I was diagnosed with Brain GBM in 2009 which is the most dangerous brain tumor and average life expectancy is 6 months but I am surviving with this tumor for the last 5 years due to my confidence and prayers of my family. I am sharing this to make people believe that by self determination, you can even fight the most dangerous and non treatable tumor like GMB. I have undergone 3 brain surgeries, normal and cyber knife radiations, chemotherapy of Temodar and currently on Avastin chemotherapy with combination with Campto. I am surviving in a third world country in Pakistan so every one has reason to believe that they can fight and defeat cancer and never lose hope.
