And yet another celeb with a brain tumor...
« on: June 05, 2012, 04:07:16 pm »
Just saw in the news that Sheryl Crow has mengingioma...here's one article: http://todayentertainment.today.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2012/06/05/12072081-sheryl-crow-reveals-she-has-benign-brain-tumor?lite

She's had breast cancer before, so I hope this is something she can lick!!

I know -- I actually just posted about benign brain tumors and breast cancer since my mom had an AN and then 20 years later breast cancer. I hope they aren't related. But apparently there is a connection between meningiomas and breast cancer? Possibly some sort of hormonal connection. I don't think AN's have a connection though.

Read a headline about this before I read the entire article and thought she might have an AN - but meningioma it is.

I don't actually "make" trouble..just kind of attract it, fine tune it, and apply it in new and exciting ways
