你可能聽過名模瑪麗莎 (Marissa Luck),但你可能不知道她在成名前,曾經歷過腦瘤的折磨。

Many of you Chivers know Marissa Luck, the bubbly Chivette with those amazing eyes. Life is good for Marissa right now but only couple years ago, at the much-too-young age of 19, she got news that she had brain cancer.</p><br /><br />
<p>"I knew something was wrong. I couldn't control my mood at all, which is not like me. I used to joke, 'Maybe I have a brain tumor' - turns out I did."
 
才19歲的她被診斷出腦部有2顆腫瘤,一顆為良性,一顆則為惡性。瑪麗莎表示,她早覺得怪怪的,因為自己完全無法控制住脾氣,她常開玩笑說自己一定有腦瘤,結果沒想到居然是真的!

 

兩顆腫瘤緊緊相連,而且彼此排斥,好像良性腫瘤在和惡性腫瘤在對抗一樣,醫生也說從沒見過這樣的情況。

"I actually had two tumors - one was benign and one was cancerous. They were directly next to each other and the two tumors didn't get along, if that makes sense. The benign one was actually fighting the cancerous tumor. At MD Anderson they had never seen anything like it. The friction between my two tumors was causing seizures, lots of them. I was having 5-10 seizures a day."</p><br /><br />
<p>After Marissa's diagnoses, surgery was scheduled quickly, a surgery that presented a myriad of unique risks.
 
由於兩顆腫瘤的相斥,瑪麗莎一天會發生5到10次癲癇。在診斷出問題所在後,瑪麗莎所面對的,是風險極高且充滿未知性的腦部手術。

瑪麗莎表示,有些人做完腦部手術後會癱瘓,但自己的狀況是,由於腫瘤距離儲存記憶的區塊非常接近,她很有可能在術後喪失記憶。她承認這很瘋狂,因為自己可能一覺醒來後誰也不認得。

"The surgery was risky. It was close to the part of my brain that houses my memories. Some people go into surgery knowing they could wake up paralyzed. Mine was different, I knew there was a good chance I could wake up with no memory at all - not knowing anybody or anything. Honestly, that was scary."</p><br /><br />
<p>After her surgery, Marissa's rehab was long and painful, both physically and cognitively. Everyday I was taking memory tests to regain my memory. It returned slowly but surely.

 

手術後,瑪麗莎的復健過程非常辛苦與漫長,除了生理上的疼痛外,她每天還必須接受記憶測驗,以確保自己的記憶力能慢慢復原。

但手術後三周的瑪麗莎早已容光煥發。

瑪麗莎表示,是朋友們陪她一起度過了難關。

"I had some good friends to get me through."

 

她之後在喜劇電影《 烏龍巡警2》(Super Troopers) 中演出。

她說腦癌改變了她的想法,自己很慶幸能走過這一遭,現在她想做什麼,就會馬上去做。

雖然自己並非無所不懼,但她相信對現在的自己來說,真的沒什麼值得害怕。

她同時認為能活在世上,就是最開心的事。

被問到腫瘤是否會再度出現,瑪麗莎表示,機率比想像中大。

其實現在瑪麗莎的腦裡還有一個正在追蹤的瘤。雖然醫生認為它應該不是癌細胞,但那裡理論上不應該出現東西。

但她表示,就算將來它變成惡性腫瘤,自己也會準備好和它搏鬥。

"Having brain cancer changed my perspective on every facet of life. My tumors were a blessing. I try to do something that I always wanted to do everyday. I'm not completely fearless but I'm pretty close now. I'm lucky to be alive. What's not to be happy about?"</p><br /><br />
<p>I asked Marissa what the odds of the tumor returning is?</p><br /><br />
<p>"Higher than I'd like. Even now, there's a spot in the front right part of my brain that they're keeping an eye on. The doctors don't think it's cancer but they know it's not supposed to be there. But I have to tell you that spot doesn't scare me even if it turned out to be cancerous. Because I know I could beat the hell out of it." </p><br /><br />
