Brain tumour.

This is my first time posting and I just need to vent as I'm not sure what's going on. 

 

My nan has been rushed to hospital Friday night the 6th of march with stroke symptoms. 

She was seen by the Dr and given aspirin and sent home saying it was a t.i.a. Saturday I go to see her and she's ten times worse, stuttering, confused, disoriented good upper body strength so we knew it wasn't a stroke.

Our local hospital confirmed last night she has 2 cancerous brain tumours that are not small. 

That's all I have today I cannot speak to the Dr until around 4pm to see what the next steps are or if she's ok. 

I'm sorry to rant on and on I'm not sure where to go or who to ask.
