Stephen began to realize something wasn't right when noticed parts of his memory was missing. He would go for a walk with his girlfriend during the day and then realize he couldn't recall the last ten minutes - anything. He put it down to stress. But when it continued and became more frequent, added with severe headaches, he went to the doctor. After a brain scan, his doctor called him, "Stephen, you have a brain tumor."... This is the reality that is facing a friend of mine.
Stephen and I went to college together and he was always such a vibrant and fun person to be around. As we say in Ireland he was a 'character'. Always well dressed, always talking cigars, movies, and fashion.
A few years after leaving college Stephen was struck with tragedy when his mother passed away. Soon after this, he was diagnosed with having a brain tumor.
