Let's Talk About Brain Tumours

Episode 13 - 3am Awake Club

Volunteer Andy Tudor talks about how being diagnosed with a meningioma five years ago has affected his life. Andy has come up with some creative solutions for some of the side effects of his brain tumour, including coping with insomnia. In a bid to keep the night-time "thought demons" away he set up a social media account and he&amp;aposs built up a following of thousands by sharing positive messages when he wakes in the wee small hours. It&amp;aposs become the 3am Awake Club!  You can find Andy on Twitter here <a href="https://twitter.com/AndyHTudor1?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor">@AndyHTudor1</a> You can find more information about the side effects of a brain tumour here <a href="https://www.thebraintumourcharity.org/living-with-a-brain-tumour/side-effects/">https://www.thebraintumourcharity.org/living-with-a-brain-tumour/side-effects/</a><a href="https://bettersafethantumour.com/">Better Safe Than Tumour</a> <a href="https://www.thebraintumourcharity.org/living-with-a-brain-tumour/get-support/benefits-clinic/">Money Advice Clinic</a>If you would like to speak to a member of our support team you can call 0808 800 0004 or email support@thebraintumourcharity.org
