Pete, I never said it did~~I said it as being related to her depression. Not just related, actually~~but the "awakening" (so-called) being simply a prolonged case of depression that went undiagnosed. (see below). I didn't address the issue of the brain tumor at all. But I wouldn't be surprised if prolonged depression could make you more susceptible to other brain abnormalities. In any case, it's very sad and is yet one more instance of a TMer (or in this case a former one) dying~~possibly unnecessarily~~long before their time. >>> >>> I think her "awakening" was little more than a major case >>> of depression~~ >>> starting during her pregnancy and continuing on >>> afterwards, >>> not to mention being in a foreign country, her dad being >>> seriously >>> ill, etc~~that went perpetually untreated.
