I am still doing fine 8/25/2012. I am now 44 months out from diagnoses 12/15/2008. Had surgery in Toledo Ohio on 1/13/2009 (debulked a 7.5 cm tumor)then gliodel wafers with 30 radiation treatments and temadar now for about 43 months.(5days on 3 weeks off) Doctors all say I am doing great. Last MRI was June of 2012 and still NO signs of regrowth!
Just tire easily, at least 1 or 2 naps a day is a must.I still list myself at about 90%

I am so glad to see many of us still doing good after 3 years from diagnoses and surgery!

Write or call if you have questions. rriebesel@roadrunner.com
