Simon was diagnosed with a multifocal glioblastoma (GBM) after waking with a severe headache and a foul but inexplicable taste and smell in January. He was 52, worked for a manufacturing machinery company and lived in Stewkley, Buckinghamshire. He had been given a prognosis of just 12 months. He underwent surgery in February followed by three weeks of high dose radiotherapy and chemotherapy. He underwent further chemo, having just completed his second round of temozolomide.

Simon passed away in November 2023. We remember him as we continue our work to raise awareness of this devastating disease and to fund research to help find a cure. He will be forever in our hearts.
