A member asked:

Might having brain cancer make someone change their feelings toward their loved ones?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Possibly: Some tumors can cause an abnormal emotional state, poor memory or judgment problems. Not all tumors do this but some tumors can totally change a person's personality.
