Muskegon Woman Continues Her Battle With Neurofibromatosis Symptoms

April 13, 2010 - PRLog -- She survived over 15 surgeries and despite the odds never lost her ability to hear, but it seems the battle isn't over for Jessica Stone.

Jessica's battle with Neurofibromatosis is far from over.

She is out of remission and the very tumor that threatened her hearing two years ago has already grown back.

Now Jessica says she's just trying to stay positive while deciding what the next step is in fighting this condition.

There's been a big change in Jessica Stone's life since we last saw her, she's become an aunt to one year old Cooper and it's given her a new reason to stay positive, "Playing with him and watching him grow. Working on my memoirs focusing on motivational speaking and working on my art."

The last time we were with Jessica was in November of 2008 when her cochlear implant was activated and once again she could hear, despite the diagnosis from doctors who said she would be deaf.

But just a year later she began to experience new symptoms from her Neurofibromatosis or NF, "I'd get dizzy and I just thought I had too much adrenaline and I would ignore it but it would continue to escalate to where I was having panic attacks."

A diagnosis through an MRI showed that the same tumor that had been removed from her brainstem had grown back and was causing fluid to build up in her brain, "Right there I just felt like the world ended completely."
