Dellann Elliott Mydland, founder and president of the EndBrainCancer Initiative and 2016 GBM Hero, discusses how miracles do happen in the world of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), and people survive.

It is crucial to have hope when facing this type of brain tumor, and those who survive often have a top brain surgeon, have their tissue saved and get into clinical trials or new treatment quicker.
