Support group a safe harbor for those living with brain tumors

Douglas Armstrong was in the checkout line at a local pet store when he suddenly got a chill and goosebumps. The Tipp City resident knew something wasn’t right, but outwardly, his fellow customers likely had no idea anything serious was even happening. Little did he know that he soon would be diagnosed with a brain tumor.

Armstrong sought treatment at Kettering Health Network's Neuroscience Institute, where he was encouraged to join the Southwest Ohio Brain Tumor Support Group and share his experience with fellow patients.
