After Brain Cancer Surgery Sabrina Leamon Returns to Daily Life
When, at 24-years-old, Sabrina Leamon began to experience fogginess and anxiety she knew something was wrong. After experiencing two seizures, Sabrina finally knew the root of her symptoms. In 2020, in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, Sabrina was diagnosed with a slow-growing brain cancer called a grade II diffuse glioma. She recommends that if you think something is wrong, don’t delay and see your doctor today.
After the diagnosis, Sabrina looked for a healthcare team with expertise in treating her type of cancer. She found personalized cancer care under Thomas L. Beaumont, MD, PhD, neurosurgeon at UC San Diego Health who specializes in skull base and minimally invasive cranial surgery and brain tumors.
UC San Diego Health — home to the region’s only comprehensive brain tumor program and only National Cancer Institute-designated comprehensive cancer center — has an internationally recognized team of experts in neuro-oncology, neurosurgery, radiation oncology, neuroradiology, neuropathology and neuroimaging for the comprehensive research and treatment of benign and malignant brain tumors.
