In September 1995, my mother was diagnosed with glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) and passed a mere 6 weeks later. This loss still reverberates through my family, and we miss her every day of our lives.  I turned 51 this year, the same young age as my mom when she was taken from us.  For this milestone and in loving tribute to her life and legacy, I am uniting with others to make a difference in the fight against brain tumors. Many advancements in the treatment of brain cancer have been made over the past 27 years, but with your help, even more can be done so that others affected by this diagnosis have hope and optimism for a brighter future!  

I need your help in this fight. National Brain Tumor Society will not rest until a cure exists - but more needs to be done. Please join in my effort!
