Following a night of heavy drinking in 2019, Danielle Freeman, 23, suffered her first grand mal seizure while on shift at McDonalds - later she received a letter and it said that there was a benign mass on her right temporal lobe.
Danielle, now a personal trainer and nursery worker living in Portree on the Isle of Skye, was taken to hospital where she was referred for an MRI scan, which took five months to arrive.
When she received the letter containing the results from her MRI scan at the start of 2020, Danielle quickly found out that alcohol and partying were not the source of her seizures – it was actually a pea-sized brain tumour that could have been there for up to seven years.‘I got a letter and it said that there was a benign mass on my right temporal lobe,’ she recalled.‘But knowing there was something in my brain that shouldn’t be there was horrible.
Initially, Danielle turned down surgery to have the tumour removed and managed her symptoms with daily anti-seizure medication. She continued to follow a healthy lifestyle and cut out alcohol completely. And thanks to her healthy lifestyle, Danielle was discharged after three days after bouncing back so quickly.
