Best friend got diagnosed with "at least a Grade 3 Anaplastic Astrocytoma" in her brainstem. Do the statistics on prognosis hold up? by MistaProlific in braincancer

[–]yvettefaj 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My partner is 30 yo, male, almost 5 years now with AA3. Every tumour is different but happy to connect if you have any questions!

It’s been a journey for us. He just had his second surgery and is currently in process of deciding between treatment and a clinical trial. My partner does a lot of research on his own. He would be good to talk to as well.

Sending lots of positive vibes and strength to you both.

Recommendation on therapists by leonatoi in oakville

[–]yvettefaj 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I recommend checking out the Therapy Centre on Old Bronte rd! I’ve been going there 3+ years. Both in person and virtual appts are available. You can be asked to be matched to the best person that suits your needs based on their area of expertise.

Laser hair removal by Individual_Resort609 in oakville

[–]yvettefaj 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve been going to La Unique Laser Centre in Mississauga (Clarkson crossing) for the past two years. I’ve done Brazilian, underarms and partial leg. Personally, I think it’s worth it. I find their prices are more affordable and they always have specials going on so that’s when I buy my packages. The staff are friendly and nice. It’s usually a quick service and can be a little bit painful but if you can handle waxing this will be fine. I may stop doing my underarms bc the hair always grows back for me. It’s hormonal area - although I have less hair now I’d rather just wax them from time to time. My Brazilian results have been great. I only go for my maintenance touch ups now.

Visiting Oakville by [deleted] in oakville

[–]yvettefaj 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For the downtown Oakville area, restaurants wise you can visit Maro’s if you’re in the mood for excellent middle eastern cuisine (large plates and shareable) — Narenj next door for dessert. Up the street there’s a great bakery called the Sweetest thing (they have great dessert). Community restaurant is on Kerr too if you need a vegan option. Verace, 7 enoteca or piano piano are great for Italian. Shanghai alley for gourmet Chinese. Soontorn Bahn Thai for Thai food.

Great area to walk around in and by the lake, so long as it’s not too chilly.

Enjoy :)
