I have to tell you I stumbled upon this website while looking for the race for hope website. I thought I was alone in the Trigeminal Schwannoma hell. Travis you are very inspiring. I have been going through treatment for two years now. Although I wasn’t a candidate for cyberknife I did have a crainiotomy and stereotactic radiation. Seeing the picture of you in the mask made my heart stop. All those days laying there were too much to remember. Thanks for being the one brave enough to put a voice behind the battle.Best of luck.
