My Dad has this now. To start with his personality changed - he's usually the life & soul of everything but he was quiet & forgetful. On holiday in Turkey he was diagnosed with "a" tumour. Insurance were not going to help us so I flew out  to help mum bring him home & we rocked up at an A&E in Dublin @4am. There after biopsy we were told it was a glioblastoma & had crossed to the left side of brain. This made it inoperable. After 8days we got a bed in local hospital. Radiation specialist had a good chat with us & advised us to do nothing. More than anything Dad is bored out of his mind. This is week 3 of the 6 weeks we were told he had, roughly. He was a professional footballer & now at 73, earlier this year was refereeing 4 matches a week. He's got diarhoea now which exhausts him & it's made him quite the grouch. We are waiting for that to clear up then he'll come home while he can (hospital providing bed & other stuff). My concern is that if he falls, as he is pure muscle, mum & I will not be able to get him up. Has anyone else's relative had diarhoea as part of a glioblastoma?

Going by this forum, it seems glioblastoma is fairly common. Why have we been abandoned? Whats going on re research? I am not ready to lose my beautiful Dad & neither is my mum.
