@rened Thank you for sharing. My husband has the same type, grade 4. He had the majority of the tumor 90% removed on July 23rd. So just the beginning of the long journey. We see oncology on Monday but it sounds like he will be having 6 weeks of radiation and chemo pills just as you did. He has speech therapy, OC, and PT for now and that is going well. I'm glad to hear his MRIs are showing no tumors.

@ddiane
Thanks for sharing your story.
You’re the first one I heard about that their husband was dx with the same kind. It’s a difficult road but with the medical help today I am thinking that my husband will live another two years or so. Definitely get the targeted therapy after finishing the heavy chemo. It helps keep the quality of life pretty good.
The best of luck to him and prayers for you both. Please keep in touch this way. It’s such a rare cancer that there aren’t many of us facing this disease.
