Things I Fear: Twenty-Second

#22: BRAIN TUMORS

As I've mentioned, I suffer from regular headaches.  For a time, they grew so harsh and constant that I feared they were just an early warning.

My greatest asset, in my eyes, is my intelligence.  More than anything else, I fear losing it.  And so I fear brain cancer, or even just brain tumors.  Cancer of the brain could kill me or leave me a vegetable.  But even tumors could require surgery - which, aside from being another of my fears, could go wrong.

To date, I've had none of the other symptoms, but the paranoia remains.
