Story

Its Glioblastoma Awareness Day! 🧠

Glioblastoma is an aggressive brain cancer that can affect anyone
at any age. 
It a terrible diagnosis for any family to receive.  I know because my super sister was diagnosed 2 ½ years ago after she had a terrible headache.  In the past 2 years she has had surgery, chemo & radiation.  She’s been a miracle! 

Unfortunately, we learned last week that her tumour has returned.  She will start a clinical trial that is super sci-fi-y (a chemo drip directly into her brain for 5 days!)  We are so incredibly lucky that brilliant
scientists and doctors are researching glioblastoma and continuing to try to find a way to help people survive more than a few months after diagnosis.  They have given us hope!

The Brain Tumour Charity is the world's leading brain tumour charity and the largest dedicated funder of research into brain tumours globally. Committed to saving and improving lives, we're moving further, faster to help every single person affected by a brain tumour.
