The hangover suspicion of Houston's mom was actually an aggressive brain tumor
Christina Smith woke up with a headache after celebrating her niece's birthday the night before, but never suspected that it could be a brain tumor.
(Fox 26 Houston)A Houston mother who went to bed with a suspected hangover and woke up paralyzed in the hospital returns to nursing school after undergoing major brain surgery to remove an aggressive tumor. Christina Smith, who woke up with a headache after celebrating her niece's birthday the night before, had no other symptoms, Fox 26 Houston reported.
"I had the biggest headache all day, and when I finally went to sleep, I had a seizure and did not even know it," the 23-year-old told the news.
Smith's husband, Willie, witnessed the seizure and was taken to the Bayshore Medical Center, where doctors discovered an aggressive tumor wrapped around an important blood vessel in his brain.
"There was no way to remove that tumor without removing part of that vein," said Dr. John Tynes, chief medical officer at Bayshore Medical Center, He said at the news outlet. "When the vein is removed in the brain, as you can imagine, there are risks associated with that, risks such as stroke, permanent brain damage, paralysis, so it was a very difficult and very brave decision that the time of care in Bayshore and Christina and Willie did, to go ahead and have surgery.

When Smith woke up, he was completely paralyzed on his right side. He began rehabilitation therapies at the hospital and began to recover faster than expected.
"He was expected to receive hospital rehabilitation and the next thing you know is that I started to recover much faster than normal, so I did not need much rehabilitation," Smith told the news outlet, adding that he has since returned to nursing school. .
