    • About Me

      Hi, I am 40 years old and I would love to quit smoking. Cost to much to smoke. I am a survivor of Glioblastoma (brain cancer), the doctor told me that I had 47 weeks to live. So, I found another doctor and here I am now, happy. That was of all the times but, 9-9-1999 (weird date). There is a fellow in Michigan who is about 6 months older than me. We are suppose to be the only 2 people that had survived for this length of time. We use the right side of brain where 99.9% of people use the left side. And the tumors are on the left side. And, yes we are somewhat odd (using the other side of our head to do things).

      HI, I HAVE HAD BRAIN CANCER SINCE 9-9-1999, THE FIRST DOCTOR SAID I HAD 47 WEEKS TO LIVE. I TOLD HIM () AND FOUND OTHER DOCTOR. SO, HERE I AM LIVING, TAKE LOTS OF MEDICINE, FEELING GOOD, AND AT A YOUNG AGE I FOUND WHAT LIFE WAS REALLY LIKE BEING ON AN AMBULANCE AND RIDING TO A HOSPITAL. WOW WEE WAS I EVER SCARED.....

      Treatments

      Chemotherapy Not Working
      NOT FUN AT ALL. BUT, NOT THE WORST THING I EVER HAD TO DO IN LIFE. CONSTIPATION WAS A PROBLEM TO DEAL WITH TAKING THAT MEDICINE.
      Radiotherapy Not Working
      ALREADY HAD MY HEAD SHAVED FOR SURGERY SO, I WAS USED TO NOT HAVING HAIR. BUT, IT STILL GROWED AND YET SOME ALWAYS FELL OUT.
      Surgery Not Working
      FUN, FUN. COULDN'T GET THE WORDS OUT, COULDN'T WRITE. WHICH MADE ME SO MAD BUT, AS THE SWELLING WENT DOWN I COULD TALK AND CRIED A LOT, BECAUSE OF THE NERVES THAT WERE PLAYED WITH. NOW, I AM A HAPPY 39 YEAR OLD BOY. IN 1999 THE FIRST DOC SAID I HAD 47 WEEKS TO LIVE. HA HA, DON'T SEE HIM ANYMORE.
      Temodar Not Working
      MEDICINE FOR CANCER, YOU TAKE ANOTHER PILL WITH THIS FOR CONSTIPATION AND UPSET BELLY. BUT, AFTER THE FIRST TIME- THEY GET MUCH EASIER TO DEAL WITH. I WAS ON IT FOR 2 YEARS. ALL THINGS I DONE HELPED ME TO LIVE, FROM SURGERY, CHEMO, RADIO. IT ALL HELPED.
