In this episode of Invisible Me, Denise Lewis shares her journey with brain surgery.

After experiencing subtle symptoms like headaches and vivid dreams, Denise went on to develop auras and fainting spells. After passing out while driving, she was finally diagnosed with epilepsy, while a routine scan revealed a brain tumour, leading to surgery and the road to recovery.

Denise chats with Pat about the physical and emotional challenges she faced. She also touches on the impact her condition had on her family and the importance of communication and support. Having also had a recent diagnosis of fibromyalgia, Denise discusses her path to acceptance and learning to live with the impact of her condition.
