My mother unfortunately passed away from this horrible disease many years ago when I was not yet 10 years old. Even more unfortunate is that life expectancy once one is diagnosed with glioblastoma today is not any longer than it was back then (35 years ago). Patients on average live 8-12 months. It's depressing to see this, and I hope we can make bigger strides in the years ahead.

Either way a devastating cancer, sorry you had to go through that. http://www.abta.org/brain-tumor-information/types-of-tumors/glioblastoma.html http://www.abta.org/brain-tumor-information/types-of-tumors/...
