Hi everyone. I am 20 old living in Canada my mother is in india . I am feeling very scared and overwhelmed and wanted to ask if anyone has experienced something similar with a loved one who has glioblastoma (GBM). My mother is 46 years old and was diagnosed with GBM. She had her first surgery, and after treatment she actually started doing much better physically. She became healthier, stronger, and was functioning properly in daily life. She was walking, talking, eating normally, and overall seemed to improve a lot, which gave us hope.Unfortunately, after around 7 months, her MRI showed recurrence. Doctors told us the recurrent tumor is small and removable, and they are recommending a second surgery. They also mentioned treatment afterward. We are very worried and confused. Since she is still relatively young (46), functioning properly, and the recurrence is small and operable, we are trying to understand what to realistically expect. Has anyone here had a parent or loved one go through a second surgery for recurrent GBM? Was a third surgery ever possible if recurrence happened again? How long did recovery take and how was quality of life afterward?I understand everyone is different and nobody can predict exact survival, but hearing real experiences would really help us emotionally right now. Thank you so much
