacturer on incorrect info, poor design and inability to find solutions.
Ketone is Key with Tumors. With that my last two cents and praying regardless the approach that it will go well with Matt.

Hi Matt, I am truly sorry to hear this. But it sounds like you are getting well informed to make smart decisions.
Nevertheless, you will be in my prayers.
