Pat ’s Story

Site created on May 9, 2021

On May 1, 2021, an MRI revealed a large mass in the left temporal lobe of Pat’s brain. Pat underwent surgery to remove the tumor on May 10, 2021. The neurosurgeon was able to remove 95% of the tumor, and Pat’s recovery from surgery has been remarkable. Pathology has confirmed the tumor is a grade 4 glioblastoma, an aggressive and fast growing brain cancer. Pat will soon begin radiation and chemotherapy to attack this cancer.
