ReWired: A Story of Recovery from Spinal Cord Tumor Surgery

Rate this book
Adults with spinal cord tumors are exceedingly rare, and written accounts of what it's like to survive tumor-removal surgery are even more rare. Through this book, Dawn hopes to give those who are on a similar journey the reassurance that they are not alone. She not only offers a glimpse into what their post-surgical experience might be like, she also offers insights on how they might accept their body's new language with curiosity, humor, gratitude and grace.

So helpful

This little book was a real eye opener and help. I have a spinal cord tumour between vertebrae C3 C4. I am waiting to see the neurosurgeons in London. I am of course obsessed with all the symptoms and what the outcome will be. The writer was only 51 and I am 76. Maybe they wouldn't even risk the operation, who knows.

This book has stopped me feeling so isolated and prepared me for what I might face if they do operate - and if I survive.

It is apparently a rare thing for adults to have cervical spine tumours. Oh great, bloomin' typical of me!!!
