My 31 year old nephew was diagnosed with incurable aggressive grade 4 GBM in December. His symptoms were stroke like until the scan revealed the worst. They went in and removed 90% of the tumour and has some radiotherapy although during the op he took a stoke which left him without the use of his right arm and leg and also aphasia. It is so hard to watch someone so young go through this. We are currently awaiting the next scan so find out the outcome of treatment but are desperately looking for other treatments if this hasn’t been successful
