After a summer medical hiatus, 20-year old UNCC student, Matt Tifft, is set to get back behind the wheel of a racecar again.
Back in late June, a slow-growing brain tumor was found inside Tifft’s head while he was undergoing treatment for a disc issue in his back. The tumor, benign low-grade glioma, required treatment, and on July 1, Tifft underwent surgery for the removal of the tumor.
The operation was considered a success as doctors were able to remove as much of the tumor as they possibly could.
