> it took me a couple of months to learn to walk and chew gum at the same time

If I may ask, I am curious, how was this experience of not being able to do this and learning to do this again? We often overlook how complex doing such two things at the same time is because we master such skills quite early in life.

It was basically a joke, but the tumor was in the cerebellum, which controls balance (amongst other, much more important, things).

I was in physical therapy for two months, and it was probably two years, before pretty much all traces of the effects were gone.

Nowadays (almost 30 years later), it's as if it never happened.

I did get a cool haircut from the whole thing. Very punk.
