Following my brain surgery, 17 years ago, I learned with untethered fear, followed by joy, about neuroplasticity, the remarkable ability for a brain to reorganize its structure. After my brain tumor was removed, neural pathways were rerouted; my synapses were firing away over a different path creating a new me. In addition to changing the food and drinks I liked, I found painting; a new door was opened.
