  • E194: Becky Robbins - Gamma Knife Treatment for a Benign Meningioma

    E194: Becky Robbins - Gamma Knife Treatment for a Benign Meningioma
    Dec 15 2025

    Trigger Warning: this episode discusses diagnosis, treatment, mental health and fear of recurrence.


    Episode 194: Part of the Living With and Beyond Cancer Series (Part 64).


    Description: In this insightful episode, Naman Julka-Anderson and Jo McNamara sit down with Becky to hear about her life, treatment for a meningioma and her advice to others.


    Becky is a mum of 3: “My family is my world and I'm very blessed. I love the simple things in life, like being outside and going on country walks. I am passionate about clean eating and nutrition, although I still have lots to learn. I'm a HR Manager and love my job, I really enjoy working with people. Health wise, I was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis at the age of 3 and then a meningioma brain tumour in 2019, but I won't let that stop me!”


    CPD Reflection Points:

    1. Reflect on Becky’s experience of diagnosis, balancing personal life and treatment.
    2. Consider the positives and negatives of radiosurgery vs surgery.
    3. Consider how you could support someone like Becky through diagnosis, treatment and follow up.
    4. Read about the symptoms of a Meningioma.
