    I'm encouraged by this video!
    I have recently been diagnosed with glioblastoma.
    I live in West Virginia.
    The treatments that I'm receiving now are what seems to be standard protocol.
    With not much hope of survival.
    I am a born again Christian and my hope is in my Lord Jesus 🙏.
    To be honest right now I am struggling 😪
    It cheeres my heart to hear about this treatment.

    How I wish we can reach you to treat my brother fighting glio. But sadly we don't have money. All we do is hoping for a miracle.😢

    My mom had a golf ball size tumor removed almost a month ago and is supposed to start radiation soon. I’m worried that they are taking too long to start her treatment and that it will be back before she starts. How do we go about getting treatment like this for her at Houston Methodist? Why aren’t more neuro oncologists doing this? Is this considered a trial and will insurance help? Please help me to help my mom. Her surgeon successfully removed her tumor that was in her right frontal lobe. She’s 60, Will she qualify. PLEASE HELP

      His scans show he’s cancer free but from what I understand Glioblastoma cells will still be in the tissue and there’s a chance it could come back, have to stay on top of it and get regular mris for life I’m sure. Beats being dead though

      @@Ms.Delphine1204 I hear you, a week ago I had gamma tiles put in and in that spot so far so good the other day I found out I have a new growth somewhere else because I threw up and got the mri to check shunt placement and all because I had shunt put in . I sure hope Avastin makes growth go away this is my 4th growth now over a year later
