Ohio Air Force veteran, 32, told he had inoperable brain tumor gets a second opinion from doctor who surgically removes it
Air Force veteran Tyler Nuttle’s life was turned upside down when he was diagnosed with an ‘inoperable’ brain tumor in July 2022. At just 32 years old, Nuttle, a father to a five-year-old son, was given a grim prognosis by doctors who offered him little hope beyond chemotherapy and radiotherapy.
Determined to find a solution, Nuttle sought a second opinion after 18 months of pain and uncertainty. His perseverance paid off when doctors at UC Medical in Cincinnati were able to successfully remove the tumor, contrary to the initial belief that it was inoperable.
Having to give up his job due to the tumor, Nuttle is currently on the road to recovery at Cincinnati Rehabilitation Hospital. Despite the challenges he faced, Nuttle remains optimistic about the future. He looks forward to returning to college, getting back to work, and most importantly, being there for his son.
Nuttle’s story serves as a beacon of hope for others facing seemingly insurmountable odds. His advice to those in similar situations is simple yet powerful: “Just don’t give up. Keep looking for the answer you want to hear.”
As Nuttle continues his journey towards full recovery, his resilience and determination stand as a reminder that with perseverance and the right support, even the most daunting challenges can be overcome. The Daily Guardian salutes Tyler Nuttle for his courage and positivity in the face of adversity.
