    Thanks everyone everyone for watching a piece of our story.. During this I was diagnosed with a tumor. That I didn't tell Frontline. I just kept it to myself. I wanted to be all about Allen. I was diagnosed with ossifying fibroma. luckily mine was benign to this day I'm still having surgery.It's a on going battle. In a few days.. my doctor and I are will be planning another surgery in a couple months. again thank you everyone for watching our story.I did this because I want everyone to know how a wonderful Allen is and to have an memory of him.

    A very heartfelt and personal video. I, myself, was diagnosed with brain cancer and it spread throughout my spine. Because of my fast acting oncologist, I survived by doing radiation and chemotherapy at the same time (with a bone marrow transplant shortly after). I am proud and blessed to say that I am still here with my wife who I also married while in treatment after they gave me 5 days to live. My profile icon is a picture of my first day back at work.

      Ruben Navarro congratulations, you're story is great to hear and even though I don't know you that human compassion makes me warm inside to know you survived and are happy with you're wife. All the best to you and you're future.

    That’s so nice. Such a great story. I have brain cancer as well. I was diagnosed at 15 years old after vomiting on an almost daily basis, and having several other neurological symptoms. I had it initially surgically resected, then treated successfully with radiation when it recurred. I’m dealing with a third recurrence now, and I’m starting to feel the effects. Fatigue, nausea, easily getting sick, etc. this is a sad story to hear, but, I respect that man immensely, as well as his wife for helping her husband through a difficult time. Cancer is no fun for the patient, or for those close to the patient. Bless that woman.

    Linda! your awesome, I recently lost my boyfriend to terminal cancer ws well. I feel like we can relate in so many ways. Raul and i had also been together for six years this month would have made seven Years of him and I being together. Having cancer at 27 is hard. Its difficult watching somebody leave us after we have seen them grow throughout the years, hoping for a better and healthy future. You are a angel and thank you making your journey public because I've been looking everywhere for somebody who could relate to me and I found you. God bless you.

    I was struck by how that same movie, "The Fault In Our Stars," nailed it with regard to the cancer journey. Thanks to Allen and Linda for sharing their experience of deep love on that journey. I have felt the same things.

    there is no time that someone you love, be it be family or friend, needs you and want to feel your love, support, encouragement and assurance than when they are ailing and /or know they have limited time. if you find someone like that, keep them because such people are rare.

    Some ppl leave their mate the second they find out their mate is sick, happened to me so i find it odd when ppl stick togerher threw this stuff, i got very sick with a rare debilitating degeneritive progressive life long neuromuscular disease as well as having bipolar, i lost my career, my wife cheated on me,then left me about a year later. I tried to commit suicide and ended up in the ICU for a while, but survived the attempt. My view on love, life and marrige as well as other topics has been forever changed...

      My girlfriend abandoned me in a rough time too. Unfortunately women are socialized that men deserve an unfair deal in relationships with them. There is an imherent dehumanization of men in general in American society.

    I would never want to lose someone so close at such a young age... they had so many plans ahead of them and so much I bet they planned to do together.. and all of that changed in one day when the news came.

    Cancer sucks and I wish there was a cure, I wish I could make a magic potion to fix it. But I still don’t know how and I don’t have the resources to get there yet. I lost my aunt to cancer and For those families going through it I know they wished they had a magic potion too. Take care

    I know he loved her, but he was also a little selfish. She is young, a beautiful future ahead of her. He should of told her to find someone very special who loved her and be her best friend when he is not here on this earth.

      It probably depends on multiple factors, most importantly, the location of the tumor.

    okay just a discussion, of course allen knew he was going to die. was it right for them to be married? would it not hav caused a long term effect on her mind? she wouldnt be able to live a normal life from the point he dies till she dies.
    she wont be able to get married again (it wud be in her mind) not have any kids etc?
    just a discussion thoughts?

    What did this guy do to fight? Just take poison and listen to allopaths? What about diet change? Was the brain tumor benign? If so the radiation and chemo were not necessary to save his life. Only when the insurance money ran out did doctors say "get your affairs in order son."
