My only daughter was diagnosed in 1997 ,she was 20 yrs old. Her name is Shannon and had headaches a your prior to her diagnosis we thought she had mirgraines and was told she did . The day she was given a CT scan was a Thursday and died on Friday. This now has some good news in treatment for the brain cancer 25 yrs later but we were so shocked at the loss of our daughter so quickly
I think the wife is exhibiting much anxiety and perhaps some denial. I wouldn't want to be in her position especially with 10 kids. They have a large family so chances are she is getting alot of help that she will need moving forward. Sad story.
My nephew had the same tumor. He was seen at Duke University Hospital and went thru clinical trial.They injected the Poliovirus into the tumor. Today he is heal completely given God all the praise and glory. Praying for your healing and strength for your wife and family 🙏🙏🙏
Interesting you say that. My father had polio as a young man so when he went to the hospital at 77, they were treating him for Post Polio Syndrome, but he had Glioblastoma. It was too late for any treatment by then and he died a week later
It's 2/14/24. I just read his GLIO cancer journey story. I'm so sorry to his family that his fight ended. Sadly, the Same cancer took my brother's life within 2 months. I hope that the passing years have brought you some sort of peace and comfort. R.I.P Brandon.
My brother was 35 when he was diagnosed with a glioblastoma in August of 1990. He lived 7 months, passing in March of 1991. It saddens me that they've done very little in a way of cure for this cancer. My prayers go out to you Brandon and to Carrie and your entire families.
My husband has GBM but unfortunate his type is immune to all the treatment we’ve been trying. Now we are in a palliative treatment at home. I pray for many years for you. ❤️
My brother was 26 when he was diagnosed with glioblastoma in 1990. He fought this evil cancer for 3 years. He passed away in 1993 at 29 years old. My prayers are with you both and your family. Send hugs! ❤Thanks for sharing your journey.
I am in awe of you and your wife... such positive people.. stay strong both of you ...... miracles do happen... i will keep you and your family in my prayers... i am in remission myself from bowel cancer.... stay safe.....
Praying for your whole family. Continue to Praise God as you continue on your journey. My husband was diagnosed with cancer at 48 and died at 53. I tell you this to pray that you are able to receive this gift of “time” and cherish each moment. Know that God will be right there with all of you.
I’m in same boat diagnosed 12/24/20 Grade 4 gbm 6 weeks of radiation ☢️ and chemotherapy god bless us all Mnemonic with my wife for 42 years I’m 58 and I want more time with her We have 3 kids and 4 grandchildren I’ve been robbed of so much we will pray for you guys Let’s kick this demons ass! If I can help anyway let me knows
My son (w/me in this photo) was diagnosed with glioblastoma at age 33, and went to heaven at age 36, on November 04, 2017 This date (Nov. 4th) is coincidentally the birthday of both of my deceased Portuguese grandparents (Almeida) - yet born in different years 🙏💗 I know they welcomed him with LOVE
Seriously! This woman is beautiful, loving towards her husband, and just hurting for the situation! You people are heartless and judgemental!☹️. God bless them and their family!!
Have you watched “The Little Southerner” here on TH-cam? This beautiful Christian woman and her husband daily vloged about her stage 4 glioblastoma. She has sense passed on but she lived with such vigor! She loved God so much! I go back and watch her sometimes for inspiration. Thank you for sharing your story. You are in my prayers. 🤦♀️
I don’t know why on earth, but I will know when I am in heaven. My husband passed in 2013 from glioblastoma and I prayed fervently. The Lord has taken wonderful care of me and my children. I experience his love and care daily. It’s not easy, but I am thankful.
Prayers to you and your family. My mother was diagnosed with a grade 4 Glioblastoma at the age of 39, was treated at Pittsburgh Presbyterian Hospital and lived 27 years after. They are wonderful there. Have faith and never give it! God works wonders daily!
Amazing mam super... My father was diagnosed vth grade4 giloblastoma on may 2018 now he became down again can you suggest me for anymore suggestion to overcome
hi stacy, did your mother did special treatments ? or just the surgery chemo and radio ? and did she follow some specific diet or something ? my dad was just diagnosed with gbm grade 4, and he got 100% of the mass removed, every advice would be very helpfull, thank you very much.
My fiancé’s mother was diagnosed with glioblastoma. She had a tumor the size of a man’s fist & they successfully surgically resected almost all of it. She underwent radiation & chemo but ultimately succumbed 18 months after her initial diagnosis with us by her side. I know they’ve made great strides in the last 5 years when it comes to research & finding successful treatments for glioblastoma. I pray that you’re doing well. You’re so young.🙏🏼❤️
I don’t know why this came up on my TH-cam feed, but I’m sure glad it did. I see that this was four years ago, but I’m going over to site to catch up! Thank you for sharing your story, thank you for sharing your faith. Without God, how could there be hope? You guys are amazing! ❤❤❤
I just came across your journey video and I just got diagnosed with cancer and your cancer and how are you talking about your journey bring so much to me and know that your Christian and that you’re bound thank you
Please continue to share your story 🙏 as this type of cancer is rare in young people 😪 my son was diagnosed with this horrible cancer at the age of 37 and his tumor was removed and he did all they can 😪 he was a miracle when he was born and I believe God is going to heal him now 🙏🙏🙏. God bless his wife 😇 my son has been in remission for almost a year 🙏🙏 my son had headaches for over two months and was about to have a ct when he had the grand mal seizure . Keep praying for a miracle cure for this cancer 🙏🙏🙏
Sending prayers and lots of love to you both. I lost my partner to GBM a few years ago, he was 42. The symptoms leading up to diagnosis have a few similarities, although his prognosis was bad from the beginning (inoperable, unable to tolerate chemo) It's great that you are doing so good. Keep up the fight against that fu*ker, I have a feeling you are going win that fight🙏❤
My dad has been hospitalised last Friday (14 apr 2023) they suspect glioblastoma grade 4. He had a surgery on Monday 17th April 2023). They removed as much as they could and we are waiting for biopsy. He completely lost his vision on left eye. He also sometimes talking gibberish. We are planning to complete radiation and chemotherapy. I’m praying every day for him. And I pray for you too
Hey Lina if you don’t mind me asking. How is your father today? My father got the news he’s in stage 4 just two days ago. He’s done one surgery.. I have a bad feeling his declining too fast. I’m starting to accept his fate even though it’s breaking my heart. Sending you prayers ❤️💔
My thoughts and prayers remain with your family. Can't help but be concerned d/t no update. Please let us know there are those of us who truly care for y'all.
Brandon and Carrie,.I've been keeping you in thoughts and prayers the fact that you are sharing your journey with us shows whar strength of character you have I will have a Mass said for you and I will constantly keep you Carrie and your fily in my prayers 🙏 sending 🫂
Cancer is such a destructive thing no one should judge how people feel. Everyone is different.My husband had cancer and i never could come to terms with it. I had a hard time accepting it.
My prays are with you all the way from the uk 🇬🇧 to you your family. my mum had glioblastoma and sadly she died last year, stay strong live laugh love and makes lots of memories.
Best of wishes to you! My father was diagnosed with a grade 4 GBM (non methylated) in October 2018. He recently started Optune after finishing the standard of care. I highly recommend anyone with a GBM speak to their neuro oncologist about it.
My niece was 23, she was in a little fender bender accident. Went to ER, test, more test. Oncology treatment will not cure you, they laid out the side effects. She decided to just make the most of the time she had left. Did not live for her 24th birthday .
My husband was suddenly diagnosed with Glioblastoma but it was inoperable. He did radiation and chemo but he only lived 11 weeks. God Bless You and your family.
Filip Andersson What kind of asinine ass leaves a comment like this? One viewer was trying to leave a supportive comment for a man (and his wife) who’s fighting for his life and you come along and leave the words “it’s a death sentence” on here?

Hi I don’t know if you have discovered there is a machine/cap you wear call Optune. I previously ordered for my husband and it specifically was made for Glioblastoma My prayers go up to the throne room of grace for you & your family. Shalom
Prayers to you!!! My father was diagnosed July 4th of 2011 and passed away Oct 31st 2011. He was 74 years old. Thank God treatments for this have advanced so much since then. My dad was fine on July 4th went to Sam's Club got ribs for dinner my mom said he was home sitting at the table drinking a beer when she left to go shopping and when she came back an hour later he was still sitting there and when she spoke to him she new right away something was wrong because he couldn't form any kind of sentence he was speaking just nonsense. She called 911 and he was diagnosed later that night.
Stacey my dad the same he was 74 and was fine but then fell down in garden and diagnoses same day and we lost him a few months later my mum was 68 and we lost her a month before his diagnosis which came out of the blue it's tough just wanted to say how similar our dads story's are lost him in 2020 my thoughts are with you xx
Wildfox09!! Thank you For sharing your awful experience 🙏 I know many people out there go through similar experiences Of yours weard disease's that hurting many lives God saved you from that painful diseases to help Other's
Brandon passed away in August of 2021. Glioblastoma is a grade 4 tumor--very treatment-resistant. This is one of the toughest cancers to cure---it has a 1% cure rate.
About 39 mins in you mentioned basically how you’ve been doing great, I am in the same situation! I was diagnosed with GBM following an awake craniotomy brain surgery on July 30. I promise you that your faith and the prayers from those you are close to, those you happened to meet, those you happened to just see, and those you’ve never met who pray for you and even just think positive for you will see you through! I have done the same 6 weeks of low dose chemo and radiation (9/10/18-10/18/18), and last night I took the last dose of the 5th month of 5/23 (five days on 23 days off) high dose Temodar. It’s seriously 50/50 when it comes to faith and prayer vs following the medical treatment available. My own neurosurgeon initially thought I had a grade 2 benign tumor, though the path confirmed grade 4 GBM. I have some speech problems more-so related to memory. For example, I want to say a word that starts with L but I think of all sorts of other words before the correct one comes to my mind. This really only happens if I’m overly tired or while I’m on this high dose of Temodar. I would definitely pursue any possible clinical trials! I am unfortunately not eligible for any at this time, for which I just take as a positive moment from God for telling me that I’m doing too well to take the place of someone who needs a different treatment than the standard. This journey is a change in your life but it is just a time out, I pray for you and your family! That you all make it through to be able to continue to share your story! Help others know what happens and how we go through the process. Without you sharing your story, we cannot even tell that you are cancerous and praise God for that strength!
@@breannedixon9712 Thank you! I have finished all of my treatments! I now just check in with my oncologists every couple months with an MRI and maintaining preventative seizure meds. I really appreciate your kind words!
This man was incredible..such an amazing positive attitude and outlook on his horrific diagnoses ❤ I could only hope to have such grace when faced with such a devastating disease..he was so young and a beautiful family..I could definitely see and feel his hope, love, faith and devotion to God almighty ❤ My Deepest sympathy to his wife, children, family and friends, I'm so sorry 🙏 He was most definitely an inspiration to us all.❤ xx hydie
I dont know why your feed came up on my notifications in 2023 in Ireland my irish shamrock luck sent to u ..theres a eeson fir everything as a survivor of cancer
My husband (34) was just diagnosed on 3/14 and I’m working on editing my first TH-cam video to document our journey. We are 46 days since dx & first resection. Would love to connect with you.
@@bjkail24 So sorry Carrie. My one hope is that something is found to treat this terrible and deadly form of cancer. I lost my only little brother at the age of 37 in February of 2012 from this killer and not a day goes by where my heart does not ache due to his absence. GBM robs families of joy and laughter by taking the best too soon. Sending you love, light and healing.❤❤❤
? Do y'all have a P.O. box so if we (I) want to send a card to u and ur family hope u dont think i weird for asking its just that my heart is with u and ur family..thanks 4 sharing!
Husband dx June 13 2019. Had surgery on June 11th and got pathology report as he was being discharged 2 days after surgery. Very devastating time. Sounds like he will be having 2nd surgery soon. Tumor came back before any treatments started but he did go through the 6 weeks radiation and now does chemo.
My good friend diagnosed with GBM and when neurosurgery removed much of tumour. It was sent to pathology and there seems there is a variant of this type brain tumour. She has had treatment finishing her rounds. They found that tumor wasn’t same type as what they later found it in bone. They did auto stem cell transplant. She is 6 months out and is doing much better.
This day is Feb. 109,2024 and how I come to find this is strange but I wanted to hear your story. I myseelf I suffered a cancer not on or in brain. In all seriousness i hope yòur doing well. Hoping your family is doiing weĺ but wanted to say you two seem to be perfect for each other!❤❤❤❤❤
Brandon, the first visual symptom you noticed was the lights shifting right to left and right to left. Did this visual symptom stay with you continuously, or did it stop? And did it look blurry? The feeling of disorientation and stopping at the green light plus noticing the lights shifting sounded like the start of a seizure. Forgetting things and not able to read the road signs and mental fog was a clear sign that things weren't right. I notice a lot of GBM patients that have posted up their first symptoms and signs on TH-cam have had literally the worst of the worst experiences when their symptoms onset. Lots of reports of either migraine style headaches lasting for weeks on end, throwing up, or having seizures. One young man had auditory seizures where he heard a weird sound/music before he totally spaced out. Bob Moog had issues with moving his arm and even with receiving treatment he didn't live more than 3 months. GBM is a very aggressive form of brain cancer. You were lucky to get all of the tumor resected, it's a difficult tumor to remove since it forms little tentacles that go into the brain tissue. I really hope that you have the right genes and receive the best treatment possible. Not everyone makes it. My heart goes out to you two and your family.
@Busty Blonde Beach Bunny: I had done a lot of research online on the types of symptoms and what other people have experienced through TH-cam videos, in conjunction with undergraduate studies in premed biology. I had concerns that I had a form of brain cancer with having visual disturbances, vertigo, tinnitus, and headaches. Thankfully my MRI results were normal, but I sympathize for people experiencing cancer. I do hope for more development and research in aggressive forms of brain cancer, such as GBM, to help people like Brandon live longer and be cured.
Since then I've some headaches and a couple focal seizures that involved flashing lights. Occasionally, I'll feel light-headed. I'm sorry for your losses. Thank you for your encouragement!
My GBM is completely different; it's in the motor function part of my brain, so I was losing my balance and falling to the right as the tumour is slightly in the left side. My mind has been totally functional, which is why it was so hard to believe what I have.
My sister just had surgery and begins treatment soon. Can you tell me a little bit about your brother and his experience (and his caretakers’) during this those five years? Thank you.
My husband had this. Lived 17 months. The treatment does not help and is just a money maker for health care. My husband had a better quality of life when we stopped everything
Some of these comments are so terrible if you don’t want to hear their story move on and keep your stupid mouth shut it’s just hateful and mean 😪 it until you realize this pain you have no idea what this means to people who need to hear this 😢😢🙏 I don’t even know how this got on my feed but God knows 🙏
I know !!! She was acting like she didn’t want to talk and and flipping her hair and just kept telling us how mad that made HER … not empathetic to her husband!!! 🙄🙄🙄
Guys: My horse had thrown me about 4 feet in the air, when I landed on the ground, I knew right away I had fractured something. Turns out I had dislocated my shoulder area and fractured my humorous. I can sympathize with your pain related to your shoulder. Prayers for your other medical problem.❤🙏🏻
Check out the Optune machine/cap specifically made for Glioblastoma I ordered for my husband through a referral first from his Doctor who did his surgery 3 weeks ago. And Medicare covers it.

Beautiful couple 💕 STRONG IN THE LORD
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤I don't understand why so many people have glioblastoma. These days....your not alone.
About 39 mins in you mentioned basically how you’ve been doing great, I am in the same situation! I was diagnosed with GBM following an awake craniotomy brain surgery on July 30. I promise you that your faith and the prayers from those you are close to, those you happened to meet, those you happened to just see, and those you’ve never met who pray for you and even just think positive for you will see you through! I have done the same 6 weeks of low dose chemo and radiation (9/10/18-10/18/18), and last night I took the last dose of the 5th month of 5/23 (five days on 23 days off) high dose Temodar. It’s seriously 50/50 when it comes to faith and prayer vs following the medical treatment available. My own neurosurgeon initially thought I had a grade 2 benign tumor, though the path confirmed grade 4 GBM. I have some speech problems more-so related to memory. For example, I want to say a word that starts with L but I think of all sorts of other words before the correct one comes to my mind. This really only happens if I’m overly tired or while I’m on this high dose of Temodar. I would definitely pursue any possible clinical trials! I am unfortunately not eligible for any at this time, for which I just take as a positive moment from God for telling me that I’m doing too well to take the place of someone who needs a different treatment than the standard. This journey is a change in your life but it is just a time out, I pray for you and your family! That you all make it through to be able to continue to share your story! Help others know what happens and how we go through the process. Without you sharing your story, we cannot even tell that you are cancerous and praise God for that strength!
Good luck with everything. Hope you’re doing well
@@breannedixon9712 Thank you! I have finished all of my treatments! I now just check in with my oncologists every couple months with an MRI and maintaining preventative seizure meds. I really appreciate your kind words!
Sending many Prayers to you and your family.
I’m sorry I didn’t read the year. Carrie I’m praying for you and your family. 🙏🙏🙏
This man was incredible..such an amazing positive attitude and outlook on his horrific diagnoses ❤ I could only hope to have such grace when faced with such a devastating disease..he was so young and a beautiful family..I could definitely see and feel his hope, love, faith and devotion to God almighty ❤ My Deepest sympathy to his wife, children, family and friends, I'm so sorry 🙏 He was most definitely an inspiration to us all.❤ xx hydie
Prayers for you and your family. God bless you all

I dont know why your feed came up on my notifications in 2023 in Ireland my irish shamrock luck sent to u ..theres a eeson fir everything as a survivor of cancer
The original CT was with contrast because one without would be useless. ☝️❤️ they would need the most detailed scan possible before surgery.
god bless you hope you get better to be with your family
He passed in '21
Stay strong❤️
My husband (34) was just diagnosed on 3/14 and I’m working on editing my first TH-cam video to document our journey. We are 46 days since dx & first resection. Would love to connect with you.
April, how is your husband doing?
Stay strong, stay blessed and listen to your doctors. You can and will beat this cancer! God is on your side.💗🙏🏼💗
Jenny, this is Carrie. Brandon passed away Aug 30,2021. May he Rest In Peace.
@@bjkail24 So sorry for your loss.
@@bjkail24 So sorry Carrie. My one hope is that something is found to treat this terrible and deadly form of cancer. I lost my only little brother at the age of 37 in February of 2012 from this killer and not a day goes by where my heart does not ache due to his absence. GBM robs families of joy and laughter by taking the best too soon. Sending you love, light and healing.❤❤❤
R.I.P. in the arms of the Lord, 🙏.
God's richest blessings.
Prayer♥️🙏
My son was 32 and passed with this also 😢
? Do y'all have a P.O. box so if we (I) want to send a card to u and ur family hope u dont think i weird for asking its just that my heart is with u and ur family..thanks 4 sharing!
THERE ARE NEW TREATMENTS EVERY DAY!! KEEP THE HOPE :-)
Husband dx June 13 2019. Had surgery on June 11th and got pathology report as he was being discharged 2 days after surgery. Very devastating time. Sounds like he will be having 2nd surgery soon. Tumor came back before any treatments started but he did go through the 6 weeks radiation and now does chemo.
We hope and pray that all is going well!
My good friend diagnosed with GBM and when neurosurgery removed much of tumour. It was sent to pathology and there seems there is a variant of this type brain tumour. She has had treatment finishing her rounds. They found that tumor wasn’t same type as what they later found it in bone. They did auto stem cell transplant. She is 6 months out and is doing much better.
I feel like you are going to beat this …stay strong , don’t give up ! It makes a difference
This day is Feb. 109,2024 and how I come to find this is strange but I wanted to hear your story. I myseelf I suffered a cancer not on or in brain.
In all seriousness i hope yòur doing well. Hoping your family is doiing weĺ but wanted to say you two seem to be perfect for each other!❤❤❤❤❤
Brandon, the first visual symptom you noticed was the lights shifting right to left and right to left. Did this visual symptom stay with you continuously, or did it stop? And did it look blurry? The feeling of disorientation and stopping at the green light plus noticing the lights shifting sounded like the start of a seizure. Forgetting things and not able to read the road signs and mental fog was a clear sign that things weren't right.
I notice a lot of GBM patients that have posted up their first symptoms and signs on TH-cam have had literally the worst of the worst experiences when their symptoms onset. Lots of reports of either migraine style headaches lasting for weeks on end, throwing up, or having seizures. One young man had auditory seizures where he heard a weird sound/music before he totally spaced out. Bob Moog had issues with moving his arm and even with receiving treatment he didn't live more than 3 months.
GBM is a very aggressive form of brain cancer. You were lucky to get all of the tumor resected, it's a difficult tumor to remove since it forms little tentacles that go into the brain tissue. I really hope that you have the right genes and receive the best treatment possible. Not everyone makes it. My heart goes out to you two and your family.
@Busty Blonde Beach Bunny: I had done a lot of research online on the types of symptoms and what other people have experienced through TH-cam videos, in conjunction with undergraduate studies in premed biology. I had concerns that I had a form of brain cancer with having visual disturbances, vertigo, tinnitus, and headaches. Thankfully my MRI results were normal, but I sympathize for people experiencing cancer. I do hope for more development and research in aggressive forms of brain cancer, such as GBM, to help people like Brandon live longer and be cured.
I just had the symptoms for that night. After the seizure, I did not experience that again...
Since then I've some headaches and a couple focal seizures that involved flashing lights. Occasionally, I'll feel light-headed. I'm sorry for your losses. Thank you for your encouragement!
@@bjkail24 Really glad to hear from you! I hope that you're doing okay. :)
me in lol you are on our
My GBM is completely different; it's in the motor function part of my brain, so I was losing my balance and falling to the right as the tumour is slightly in the left side. My mind has been totally functional, which is why it was so hard to believe what I have.
My sister alena is going through this
She can't move
Latrobe mot far from us in portage,pa my husband was operated on for glioblastoma 9,11,23,using optine can no longer walk.

my brother lived 5 yrs after diagnoses
My sister just had surgery and begins treatment soon. Can you tell me a little bit about your brother and his experience (and his caretakers’) during this those five years? Thank you.
Hard heart prayers
After seizure the patient is in a postictial state where is sleep for a not insignificant time. May look like awake..but not.
Wow...wouldn't get on Carrie's badside...she is tough
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Nevermind,,,, didnt know of the other video updates!
My husband had this. Lived 17 months. The treatment does not help and is just a money maker for health care. My husband had a better quality of life when we stopped everything
Some of these comments are so terrible if you don’t want to hear their story move on and keep your stupid mouth shut it’s just hateful and mean 😪 it until you realize this pain you have no idea what this means to people who need to hear this 😢😢🙏 I don’t even know how this got on my feed but God knows 🙏
He lived for about two years.
You are not a statistic…my doctor to me not to stop fighting …. And I refuse to … I tell the disease to screw off on a daily basis …you can win !
10 kids are you crazy
That must have been frightening seeing your partner like this first time...
Hope this works out for you & your family. But 10 kids!
How are u now?
He's gone
CANT HEAR YOU
The hair flipping too!!! Ugh
There is no resecting 100% of this type of tumor!!
Is Brandon still alive?
apparently he passed away a year ago
@@Sabouma28 how do you know
@@PrettiPetty24 read a few comments on a newer vid
If you google his name you can read his obituary. He was a really fine young man.
CAN'T HEAR HER
I know !!! She was acting like she didn’t want to talk and and flipping her hair and just kept telling us how mad that made HER … not empathetic to her husband!!! 🙄🙄🙄
Guys: My horse had thrown me about 4 feet in the air, when I landed on the ground, I knew right away I had fractured something. Turns out I had dislocated my shoulder area and fractured my humorous. I can sympathize with your pain related to your shoulder.
Prayers for your other medical problem.❤🙏🏻
Iooiiiii
10 kids...
You kind of look like you were made to be together you can till the love you have made to be together for ever😘🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧💏 they love so much. Xx
How to save my sister. Plz help me she is suffering from low grade glioma she is about 20 year old. What we should do please suggest
Check out the Optune machine/cap specifically made for Glioblastoma I ordered for my husband through a referral first from his Doctor who did his surgery 3 weeks ago. And Medicare covers it.
What is the prune machine
I'm sorry for not seeing your question sooner. How is your sister doing?
