Mass on brain 4 month old baby

I don't even know where to start but I took my daughter (4 months) to the GP as she's done this flickering eye roll ever since she was born and they thought it was linked to reflux as did we but they referred us to a paediatrician just to be sure. They did an mri and eeg which showed seizures but found out yesterday that she has a 2cm mass on her brain. I am absolutely devastated and don't know where to go from here. They haven't given an indication as to what they think it is and we are just waiting to hear from them. All I'm thinking is the worst and I can't stop crying. I've been thinking about how I'm going to kill my self when my daughter dies. I feel hopeless and that I don't have the strength to do this. She is my only child and I tried for over 3 years to have her with miscarriages in between. They thought she was missing her cavum during pregnancy so that was traumatic too. I don't know what to do, I can't believe this is happening to us.

She's absolutely gorgeous. Merry Christmas ❤️

Neurologist just rang and said great Ormond street got back to her and they said they don’t think it’s a tumour either and they think it’s just a developmental thing with her brain which is great news ❤️🥰 my heart nearly fell out of my body when I saw what no caller ID call come through. I'm so glad I could cry. ❤️

UHW linking with Great Ormond St is an amazing combination. No better than that even with private healthcare x
