I had a Craniopharyngioma which is a rare non-cancerous brain tumor. It happened in 2020 when I began to notice symptoms. Not eating, not growing, drinking a lot of water, vomiting, extreme headaches the biggest of them all, and loss of vision.
It began with headaches and I remember playing football/soccer it was halfway through the season and my Dad was a big person into soccer as he’s from Romania and that's like the most popular sport there and whenever I told him about the headaches, he would tell me to get back on the pitch.
While was happening, I wasn't eating, like I could not. I remember I could not eat breakfast and all I could eat was half a granola bar, throwing the other half away. I didn't know what to do. The next thing I knew was that I was 30 kilograms at 11 years old, a couple of kilograms lighter than my sisters who were about 8 years old.
It didn't stop, I didn't grow as I was 140 cm/4'6 at 11 years old. A kid in school made fun of me calling me
