When my Dad had to have a benign tumor removed, he knew there was a chance of his face drooping. When they were almost done, it happened. Not only did his face droop, but his eye would not shut and has had many surgeries to help with that. He lost all hearing in the ear next to the tumor and his stability was taken away. Thankful for it being benign, but he had no idea how many changes were to happen after that surgery. He is 76 and retired about 6-7 years ago but still works. He knows stopping and sitting will slow him down even more. He was diagnosed with Parkinson’s in January 2026, so more changes are happening.
