in her fight against brain cancer
On April 13th, 2010 at age 29, Jessica was diagnosed with a tennis ball sized brain tumor. The classification is an infiltrating/diffuse astrocytoma (a type of glioma) tumor. Within several days she underwent a partially awake craniotomy, with a second emergency brain surgery to follow. Unfortunately, after the resection a new tumor began to grow. In October 2012 Jess had another tumor resection. As of Jan 2013 she has began a five year newcastle virus and dendritic cell therapy.
