MONTREAL — All that Weifun Chang wants for Christmas is to live.
That, and maybe have the strength to hold her 22-month old son.
The 30-year-old woman hasn't been able to do that for the past few months because she couldn't move her left arm. She has also had difficulty walking.
Chang was diagnosed with a brain tumour in June 2008 and since then has undergone radiation and chemotherapy.
"We don't know if it's the radiation, if it's dead cells in my brain that's causing damaged blood vessels that's leading to the weakness in my left arm -- or if it's a new tumour," she said.
She made the comments in an interview last week in her suburban Montreal residence.
