Powerful and moving article on her brain tumor journey from my fellow OurBrainBank board member and friend, Sundas Hashmi wapo.st/3YIamtn
My @Washingtonpost piece on the brutal aftermath of #braintumor surgery and how I’ve learned to cope: wapo.st/4dlX4XS Tara Parker-Pope @bethkassab Leila Segal John Boockvar Edjah Nduom, MD (he/him) Ashley Love Sumrall, MD, FACP, FASCO NIHBrainTumor @Tsarmstrong01 Rep.

This is so beautifully written. Thank you SundasHashmi Quality of life issues for patients and families must become more central to these conversations. Focusing money and attention only on an elusive future “cure” is a disservice to the people living with today’s realities
Pls read this lovely and touching piece by my esteemed former colleague, SundasHashmi. She is an exceptional person who deserves better wapo.st/3McoxiP
People with brain cancer often experience cognitive symptoms that affect their quality of life.

Lovely piece on Sophie Kinsella wherein she perfectly captures the challenges of living with a #braintumor and how a brilliant life can be changed irrevocably by the “hammer blow of fate” nytimes.com/2024/10/03/boo… OurBrainBank American Brain Tumor Association The Brain Tumour Charity #btsm
Not glioblastoma (happily) but glad to read about beloved Alison Stewart of NPR/WNYC’s All Of It With Alison Stewart getting great brain surgery and care from rockstars Randy D'Amico, MD and John Boockvar at Lenox Hill Neurosurgery nytimes.com/2024/10/24/nyr…
Absolutely loved Sophie Kinsella new book: What Does It Feel Like? It’s a heartfelt, poignant, devastating story - yet somehow still full of Sophie’s trademark humor. Congrats Sophie - you are incredible 👏🏽 The New York Times New York Times Books nytimes.com/interactive/20…
Sundas Hashmi felt alone in her grief when she lost her brother as a teen. These are the lessons she wishes she could share with her 15-year-old self. wsj.com/lifestyle/rela… via The Wall Street Journal
My latest piece in The Wall Street Journal is for all bereaved siblings whose grief is often invisible, unacknowledged, & buried wsj.com/lifestyle/rela… OurBrainBank shitscaredmum Anderson Cooper @stephenathome American Brain Tumor Association #BTSM chat E.

After I lost my brother to #GBM when he was only 18, I buried my #loss. It was decades later that I realized #grief is an experience to live with, not an obstacle to overcome. My latest for The Wall Street Journal wsj.com/lifestyle/rela… #siblingloss #glioblastoma
This is a beautiful piece. The sibling relationship should be the longest (and often the most significant) of our lives and yet we just don't acknowledge the absolute devastation of its loss x #SiblingLoss Sibling Support
It took years for Sundas Hashmi to tell her children about her terminal cancer diagnosis. This is how she handled it. wsj.com/health/wellnes… via The Wall Street Journal
My latest for The Wall Street Journal weekend review is about a difficult but important topic: how I talked to my kids about my terminal #cancer - and the best gift I can leave them. wsj.com/health/wellnes… OurBrainBank American Brain Tumor Association Sophie Kinsella Beth Kassab Ed Pilkington #BTSM chat @sabine_NJ
