Does anyone have experience with this brain cancer?

Mom (86) with grade 4 glioblastoma. My mom was diagnosed at the beginning of September and told 6 months at most. Some days she seems fine but other days I wonder if she will make it through the night. It has been a roller coaster ride so far.  So far her symptoms are short term memory loss, confusion, weakness, and severe nausea.

So sorry, we lost my 43 year old brother to glioblastoma. He had chemo and radiation but that only bought him a few months, if it is any consolation he was peaceful at the end. (hugs)

My daughter had brain cancer found in the left temporal lobe. Marijuana helped her nausea, headaches, seizures and anxiety. Get some.

Oh, Carole, how sad. I agree with Jeanne, get Hospice care on board, they can be great at explaining things.

I have no experience, but I do send you my hugs!

Is Mom on hospice? That can be a comfort and a help.
