    30+ years!
    I was diagnosed when I was 7 in 77. Mine didn't disappear THAT quickly but I still think it's a miracle it disappeared at all. I was told later I was give 6 months to live and within a month or two it was 6 weeks... Although mine has been a hard life I'd say, it's been a very happy one!

    I was diagnosised with an astrocytoma but now the Cleveland Clinic doctor I've just seen is guessing it was actually a GBM.

    Seeing it was a much much less time she had hers hopefully she won't have the health problems I've had.

    Congrats for your sister and your family! And prayers for continued health and clear MRIs!

    UPDATE JULY 19, 2010, New MRI results
    Ladies and gentlemen, my kid sister scores another victory in her battle with AA3, as her quarterly MRI was clear again today!! This is the 3rd clear MRI in a row. HOORAY!!

    We all must remember, technology and medical treatment improve all the time and we can beat this monster, I don't care what you have read or what you have been told. Never give up, never lose hope.

    My heart and my prayers are with all of you.

    MRI RESULTS
