A Consequence of Sequence: The aftermath of a life seized by two tumours
Idayu Maarof with Mohd Firdaus Raih
Merely not dying
is not really living - the grief and angst of coping with tumours, strokes,
seizures.
After
suffering strokes, general practitioner Dr. Idayu Maarof underwent major
surgery to remove a heart valve tumour believed to have caused the strokes.
Unfortunately, what seemed to be the end of a journey was only the beginning
of an even more arduous one. Her symptoms evolved to multiple episodes of
daily seizures. ;;To control the seizures, she was put in a medically induced
coma. A mysterious brain lesion became the prime suspect, but no one was
certain. She later underwent two surgeries to remove what appeared to be a
brain tumour. Dr. Idayu Maarof contextually concludes how a sequence of
events and decisions led to a particular consequence. ;;This is not an account
about being ill. This is story of acceptance, gratitude, and the struggle for
a life worth living.
