Nicola Shaw
Nicola Shaw is a 38-year-old British teacher whose life took a dramatic turn following a trip to Antarctica when she began experiencing unusual sensations in her face. Initially dismissing the tingling in her left cheek as stress-related, her symptoms escalated into severe pain, prompting her to seek medical advice. After being diagnosed with a rare meningioma near her brainstem, she underwent a challenging ten-hour surgery followed by a difficult recovery. Despite complications and the tumor's regrowth, Nicola has channeled her experiences into advocacy, planning a 50-kilometer trek across the Sahara Desert to raise funds for brain tumor research and raise awareness about the condition.
