Episode 9 - What's it like to get diagnosed as a child?

By The Brain Tumour Charity

In this episode we hear from Rosie who was diagnosed with a brain tumour when she was just 8 years old.  She shares what it was like to be a child going through treatment, how it affected her friendships, going to school and the long term impacts both mentally and physically of having a brain tumour at such a young age.
