Have you heard the story of the woman whose brain tumor spoke to her?

In the 1980s, medical literature documented a case of a woman, known only as “AB,” who began experiencing something that most of us would instantly dismiss as insanity—voices in her head. But these weren’t violent, tormenting voices. They were calm. They were kind. They said:

“Please don’t be afraid. I know it must be shocking for you to hear me speaking to you like this, but this is the easiest way I could think of.”

The voice told her it had once belonged to a worker at a children’s hospital. Imagine that—a voice that introduced itself not with chaos, but with purpose.

AB sought psychiatric help, received medication, and for a while, the voices went quiet. Life seemed to return to “normal.” Until one day, on holiday, they came back. This time, more urgent, more insistent: “Return to England immediately. Go to this address. Ask for a scan.”

That address? A real hospital in London. And the voices were right.

Her psychiatrist, more out of concern for her distress than any medical evidence, agreed to a scan. And what they found silenced the room. There it was—a tumor, a meningioma pressing against her brain, exactly as the voices had said.

Surgery was performed. When she awoke, she heard them one last time: “We are pleased to have helped you. Goodbye.” Then—silence. Her health was restored.

We tell this story because it’s easy to dismiss what we don’t understand. To pathologize every whisper, every strange intuition, every warning our bodies—or our minds—try to send us. But what if we started listening differently?

This isn’t about superstition. It’s about paying attention. About respecting the strange, inconvenient ways that truth sometimes reaches us.

At Protect a Girl’s Image, we believe the body and mind are not enemies. They are not separate. They are collaborators in survival. And sometimes, in the most mysterious ways, they speak.

So we leave you with this:

If your mind warned you like this, would you listen?
