this beast has a name...
Glioblastomas Multiforme.
Mine is a grade 4 (i.e. - very aggressive)
You may need a small instructional guide on how to pronounce this beast. I found a good pronunciation in "A Patient's Guide to Understanding Brain Tumors" a small publication produced by Merck, a
pharmaceutical company.
(glee-oh-blass-TOE-mahs mull-tee-FOR-may)
GBM for short...
30 year old man + Grade 4 Brain Tumor = Confused Cancer Patient
so what's next?
It's great that you have hope. Confusion is just a stage, but you'll get through.
