Man Who Couldn’t Walk After Brain Tumor Surgery Chasing Pickleball Dream

  • Nicholas Wade, a 27-year-old pickleball player from Idaho, had a seizure in his sleep and was hospitalized in June 2025.
  • The following day, doctors successfully completed a four-hour surgery to excise a benign brain tumor that had likely been present since birth.
  • A biopsy confirmed the tumour was a rare benign glioneuronal type, and Nicholas spent a month relearning basic skills like walking, showering, and feeding himself.
  • Nicholas stated that he showed no signs of illness prior to the seizure and mentioned feeling healthier than ever while preparing for a tournament that week.
  • Having returned to the court, Nicholas is determined to reach the top rank in pickleball while working to challenge and change the stigma surrounding brain tumours.
