I have more good news. My dad has inoperable, untreatable brain cancer. He's part of a clinical trial for a new cancer drug. His initial prognosis was 1 year left. That was 6 years ago. This drug is going to revolutionize cancer treatment. Science is amazing

I’m 99% sure I know exactly what trial you’re talking about because it started just months after my grandpa died of a very very aggressive brain cancer. I’m so happy for people who it’s helped but god I wish they made literally just 6 months sooner

I'm so very sorry for your loss. I pray this new treatment comes soon so people won't have to grieve like that anymore
