23-Year Survivor

I was diagnosed with a degree IV GBM in 2002. I’m blessed. Now a 23 year survivor!  I’ve experienced some setbacks with medications, but I’m still kicking!  I spoke to a congressional hearing in Washington in 2017 hosted by Senator Lindsey Graham hoping to secure more money for brain tumor research. Looking forward to 2027 and my 25th anniversary! In years past I helped raise money via Walks for life. 

Life is Good!!

Altered everything.

Recovering from three seizures this year. No tumor reoccurrence.

TAGGED WITH: glioblastoma
