When my sister was diagnosed in 2011 with an anaplastic astrocytoma, I must have read every single piece of scientific article and testimony from people surviving, ane surviving well. 

I am a little early, but my sister has been doing great. It has been 10 years since both surgeries, chemo, radiation.  She is right now skiing in Park City (fully vaccinated). No neuro déficits. 
Don't loose hope. Life can be normal after such a devastating diagnosis.

 

I don't post often now. But you can look up my past posts  to read about our journey.

    Great Update 10 years later anaplastic astrocytoma

    That is wonderful!!! I am just starting my journey. I was diagnosed with a grade 3 anaplastic Astrocytoma on Aug 2 of this year. I had surgery and the surgeon was able to remove 90% of the tumor. I start radiation and Temador on Oct 3. I love to hear stories of survivors it provides so much hope!! I pray that your sister continues to stay cancer free and enjoys many many more years doing what she loves to do and celebrating life with you and yours!!
