Personally, I would prefer to flesh out the missing sections of the articles before making any major announcements on the site, perhaps even attempting to reach out to physicians, pharmacists, and other professionals...

The forum should also find its pulse again if people contribute advice, critiques, or new content...

In about two days, I will be traveling to San Francisco to finally reunite with my mother. I intend to assess her current strength and her willingness to discuss her experiences. She is quite helpful via telephone, offering advice to anyone who calls, though she remains "technologically illiterate" since she doesn't use a computer. I will attempt to ask her to write down the essential details of her case when she has a moment, and then I shall transcribe them on her behalf...

Now, I am returning to the website to continue my research; kudos once again to you all... 😍

Angela Wright, I am so incredibly sorry for your loss. Just know we’re all thinking of you.🙂

abuxl, do you happen to know anything about leg cramping or twitching related to GBM? My mom is struggling with it right now, and I'm honestly at a loss for how to help her. I won't be able to check with her doctor until Friday. Is it worth noting that we recently dropped her dexamethasone dose from 8mg down to 4mg?

My deepest condolences to you, Jane... You’ve carried so much on your shoulders already. Just try to find the strength to get through today. The road ahead won't be easy, either. I meant what I said before, and I still stand by it—as soon as things settle down and you've had a moment to breathe, we’ll meet up. I want to be there to help you navigate what's coming next. I don't want to burden you with heavy words right now, but please know that everything you shared with her stays with you. The joy, the quiet moments, even the difficult ones... it all becomes part of who you are. No one can ever take away those memories that belong solely to the two of you. Eventually, you'll look back and find the pieces you need to move forward. We'll talk more soon. Sending you strength... you're an incredible woman, and you deserve so much peace. I'm right here with you, Jane.

You are such a fighter and a truly wonderful person. Your mother had an angel right by her side.
I’ve read through everything you wrote, and honestly, your posts—along with everyone else on this forum—have given me so much strength and clarity.
We keep moving forward... on the path of hope.
And I believe, I know, that "on the other side," there is a world where love is just the way things are, and happiness isn't fleeting, but eternal. Your mother left her temple like a queen, in all her glory.
My deepest condolences.

Please accept my deepest, most sincere condolences. Take care of yourself and look after your dad. I hope God keeps you all in His care. You’ve been such a pillar of strength for the rest of us while dealing with your own grief and heartache, and I know God sees everything you've endured.

Peace, quiet, and some actual soul-deep tranquility... honestly, isn't that what we're all just wishing for? Like a moment of pure stillness to soothe everything.

My heart truly goes out to everyone.

Jane

Dear Jane Doe,
Please accept my deepest condolences.
I know I can't take away the pain or ease this loss, but watching how hard you fought to save her and extend her life has been an inspiration to me while I fight for my own loved one.
Don't let this loss break you. Take that same passion and energy you used to care for her and channel it into living the life you have ahead of you.
May God watch over you and your dad.

Trump, I am so incredibly sorry for your loss. 😢

I’ve been checking in on this thread from time to time, and I have to say, I'm really moved by how you handled your mom's illness. I honestly think of you both every time I walk past your apartment building (I know from other threads we live in the same neighborhood).

We all face losing someone we love eventually, and when that day comes, I just hope I can be even half as strong as you were.

Hang in there. 🙂

Deepest condolences. Your mom lives on through you, and the strength you both shared is exactly what the rest of us draw from when we're fighting our own battles.

Mila, please accept my deepest condolences. May she rest in eternal peace. I find myself at a loss for words, as I have walked this exact path myself...
But if there is any solace to be found, let it be this: be grateful for the bond you shared—for the role she played in your life and yours in hers—and for the way she taught you to cherish what truly matters. It really is true. Reading your posts has been moving; seeing how you navigated that terrible illness was profound. You essentially stepped into her shoes to care for her, and we have all learned something from your strength. Truly, you deserve immense respect. You demonstrated, in the most fundamental sense, what it means to be a daughter. It is heartening to know that people as brave, patient, and resilient as you actually exist. I hope one day to have a daughter just like you. Please, take care of yourself now. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

I am so incredibly sorry to hear that..

I’ve never really posted anything in this thread before, but I’ve been lurking for a long time, and seeing how much you help people—you actually helped me once upon a time, too..

Stay strong.. 😘
