Hi eireann, I'm so so sorry about ur diagnosis, my grandfather was diagnosed with cancer and he tried Fenbenzodol and now he is cancer free, it may help u, u can find vids on UA-cam about it, called the Joe Tippins Protocol. I hope this helps u hun and we r all praying for u
My friends dad has brain cancer and he got 6 months. That was 25 years ago he is still around. It really does happen. Doctors aren’t always right. You are amazing BTW.
I hope she sees this. There are many similar comments but none about brain cancer specifically, and I feel like brain cancer is in a league of its own compared to others so I think this comment is one of the most important in the whole section.
@@Sleepingwei my friend’s dad has several tumours. I’m not sure if they took some out I know they shrunk with radiotherapy. But he is alive and well for sure.
My husbands friend has a brain tumour. He's still alive after 20 years. I know he's in the minority ,with this type of tumour, But there is hope! You may well not grow old but, equally , may well have MUCH more time than you think. Grieve now, then get back up and FULLY LIVE EVERY SINGLE MOMENT YOU'RE GIVEN. Be blessed , beautiful girl
i know such a case, too (really! i am not lying!). they said he would die from a brain tumor (brain stem) in a year. after almost 15 years he is still alive. he cant work anymore, but he is fine. i know he loves gardening so i give him a plant as a present whenever a family member visits me. i am not sure but i think he undergoes some novel treatment now.
We discovered my wife's brain cancer, after a seizure, in November of 2004. She was 41. We were told she had around 6 years. She lived a wonderful life for 16 years, had 4 brain surgeries, over 60 MRIs, more radiation and chemo than anyone should have to endure. She never got off seizure meds, and her cognitive ability, speech, etc. was fine throughout the entire illness. She lived fully, loved fully, and only a few months before her downturn we rode jetskis in the ocean in Jamaica. Her death was not dramatic, and she was in zero pain. She passed peacefully on Monday morning, after visiting and eating lunch the prior Sunday. There are no absolutes. Don't give up hope. Medical science changes quickly, and you are young and strong. You can do this.
a traditional medicine formula could supply you extra biological energy to fight the brain cancer. Three ingredients: lamb, Angelica sinensis (当归，in Chinese store ),ginger.
I am on the same path and watching your videos have made me cry and laugh. I had 3 crainiotomies, radiotherapy and now only have BRAF inhibitor drugs. My life is counted in months now but I am still fighting. Keep going, never give up xx
I am a doctor and I can assure you we talk about statistics and generalities. I’ve seen patients pass months after this diagnosis. 10+ years is PLENTY of time for science to advance. Everything varies from person to person. Also f him for wording it like that. Honesty without empathy is cruelty. Take things day by day. We send you all our strength and love ♥️
@marianarias313 You are so beautiful, mindful, aware ("Honesty without empathy is cruelty."), kind, gracious, and supportive. I'm sure that Eireann will love this comment.
I teach medical students about bedside manner and I have to agree with @marianarias313 - this is not how you do this. He actually gave you some good news: you have more than a decade ahead of you and they have a plan for you to make it as long as possible. But the way he basically kept taking away these other hopeful opportunities and made you focus on the most miserable scenario is heartbreaking to hear. Like @mbprim said, there are weekly advances in cancer treatment and a decade is a long time for these advances to happen. So please, Éireann, keep up the hope, there are very sound arguments for it.
It’s been twelve years and what’s left of my glioma hasn’t grown at all. I’m considered a cancer survivor. There are other possibilities than the worst case. I have a cognitive impairment, and it’s really frustrating sometimes, but I’m alive. I have a bachelors degree that I got AFTER my surgery and I plan on getting my masters degree. I was given five years to live. Five. It’s been twelve. I’m 26. I’m married to the love of my life. I have a job that I love. There is hope. There is.
As a Nurse, I can honestly say if a doctor discourages you from getting a second or third opinion, that is a huge red flag that that doctor is not the one for you. Any doctor, who knows what they are really talking about, welcomes their patients to get a second opinion. Don't give up. A lot can happen in 10 years with research for any and all cancers. You can do this and live a long, happy life. Never count yourself out. Sending all my love and good wishes to you. ❤️
Your energy and honesty is amazing. Thank you for the vulnerable share here - your positive spirit very much shines through. I'm glad the algorithm showed me this tonight. I'm wishing you and Devin the best.
What a sweet, sweet, generous, thoughtful "gesture"! I'm wondering if she even accepted it...she's such a humble, real soul. Just had to comment. Haven't EVER seen something like this before:)
Dearest Éireann, I can't tell you how distressing I found it to watch this video and see you so upset and in despair and offered so little hope by the doctors in Ireland. I've read a number of comments already left before posting this and like everyone else, I think you should get a second opinion. Doctors can often be wrong. The ones in our village in North Wales were wrong telling my wife the "good news" that her malignant melanoma (the worst skin cancer you can get) was nothing to worry about and not worth removing. She nearly died as a result and Soph and Thomas nearly lost their mother. Thank God, she is still with us five years later. I wish I could say something positive to you that could change things - we all do. But I just can't right now. I will say this - I admire you more than ever (if that's possible) - even in the depths of your grief and despair you're helping inspire the rest of us to live our lives to the full and not to wait for a reality check slapping us in the face. Thank you for making me - and many others - better people than we would otherwise be. I hope you can put my donation to a worthy cause - and that worthy cause is YOU and Devin. Enjoy your time together and I so hope it is a great deal longer than 11 years. The world needs special people like you. With love and best wishes Rob (oh, and daughter Soph of course!) xx
PS: I've just made a donation to Brain Tumour Research. I hope it will help further this worthy cause. (As for my donation to you - just spend it on pizza, Guinness or whatever gives you comfort!) Tc xx
@@robcodsallGuinness or any alcohol taking is very bad for her, she needs to eat healthy and drink healthy, please do not encourage a vulnerable person to do more harm to herself, she has a beautiful soul, we pray for her to recover and get better soon.
As a pediatric physician, my opinion is that a physician who uses the word 'never' is an automatic indication for a second opinion. Even if your oncologist is correct, "never" is not a medical term. If you ask a doctor for a second opinion and they say "you probably shouldn't," and it's a life changing diagnosis, GO GET ANOTHER OPINION. It's worth the time, embarrassment, and money. When I finished medical training, I buried patients with the same diagnosis that is curable today and it's been less than a decade. Thanks.
Totally. I fear this consultant had his own battles going on in the pressured NHS. Such doom and gloom is not going to come from every physician. Far from it.
I am a survivor of a brain giloma, located inside of my brain stem. I was diagnosed when I was five, I am now 26. The doctors told my mother I was going to either be blind, deaf, or mute, or a combination, I am none of those things. I am terribly sorry you are experiencing this, no one should experience this, but, the bell hasnt rung yet. You can survive this, do not give up hope. I had a less than 00.1% chance of even surviving, and here I am today, typing to you. Just keep fighting no matter what.
I work at a pharmacy and one of my patients told me, he had pancreatic cancer and there isn't much time left. I don't know how, but this person is still alive and kicking. It was ten years ago he told me about his illness. Don't lose hope 🍀💚
@pdrey100 Or it was God...he's alive, you know, and performing miracles ALL THE TIME! Including healing cancer that's a certain death sentence. I personally know 2 people that have experienced this. It's a beautiful thing and would be such a shame if someone refused to see it as part of life. To open hearts❣️🥂
Hi Éireann, I'm just seeing you for the first time, hearing about your diagnosis, and am wanting to express certainly the sadness I feel about what you're going through but also profound admiration. Your videos, those positive and not, are helping everyone, not just people with illnesses, by showing your incredible grace with regard to the human condition. None of us gets out of here alive, and you're reminding us what matters most. I'm a neuroscientist researcher and clinician and can also tell you that scientific breakthroughs sometimes come with unexpected speed. Don't give too much credence to doctors claiming specific time tables or using words like "never." Sending love, admiration, and buckets of hope from Carlsbad, California.
@@motoroverflow you’re donating 100’dollars and you don’t even know if her story is true or false . Maybe she’s a scam artist . You don’t know that , it happens . You donated money to a person you know nothing about if her story is true or false . I hope you can’t sleep tonight
@@Ime_Prezime well it happens that scam artists fake an illness just to receive donations . I’m not saying this is the case with her but people needs to be more careful donating to someone they know know nothing about , her background . I would investigate scrutinise her before I even consider donating to her cause .
My Aunt has stage 4 cancer and the doctors told her she would be dead in 6 months, but now it's been 18 years later and she's still alive. Don't take 11 years as a maximum lifespan, take it as a minimum. I will live at least 11 years at the minimum. - As for the cognitive decline, as you age you get mentally slower regardless. I'm 41 now and I do not feel as sharp as I was in my 20s. Your case is more extreme of course, but naturally you would get less sharp mentally anyway, just think of it as a little worse than average. Everyone has to deal with bad things in their lives and this is your random bad life modifier. It is also possible more cures come out for cancer within the next decade that could cure yours. I'm hoping for the best for you!
all cancer sux, but you really cant compare them to brain cancer, you skull is X size no extra space, it kinda has an important job in keeping you alive. it also affects your everything, that includes mood / emotions / feelings physically. its one thing to feel emotions due to chemical imbalances u can balance, but physical things are permanent.
Diet has a MASSIVE impact on cognitive decline. Do NOT eat any processed foods, cut out all wheat, grains and seed oils. Cut out the starch, carbs and sugar as cancer loves glucose. Eat a very low carb zero sugar Keto diet or even better a full on carnivore diet. You will reverse many of the lifestyle medical conditions you have collected. Yes you can. Improve cognition and prevent dementia. Over 700 videos on this top YT channel of people giving their first hand experiences of doing just this by going full carnivore diet. www.youtube.com/@zerocarb www.youtube.com/@anthonychaffeemd/search?query=cancer
My friend was diagnosed with leukemia at 17 and doctors told him he would never live more than 5 years. He's now 42, has a beautiful kid and is a great father. Meanwhile, another friend died young and healthy while sleeping, his heart just stopped for no reason. Life is like this, and no one knows what the future holds. Live your life like you're going to live forever and enjoy every moment of it. Regards from Portugal.
@pololikikuju Really? Thats where you go with this? Guess what. I had a friend suddenly pass from a heart attack at 20. He was healthy, no known issues whatsoever. His heart suddenly failed. It was 2000. Sometimes that stuff unfortunately just happens. And when youre working with a huge population like "everyone of a country" theres going to be unexpected heart related deaths of otherwise healthy young people. Because those things just happen. But since covid happened, people want to tie every out of nowhere severe medical event to that vaccine.
I have a 7-month-old daughter, and this absolutely moved me to tears. I am so sorry to see what you are going through, and I wish I could take your pain away. But I am so glad/proud to see you have the ability to maintain hope.
I hope they find a cure. I know professors have contacts with each other about this sort of cancers. Erasmus UMC Rotterdam is specialized in braintumors. In Holland research for braincancer is also minimal. Lost my sister to a very agressive form; glioblastoma multiforma
I work within child cancer research and there is so much going on right now within the research field! I don't know if you, for example, have heard of Whole Genome Sequencing? Where I work we have a new centre for real high tech stuff. And I heard that a boy with Pontine glioma recently was cured from it! And it earlier was incurable. Just wanted to share this! ❤️
Please please please please get a second opinion, and maybe a third. Shame on that oncologist for saying those things to you and intentionally telling you there is no hope. They absolutely don't know that - it is all statistics, and odds, and nothing is for sure (as many others have already commented). I recommend reading the book "The Expectation Effect" by David Robson. It is an outstanding book that is completely based in science. There is enormous power in belief - use it.
Cancer is a billion dollar industry, a cure means the end of big business, that’s why they shoot people down that cure themselves naturally (Gerson Therapy) , look at how the mainstream media is treating Elle MacPherson for completely curing breast cancer naturally!
My husband was diagnosed with brain cancer in 2004 and given 3-6 months. He celebrated his 20th alive-iversary on September 29th! Doctors cannot predict your outcome because your spirit matters! Also KEEP advocating for yourself and getting more opinions that is what we have done and we keep finding answers that help us keep going and finding hope. My husband was told the past 4years his tumor that recurred in 2021 was inoperable by countless doctors and yet we kept asking and searching for answers and found an amazing surgeon who felt confident he could get most of the tumor out and September 12th they removed ALL of the tumor!! There is hope and I hope my husbands story can find you that hope! We are sending you deep deep love and healing!
@@kristinerwalsh always always and our mind is more important than we realize! My husband has never thought he was gonna die from this and holds that spirit so strong in him. He doesn’t say he is fighting cancer because he isn’t just simply part of this life journey he is on
@@liberta12 yes it’s Dr. Kris Smith at Barrow in Phoenix Arizona he is AMAZING! They have a second opinion program where you can submit all your records and they review your case for only $100 and then send a detailed second opinion. You can do it from anywhere in the world and the surgeon is truly something beyond
I got a simple slap on my eyes and my immune system…and even though it’s common when it shouldn’t be..the way cancer is….it made me unable to bear a lot of shallow struggles..a lot of political medical and social nonsense….the external world doesn’t function on the concept of life’s fragility…all people spend 50 years between education and work as if we all have the same time…which we don’t… They system is robotic until you face death
To be honest, only from the way you previously spoke about your cancer, I figured you prognostic was under 2 years. But girl, 11 years is so hopeful!! Medecine advances so much in a decade! So many things could change! Also what you got told at your appointment was only the opinion/knowledge of one men. I feel very hopeful for you, hope you have better days ahead❤
Don’t listen to the doctors because my sister was told the very same thing and she lived a good life of 40 more years. She worked , lived her life, enjoyed friends. Medicine is always advancing and I strongly believe there will be a breakthrough for you. Most importantly, acknowledge and cling to God.
Take one day at a time. Please, for your own sake, stop getting your information from Tik Tok and UA-cam! Rely on medical health professionals. Do you know how to meditate or have a faith where you can find your center?
I have no idea who you are but I thought with a title like you have, you deserve 15 minutes of my time. I’m not going to check out any of your other videos because I’ll get all sad but I promise you this, I’m going to come back to your channel in 12 years time and I wanna see you with a video saying “how I beat cancer” You got this and NEVER give up! ❤
This was a difficult watch - to see somebody not much older than I be in such a position breaks my heart. I cannot begin to imagine what you go through on the daily but I admire your strength and courage. I wish you a million happy memories and a life full of joy.
I was diagnosed with cancer when I was 29. I am a cancer survivor as I'm now a 64 year old granny. When I was first diagnosed and told I had the dreaded big C I realised that you can change most things in your life if you wanted to, but a cancer diagnosis is something that can't be changed. I pray that you find a place of peace and acceptance to get you through the roller coaster of emotions you are going through. Never, ever, give up as no matter what the doctors may tell you God may have other ideas. Eireann we're sending you strength and love and the biggest virtual hug that UA-cam can send you. Keep smiling you beautiful lady. 💞
11 years is quite long and medicine will get better. You should always stay optimistic ❤. Sometimes you will worry and its normal, but meditate, do deep breathing exerxises, and eat brain foods. Keep a low sugar Diet, because cancer needs glucose from sugar to grow and spread. Cancer can be starved if we eat alot of vegetables and organic grass fed meats, nuts, sardines, salmon, high in omega 3, and free range organic chicken eggs. Eat fruits high in vitamin C but low on the glycemic index such as watrmelon, blueberries, black berries, apples, kiwi and others. Fruits helps to power our immune system, powers your líver and kidney to detoxify the blood and allow the body to heal, and take in more oxygen. Replace sugars with organic honey, stevia, and other sweetners that helps the body to stay in a cáncer destroying state but use these with moderation. I am hopeful for you and your loving family. Cáncer affects the entire family. So you all be strong for each other. GOD BLESS.
My husband’s oncologist always told us that they can only tell us what Science says. Everyone is different and all one can do is work on getting stronger. You and Devin are a really special couple and I think you should have the beautiful wedding that you were planning. What a special memory that you and all the family and friends will have. Don’t apologise for upsetting us. I would love to be able to just put my arms around you and give you a big hug. You’re really special. I’m sorry this has happened to you. My first thought when you started was to get a second opinion. This man differs so much from what you were previously told so find somebody else to give another opinion and then you can settle what is probably right. Lots of love to you. Make sure that you make your time really worthwhile and happy. It’s very hard but you can do it. I speak from experience 💕
@@sparkdrive2900 I was just trying to spread some kindness here. My mum died from a cancer and we tried to keep the hope until the end. It really helped enjoying the little moments of life.
that's why people try to make their neighbour's life miserable all the time. Practising fault finding in order to find any excuse to treat others like if they were rubbish with no basic rights. And everything starts in the mind: "God saw that human evil was out of control. People thought evil, imagined evil-evil, evil, evil from morning to night. God was sorry that he had made the human race in the first place; it broke his heart. God said, “I’ll get rid of my ruined creation...".
@@MrGittz one guy told me one time: "people is cruel". It's people who inflict pain on others. The commands from the high power are clear: "So then, in everything treat others the same way you want them to treat you,..." but people do exactly the very opposite. it's not about a belief, it's about will (unfair judgment) and behaviour: "By this gospel you are saved, if you hold firmly to the word I preached to you. Otherwise, you have believed in vain."
11 years of survival is not that bad though....... comparing it with the much more common heart failure (which can come a shitload, really, a SHITLOAD of different reasons at ANY age basically, and in the USofA i think 5% of all people living there have it in some degree) where the average survival is just shy of 4,5 years, and that disease have really-really nasty'n horrible "flareups", when you can't breathe, can't leave bed because your heart muscle is so weak you feel like you're having a heart stoppage (cardiac arrest) constantly, and you obviously can't do anything "fun" because it puts too much strain on your heart. And those flareups keep on going for months on end, and then you get like 2-3 better months, then hell comes back, only every consecutive time ever more viciously....... the one lucky thing is that there are quite potent medications to treat it nowadays, like loop diuretics and amiodarone...... but still, it is a horrible way to go, if you manage to keep lucidity near the end.
Dear Éireann, never lose hope. You are a brave and positive woman. God bless you. ❤🙏🏻 Wishing you all the best-you’re going to be okay. Greetings from Brazil! 🤍
I don’t know if you can but research oncologist and get that 2nd opinion. No one should say that whether they are confident or not. Call them get a referral or call the oncologist anywhere you want and get an appointment. I’m a nurse in the US and work with high risk pregnancies patients or babies. Our patients ask for 2nd opinion we get it that day. We work to make it happen because sometimes other Doctors have different experiences and outcomes. I can honestly say that the world of genetics and cancer research has exploded in the past few years. Never give up hope. New discoveries come out all the time. New research studies as well. You are a beautiful young woman and have an amazing family and partner. Let them love on you and on those foggy days give yourself grace and realize this doesn’t define you. The seizure medication he has no idea if you will need it long term. He has given you statistics and worst case scenario. Sometimes Doctors do that but in any set of medical conditions there are those that defy the odds. Put in the research and find a credible oncologist that specializes in this type of cancer and see them. Easily some of our patients we could say you will die before giving birth. We have cancers, heart conditions that are bad, kidney failure, transplants and some with multiple other things. Some make it and live a good while. One thing about medicine is it isn’t always black and white. Cry if you need to actually it releases endorphins and can help. See a therapist you like and who is supportive of you. Tell them your goals they can help you handle what is going on giving you a safe place to cry, be angry or however you feel without judgement. They should if not get a new one. I certainly will keep you, your family, your friends, and the medical team better in my prayers, or send out good energy to the world.
I also have a brain tumor and ignored your warnings. What you said in the end about enjoying every moment is so incredibly true. That is what keeps me going is being so grateful for the time I have with my family.

while getting the appropriate medical treatments, the best thing to do is to prepare the soul for the next stage by making peace with others and repenting of sins. i'll pray for you.
Oh, sweetie. I'm old but I've had a lot of cancer. Right now your perspective is so fresh and raw with the news of the disease process. Try not to panic. You have time to adapt and accept the diagnosis. There is a place of peace in your future, regardless the outcome.

I remember when Magic Johnson was diagnosed with HIV back in the 90s. At that time it was a death sentence and Nobody would have believed he would still be around here in 2024 and healthy. In the medical world, eleven years is a long time and there is every reason to have hope.
Yes, I remember too. It wasn't "if" he would die, it was how soon. Now HIV is considered a condition that can be managed well and people lead full healthy lives.
I’m a nurse and while I believe in honesty, NO ONE HUMAN BEING KNOWS WHEN OUR TIME IS UP. Find another doctor for a second opinion. You need to have someone who has a positive outlook and is a positive person. Ten years is a long time for new treatments to develop. Don’t give up. I am rooting for you. ❤
I just found your account today and watched your cancer videos all the way through. You have such a beautiful personality. You don't owe anybody positivity! But your comments about gratitude have made me think.
You're such a beautiful soul! It's heartbreaking to see you in such despair. You have the life to live, and so many moments yet to experience. Don’t let sadness and sorrow steal the light within you!
isn't that much of a time as you think it is , time flys by 😭 but its better then nothing. Some people only get few months. It is still a guess by the doctor , as she might live abit longer then that or less :( ( I hope she lives longer but the reailty is not even the doctor knows for sure, it is an educated guess. It isnt set in stone.
@@michaelhawkins7389 Eleven years, which is over a decade. If that's not a lot of time to you, may I ask what is? Relative to a human life, a decade is a decent amount of time. Relative to grand historical timescales sure maybe not.
@@michaelhawkins7389actually compared to many other animals it is a long time so in that context it is a long time as humans in general tend to live a lot longer than many other animals
Sometimes there is just not a lot to say, other than we are listening and we care. You are a kind, sweet soul and everything you feel is valid. As a medical student specializing in oncology, I can assure you that cancer advancements are happening weekly. I pray that in a few years, there will be a safe and effective treatment for you. Sending lots of love- this is just a difficult, confusing, frustrating situation for you. I do recommend more opinions if you have the means. It never hurts.
I don’t think that first part of your initial sentence was very appropriate. Thats not very kind or helpful to someone who had to be devastating news. “ sometimes there is no a lot to say” should not be the way we handle human care when breaking the news of sometime’s lifespan.
Honestly no words can describe the emotions i have for you and everyone else thats going threw this. I just randomly scrolled too this video and all i can say is thank you for informing us all what it is and too spread your wisdom. Thank you truly and may god bless your soul❤️
@@lawrencewong100 donating is all about teamwork. If all the people that commented donated just $1, she could raise $4000. Even if you can't afford to donate, you can share the link to spread the message. The more awareness they get, the more donations they get.
@@lawrencewong100 Not everyone has a ton of cash sitting around. Especially in Europe the economic situation is crap thanks to a government made from clowns.
I would never stick with a doctor that made me feel hopeless. It is very important to remain hopeful and to have somebody caring for you that actually...cares. EDITED TO ADD: Please look up Stephanie Seban. She got diagnosed with terminal breast cancer in June 2011 and is thriving today even though the chances that she had of making it even 5 years were very low. She has many great philosophies related to this.
@@winifix There are plenty of honest doctors who also don't pretend they have a crystal ball to say exactly the number of years somebody will live and that there is no hope of any medical advances in that period.
@@winifix An honest doctor would not pretend to know how long you have left. As a medical student, I have been told that the idea of doctors "predicting" the number of years a patient has 'left' is practically never something that should be brought up in an appointment; because disregarding the impossibility of giving a 100% guarantee, it also simply serves no positive purpose whatsoever. My aunt was diagnosed with breast cancer in her 50's and she made a complete recovery and has been cancer free for years, and her morale throughout the entire treatment protocol was shockingly positive. Stress has been shown to be associated with an uncountable number of diseases, and it's foolish and dishonest to claim that it plays no role in the recovery process of any patient with practically any disease. Also, I just read your comment from a few hours ago on this channel, and I'm sorry to hear about your diagnosis and the difficulty you've had to go through with that surgery, and having to abide by less "surgical" and tangible treatment regimens since you can't have a third surgery. The world has changed so much in the last 20 years, as has medicine, and treatment methods have grown to be much more effective and with less side effects than how they used to be. I will not ask or encourage you blindly to "Oh be positive, have hope! Live, laugh, love!" etc etc, if it's against what you're feeling right now and would only feel worse to hear that - it's important to feel your feelings and there's no better feelings to feel, the bad and the good. But what I hope is that you try to trust the process, advocate for your own health, and harbor no feelings of guilt nor resentment towards yourself. And I wish you nothing but the best on your journey towards improvement, recovery, and hopefully being tumor-free once again.
I was so moved by this video. Miracles do happen so I will add you to my prayer list. You're so brave and there's no shame in how you feel and certainly not in crying. God bless and keep you 🙏
Seeing you crying like this honestly broke my heart. It hurts knowing that someone as amazing as you is facing this. I wish I could take away the pain you're feeling. I hope that you, Devin and your family find the happiness and peace you all deserve, and that the challenges you're facing right now bring you closer.
Please don't justify yourself, especially towards sb who doesn't do nor give anything ! If everyone watching and liking Eireann gave even one Euro or dollar, it'd make a big amount ! Sending you warm thoughts for support & better times 💚
Eireann, thank you for sharing your struggles and humility. Let me share with you that my mother fought cancer for 38 years. Her shear will to live, her mindset, I am sure, is what gave her strength to overcome the odds. In fact, she was not supposed to live much beyond my birth! However, she got to see me, her youngest, graduate as high school valedictorian. She was able to be there when I accepted my Bachelors in Engineering and then my Masters. She was there when I got married and was able to see the home I built. Fast-forward, the initial cancer that kicked off in her body all those years ago is now readily treated and has a high survival rate. Point being, a lot can change in these times! Strength be with you!
Thank You. Its so incredobly hard to talk about this, but I think its invaluable. Before I was diagnosed with me/cfs, I thought about all the possible ways I could be dying, and the best word to describe that feeling is "painful". I actually came across your channel because of my frantic search to find out wtf is wrong with me. Feeling like youre in the looming shadow of deaths door brings a loneliness like no other, and it really does put everything into perspective. I think this video will remind ppl to do all that they can to live the life they want to live with whatever time they've got left, and thats beautiful. Life expectancy goes down slightly with me/cfs, but even a full lifetime can be wasted if youre not cognizant of death. So again, thank you. I wish you didn't have to be strong, but please keep being strong, and be selfish, and do what you love with the people you love, no matter what any doctor or study says.
It is so heartbreaking to hear you apologize for potentially making us upset because you're making a sad video. Even then you're thinking about others. I'm sending you the biggest hug in the world and I am not giving up hope ♥
My aunt lived with brain cancer for 25 years after being told she had less than 6 months to live. Not everyone is so lucky but it does happen. And as others have said, medicine knows so much more now than it did then and the same will be true in the years to come.
lord indeed i lift up Peel during their difficult loss of their Aunt lord right now i just ask that you please just wrap your warm and comforting arms around them and their family also at this time in Jesus Name I send my deepest condolences and claim much peace and comfort that surpasses all understanding be multiplied and poured out on this family and we know if this Aunt belongs to you then this is only a temporary loss as we will all be reunited one glorious day and I truly believe 1st Thessalonians 4:16-18 is drawing much closer now! oh God again please just hold the family close to you and each other during this difficult time is my prayer in Jesus Name Amen!!!!!
Oncologists are clueless when it comes to cancer. These cancer doctors keep doing the same old useless and dangerous cancer treatments over and over again expecting a different outcome. Now go listen to Dr. Thomas Seyfried he has lots of video's on UA-cam.
When doctors tell patients they only have a few months to live, is it because they physically LOOK like they will die in the near future??.. I ask because my mom was just put on hospice care 😢. She has ovarian cancer and pancreatic cancer. The chemo was initially working, then they switched it to another chemo drug and health has declined a lot. Now they’re telling us there’s nothing else they can do and to just let her die.
@ oh lord right now i majorly and urgently lift up covergirl06 her mother and all according to your perfect will I just ask in Jesus Name that you would just totally rebuke curse and cast out this evil spirit of Cancer in the name of the father son and holy spirit and according to your perfect will please deliver us an awesome cancer free report lord that’s my prayer and that’s my hope!!!!!! oh God much despite this situation still i know your hand is on this sister’s mom and you will see her throughout thick and thin also i majorly pray and i just ask that you please just wrap your warm and comforting arms around this mom and no matter what might transpire may unimaginable perfect rest peace grace mercy satisfaction and comfort be totally multiplied and poured out on her to much much help her to pull through this ordeal and by all means please help this family’s faith to grow stronger each and everyday and help them not to in any way get discouraged but to totally trust your will and lean on the everlasting arms of Jesus each and everyday to the fullest extent and i still believe you’re the God of miracles and the impossible so finally my major prayer is that you please break the unbreakable move the immovable and from the impossible we’ll see a miracle God we believe for it in the name of the father son and holy spirit lord that’s my prayer and that’s my hope amen!!!!!
My husband was diagnosed 15 years ago with a brain tumour and the median lifespan was 11 years. After ten years he did the radiation chemo combo for 18 mos and his tumour has been stable since the end of his treatment. We also were just told that he may now qualify for new trials after all these years new research and new trials have starts. Every tumour is different and acts differently in a different body and there is no way that they know what your tumours is going to do exactly. Do not give up hope because anything is possible especially since they don’t know exactly your tumours type… live each day with joy as you do and stay out of the rabbit holes! You’re thought of often! ❤
He did radiation for 18 months? Have you seen any cognitive decline after that? The brain usually will start to severely degrade after radiation therapy.
@@yuleassagai1684 sorry I guess I should edit to say that he did 6weeks of combined radiation and chemo and then the chemo continued for another 17 months. He will not be able to have radiation again in that area but chemo could be an options again. He did have severe fatigue for about a year after radiation. He did however have a small stroke because the radiation did cause some premature aging of his blood vessels and while that was a risk of radiation. I feel his high blood pressure, which was hereditary was a major contribution to the stroke. He recovered quite well from his stroke. We are very lucky.
I work in hospice and I’ve seen many people with many different diseases decline and eventually pass away. My last brain tumor/brain cancer patient outlived his prognosis date by almost 15 years. He died peacefully in his sleep and was lucid until 2 hours before he passed. He had seizures and those were admittedly difficult for him, but he was surrounded by love and support and that made everything bearable for him. I hope that you have a full and abundant life no matter how much time you have left (which I hope is many many years!) ❤️
lord right now i lift up the family of this brother that’s deceased and right now i just ask that you please just wrap your warm and comforting arms around them all and in Jesus Name I send my deepest condolences and claim much peace and comfort that surpasses all understanding be multiplied and poured out on this family and we know if this family belongs to you then this is only a temporary loss as we will all be reunited one glorious day and I truly believe 1st Thessalonians 4:16-18 is drawing much closer now! oh God again please just hold the family close to you and each other during this difficult time is my prayer in Jesus Name Amen!!!!!
15 years of laying in bed while having the occasional grand mal? Who is it that that information's supposed to make feel better? I wish you very well though, not many people are capable of doing a hospice nursing job.
@@istvancsap3513 he was not bed bound for 15 years nor did he have grand mal seizures. He was active and independent, living on his own without assistance for those 15 years. Only on hospice the last month of his life and even then was able to live alone until his final 3 days. He had what are called absence seizures which didn’t involve any shaking in his body, only brief moments of what looked like staring into space. His seizures weren’t daily or even weekly in most cases. Hospice doesn’t always look like what you think it looks like, which was my point exactly! So thank you for your comment which allowed me to reinforce that his death and decline was all around peaceful and something I was hoping to explain to provide comfort instead of fear.
@@istvancsap3513 I think you misunderstood. She did not say the patient was in bed for 15 years, only that they lived for 15 years after the diagnosis. Many brain tumor patients can have a good quality of life until rather shortly before death.
Dear Éireann, My brother is going through treatment for a Astrocytoma grade 2/3, that's also a brain tumor, for the second time. The first time was 13 years ago, and back then, they gave him 2 years to live. But he is still here, fighting and LIVING. He has 3 kids and wants to see them grow. The one thing that we all learned with this battle is that no one never knows anything for sure. Don't give up. You are not alone.
As a younger person diagnosed with an early stage lung cancer as a nonsmoker, I look at every day with gratitude and appreciation. Keep focusing on all that love that surrounds you, Beautiful Eireanne. Your family, your friends, your pets, everything that brings you joy from simple walks outside in natural surroundings to music to movement…keep yourself busy with the fight! DO NOT get caught up in “11 years”. How in the world does he know?? You might as well be asking God himself. So many advances are being made in cancer research and treatment all the time. Sending you huge, heartfelt hugs from Seattle. ♥️♥️♥️
@@Katelovesanimalsmost2134 Yes, I started following Jenny Apple after my diagnosis. ❤🩹Did you know 25% of women with lung cancers are nonsmokers like us? The stigma attached to lung cancer is real and, like Eireanne mentioned with brain cancer, are underfunded and underresearched. It takes awareness so I will continue to advocate so others will realize anyone with lungs can get lung cancer. Mine was found at Stage 1, thankfully. I continue to very regular CT surveillance.
@@Katelovesanimalsmost2134 Yes, I found Jenny Apple after my diagnosis. 🤍 25% of women diagnosed with lung cancer are nonsmokers like us. The reality is, if you have lungs, you can get lung cancer. Nonsmokers with LC hate the stigma attached! Luckily, mine was found at Stage 1 and I will continue to have regular CT surveillance, likely forever.
Stay strong girl!! Sending positive vibes and prayers! We'll all be there someday. Wake up everyday, as if it was your last. The best motto to live by!
Hi Eireann. It seems to me a big part of your life, is to give others strength and find their own courage in such an extremely trying time. In my life I have seen much. The one thing that has always stood out was the people I’ve know who go through such a devastating, heartbreaking time; they’re the best people I know, by far. It’s just a fact, this always happens. You’re definitely no exception! I think getting a second opinion should have been something your doctor recommended. I’m glad you’re going to do that. If you want to take your family out somewhere special, here’s a “wee” ❤😊bit towards that; or whatever you want of course. Paul Fuse at me if you must, for disregarding your wishes. Please take and have a good time with Devin.
A big hug from New Zealand from a terminal cancer patient in New Zealand - somehow you and I are on the wrong train and it's a bumpy ride,but take some comfort knowing you're not on that ride alone. Give yourself permission to spend some time grieving about this - but also learn to let go of what you can't hold onto anymore. If you can master that, you'll squeeze the most living you can out of life while you've got it.
Sorry to hear about your situation 😢 But 11 years is a long time! As a pharmacist, i can reassure you that even though research for brain cancer has been slow, there have been promising developments recently, such as the use of the polio virus which is now in Phase 2 of clinical trials!! So there is definitely a chance that new and effective treatments may emerge while you're still around. All hope isn't lost and I wish you the best! ❤ Also you should definitely get a second opinion.
Oh, your channel has come to me by some kind of...whatever, I don't know. But I see the strength beyond those tears. It has been almost 9 years since the day I got that result - hypopharyngeal cancer, spreaded, and mute forever after that surgery. And here I am today reading your description and feeling so resonated. Thanks for sharing some parts of your life to us! ❤
Every single case is different...please don't ever give up HOPE because that is all there really is. Never forget, there are 45,000 of us out here pulling for you, thinking about you, and sending you positive energy. I wish you all the best!
Shame on that doctor for taking away your hope, that should never happen. Science is advancing and with that there is time for new discoveries and treatments. Don’t give up, attitude is everything. I’m sending good thoughts and love as you navigate this disease.
Doctors have a responsibility to tell the truth to their best of their current knowledge. They can ofc sugarcoat it with optimism about the possible progress of science but fast and clearcut progress is not a given. They were very optimistic in the 80s about cancer being totally curable in the 2000s and did not happen. Unfortunately progress in science is absolutely unpredictable and not linear.
Doctors lack empathy, I still haven't forgiven my grandma's Doctor when she had colon cancer, he basically told her that she wasn't gonna live as long as she wanted to.
I admire you for your honesty and openness and for the way you approach and react to the many hard, hard developments in your path through this situation. I had brain surgery a year ago for a serious, but not terminal, condition. It's been the worst year of my life. I have recovered pretty well, but I assure you, I haven't handled it with a fraction of the grace and strength you show. I am in my 60s, and with the various health problems I have, I frankly doubt I have 11 years left. I truly wish I could take yours and give you back all the decades I have lived.
Hey Eirian , I know there is nothing I can say to alleviate this. But You are precious 🙏🏻 I will pray for you 💙🙏🏻 Enjoy every second. Fight and love yousaelf and your family 💙 this vid brought me to tears but also taught me a lot , for that I thank you. Shamel
Eireann, I am in my senior year of high school and a few months ago I had a very rare jaw tumor removed. You have been such an inspiration to me as I have gone through the ups and downs! Your story is helping so many people to cope and feel listened to and heard. I am praying for you, your family, and any one involved in your care team for courage and wisdom. Thank you ❤, -Ellie, John 16:33
I follow another UA-camr. A woman with a husband who had a brain tumor (cancerous). Im unsure if it’s the same as yours, but he has lived 20 years with his tumor. He is right now recovering after a doctor decided to remove it after years of him being told he wasn’t able to. The point of this is, seek that second, third, fourth opinion. If you’re able to travel, see if there are other providers that are more experienced. Dont give up, because there is a point to fighting and finding treatment. I can’t imagine what you’re going through. I promise you there is hope.
My sister has stage 3b colon cancer. She’s starting chemo in October. She’s 44 and has 2 kids who are 8 and 2. Have faith…no one’s life is secure, I could die in an accident tomorrow. Just hang on to life and never ever give up hope. God is with you! ❤
I hope your sister will cure from this illness and have a joyful life, faith is what we have , but our body is our machine in this life positive mind set goes along way , hoping for a quick and good recovery for your sister, my friend.
my next-door neighbor won against STAGE 4 colon cancer WITHOUT radiation or chemo. He REFUSED chemo, because it killed his wife some years ago, and he couldn't bear to go through the experience again on himself. Here's what he said he did: "Eat 25 apricot seeds DAILY. Add them to smoothies, or eat them like almonds. They contain cyanide, but not enough to kill you unless you eat 200 a day. The cells throughout your body have a defense that fights off the cyanide, but CANCER CELLS CANNOT. 25 apricot seeds daily WILL have an effect on your fight against cancer. Equal to the effect of CUTTING SUGAR COMPLETELY."

I have a friend who had lung cancer, which metastasized to her brain- 8 tumors. It was long enough ago that she was in a clinical trial of Opdivo. It worked for her. She's been cancer free since BUT she does take anti-seizure meds daily. The point is, she was in the trial as a last resort yet she's still here. She's outlived every doctor's estimate of her life expectancy. And the best advocate for your health is YOU. If you feel like you need another opinion, right for it. You know your body better than anyone.
@@watchthisheadspace Of course in clinical trials you may in some instances be in the placebo group as my wife was for parkinson's disease. but after the trials she was welcome to have the experimental drug.
@@Lalaland-q2z I've heard of some instances where people have been specifically put on the drug in the trial. Totally get placebo effect but also shrinking tumours are objectively measurable
I am so sorry you got slammed with all this. Glioblastoma affects everyone differently. No one has all the answers. It is like getting kicked in the face by a mule. You are braver then you think. I will pray for you everyday. My husband passed away with Glioblastoma and he did not have a terrible time. He got a fever ,went to sleep ,and just quietly left us. I hope this gives you some comfort.. I hate that you are so scarred. You have so many people that are here to support you .Hang onto your hope.
My husband deteriorated like a staircase down a bit then ok for a while then down a bit, like you said, he didnt have a terrible death, he didnt even have pain of any sort, I got up to make him a cup of tea and when I came back he was gone
I heard multiple times that the cure for cancer was discovered by many scientists but those scientists die “ from natural causes” and the reason why they never let it happen because pharmaceutical companies are making wealth off of cancer drugs , another proof is that only specific people get access to the cure of cancer such as princess Kate , she got healed from cancer REALLY fast .
Thank you for trusting us with such a personal journey. You have so many people, who will never stop hoping for a miracle for you. Thank you for reminding me, that we all need to treasure the days we have, because you never know what life has for you. Sending you love and positive thoughts always!
1st time viewer here, recommended from the algorithm. For what it's worth, I hope and pray for you, your rad sounding partner, family & friends to have the most amazing, full-to-the-brim, and adventurous lives together for many decades. Cheers and God Bless from West Coast USA.
I’m the exact same age as you and live in Munich, Germany and I found your channel recently when your Adele video popped up on my feed. I wanted to go the concert but couldn’t get tickets so I lived vicariously through your vlog. I have to say your personality and positive energy is so infectious and i immediately subscribed and started following your journey. You are so authentic, beautiful, and kind and I can tell all that without even having met you in person. Don’t ever change. Don’t let cancer change who you are. It does not define you and if you don’t let it define your life it can’t really take your life. You are meant to be here for a long time 💛
I have such a lump in my throat watching you talk so honestly because you say the things everyone thinks. I can't imagine how you are feeling. I'm so sorry you have to go through this. If you believe in prayer, I'm praying for you and thinking of you and your family
Shame on that doctor. Positive attitude is one of the best remedies, he took that from you! Be strong, get another or many more opinions and like so many have said don’t give up. You have many people praying for you. You are a beautiful, smart young woman with a wonderful man who loves you, let that bring joy to you and be positive and get more opinions, prove him wrong.
Definitely get a 2nd, 3rd, 4th opinion, as many as it takes. Everyone's body is different. No doctor can be absolutely sure what anyones outcome is goin to be or be certain how much time someone has left. I've read so many comments on your channel and the proof is right there. Keep fighting precious angel. You got this. God bless you🙏
Eireann, I am absolutely devastated and heartbroken to see your grief and hear what you were told. I have a low grade glioma too, just had my first surgery in august of this year. I’m 34, I have a 5 month old son and an amazing supportive husband. I just want you to know I see you, I feel your pain and understand the devastation to face that reality living to 80 just isn’t in the cards for us. I empathize with how frustrating it can be to hear people constantly be like, “but you’re going to be the special miracle case who beats this!”, when you know the reality of the disease. It’s good to be positive but sometimes you just need to cry and be angry that this happened to you. Sometimes the stories of “I know so-and-so who had a brain tumor and they’re fine!” are not helpful, especially when you are in a pit of despair. People don’t know what to say so the impulse is to try and make u feel better by being positive. But I always say if words could fix the problem I wouldn’t have brain cancer. Just want you to know I’m following your journey in solidarity and hoping you will continue to spend your time making memories with those you love for as long as possible. With love from Canada ❤️ Ps. Please get that second opinion. Consider going to the USA to a leading hospital like Mayo or MD Anderson for a consultation. Dr. Bendok at Mayo Arizona is awesome, was the best $600 USD I ever spent to get some peace of mind.
I am so sorry that you are going through this as well. I'm sure that your words of solidarity will be appreciated. All the best to you and your family!
Good god you are a strong human being. I cannot express how you've influenced my perspective and appreciation for what I have. I hope to face my strife and mortality with as much grace as you. All the best wishes, and thank you❤️
Hey Eireann, I was diagnosed with Anaplastic Astrocytoma, not a great brain cancer to have, at age 19, was told it was especially aggressive and my chances past a year were 21% - I’m 31 now and have been cancer free for 9 years. You don’t know what your genes have got it in them to fight this challenge you’ve been presented with - but you sure as hell need to give them all the energy they need, but remember, cellular energy is derived from your general hormonal chemistry as well as your food and nutrient intake, so whilst many around you will fuss over your physical health, remember that your emotional health needs all the strength it can get too. As I always say, fixing a dent in your car needs pushing from the inside too, as does a dent in your life.
I was diagnosed with brain cancer 9 years ago, diffused astrocytoma, and your video sounds exactly how I felt after meeting with my doctor. I know what you are going through, and I believe you will come out stronger. Don't allow the negative energy to consume your thoughts. Make plans and live your life. Don't allow fear to guide you. The amazing thing about life is that you get to choose how you want to feel and react. ❤
Sweet girl, I’m so sorry. Definitely push for that second opinion and even third and fourth if necessary. Even with the underfunding for brain cancer, I don’t agree with him that there’s no point because nothing will change in ten years. That’s ridiculous and very unfair of him to say that. I wish there was something I could say to comfort you, but I know there isn’t. I am so glad you have such wonderful support around you. It’s important to allow yourself the bad days to feel it all - you’re literally grieving the life you thought you’d have and unless they’ve been through it, people can’t understand. I don’t know if it’s something you’ve considered but when you’re ready I highly recommend finding a counsellor with experience of young people with cancer. It helped me so so much. Sending you all the love and a huge hug. 💖💖💖
Honestly an insane thing to say on his part, they are literally working on targeted therapies for brain cancer right now that will be available in the next 5 years or so. Also the FDA just approved a new drug called Vorastinib in August that targets tumors with specific mutations (unfortunately not the BRAF mutation she has, but still there is progress being made)
@@ruthginger1023 Exactly! It’s been twelve years since my diagnosis (different type of cancer) and the treatments now are very different and more tailored than they were then. Advancements are being made all the time and for any doctor to say what he said is not ok.
My son was misdiagnosed and told he would not live to be 10 years old. Now he is 13 and he is too sweet and too good, he has epilepsy, he loves animals, he is interested in the meaning of life and helping others. I wish you a lot of strength and don't believe everything they say, miracles happen every day. 🍀🙏🍀
I had a different type of cancer and survided but watching your video made me cry only in the way when I had cancer. It feels like you cry so much that your eyelids could turn inside out.... Anyway, I hope you make it. Even if you don't, squeeze as much life as you can out of the days that you have left. Some people live till they're 80 and just coast through life, not really achieving or doing anything. Just do what you really want to do. Also, it's not about achieving. Just do it. Just do what you want and don't try to please anyone but yourself. That can make you ill. One pure moment of happiness can be better than a whole life of nothingness. Don't waste your energy and emotions on sadness. xx
It's not negative to feel, Eireann. You have to grieve and process to make right with it - and you will, I promise. You can pour out your emotions anytime - I'll cry along with you each time. Sending love and hugs as always.🤍🫂
I’m so sorry! I’ve been following your story for a long time now.. Life is just so fragile. My husband has cystic fibrosis and was told he most likely would only live to be 10 years of age. He’s now turning 41. Keep that in the back of your mind and try to remember there is always hope. I’m thinking of you and praying for you sweet, Eireann. 💛
Don't give up hope! 11 years seems very short, but for medical advancements it's long. There may be new drugs or treatments in the future. Don't apologize for crying or for feeling the things you feel, in the position you are in you are valid for feeling angry, sad, or scared. Take as much time as you need, we will always be here for you.
My husband was diagnosed with brain cancer following a series of absent seizures and an MRI in 2017. It was extremely hard news to swallow - he was 23 at the time and healthy as could be. They were unable to determine what kind of tumor it was, aside from the fact that it was quite aggressive. He took chemo and radiation, had 2 brain surgeries within a few months of each other, and he was told he’d be on anti-seizure meds for the rest of his life. 7 years later, his MRIs continue to come back clear and he is officially off his anti-seizure meds. Of course every case is different, but I truly hope that you can find it in yourself to hold onto hope, and the knowledge that things do not always go the way they’re expected to go. I wish I had anything more meaningful to say, but I am rooting for you, and I will be thinking of you and your loved ones ❤ I’m so glad you have a good support system
The Oncologist gave my wife six months to live and that was three years ago. You just never know. Now we just take it from one birthday to the next with each one a huge accomplishment. You seem like a sweetheart please stay strong.
Big hug Éireann 🤗 it’s bloody shitty you’re all going through this, please God some miracle will happen before the 11 years. The way you speak so openly and still manage to articulate yourself so well, shows great strength. Of course, it’s only natural you’d be upset. You are such an incredible lady for sharing. Sending big love ❤
Oh boy, I have to really stop myself going off. I would never go back to that doctor again. There is so much wrong with what this doctor told you. So many red flags. I cannot overstate how important it is to keep a positive mental outlook which leads to significantly better outcomes. I've seen it in my own husband who was diagnosed with glioblastoma in January. We were told 6 months and we spent most of that time in absolute despair. Well he just passed the 8 month mark and he's doing great. There are so many treatments down the track for brain cancer that are so promising. Even 5 years from now things could be very different. You need a medical team who is looking ahead to very long term management or even a cure for you. You DESERVE that. Do not accept what this doctor has told you. I predict you will feel so much better after your second opinion with the best doctor you can find. Sending much love and good wishes your way!
Sweetheart. I send you the biggest virtual hug. This is horrible and i cannot imagine the grief youre experiencing and trying to reconcile this but sending you love and hope you will find your way to enjoy your life experieince no matter how long or painful youre told it will be, find love and joy between the moments of pain. It takes an incredible amout of courage to be able to speak openly to the internet strangers and possibly to others just as afraid and grief stricken as yourself with news of terminal illness ...we all are terminal really ... just some get a time range others pass suddenly...you have been given a gift and curse .. My grandmother passed from brain cancer ...she had 6 months from diagnosis...back in 2001...she was gone in 2 months...medical science wasn't there yet..but she was older at 61. But it went fast...you have 10 ish wonderful years ahead...challenging but ...share and receive as much love now ...love is the most beautiful thing in life in my opinion...much love and strength to you and your family ❤

My friends dad has brain cancer and he got 6 months. That was 25 years ago he is still around. It really does happen. Doctors aren’t always right. You are amazing BTW.
I hope she sees this. There are many similar comments but none about brain cancer specifically, and I feel like brain cancer is in a league of its own compared to others so I think this comment is one of the most important in the whole section.
@@Sleepingwei my friend’s dad has several tumours. I’m not sure if they took some out I know they shrunk with radiotherapy. But he is alive and well for sure.
My husbands friend has a brain tumour. He's still alive after 20 years. I know he's in the minority ,with this type of tumour, But there is hope! You may well not grow old but, equally , may well have MUCH more time than you think. Grieve now, then get back up and FULLY LIVE EVERY SINGLE MOMENT YOU'RE GIVEN. Be blessed , beautiful girl
i know such a case, too (really! i am not lying!). they said he would die from a brain tumor (brain stem) in a year. after almost 15 years he is still alive. he cant work anymore, but he is fine. i know he loves gardening so i give him a plant as a present whenever a family member visits me. i am not sure but i think he undergoes some novel treatment now.
Don’t wait for your next doctor appointment - get going with a plan that has a chance. Do not be defeated!
I was given two years to live by a doctor when I was 43. I am 75 now! Still working full time and enjoying life, children, and my grandchildren!
doctors , weather and lawyer are kinda alike
Praise GOD! AMEN! 🎉
What country do you live in? My mom passed at 49 from glioma a couple years ago. After a year of diagnosis 😭
you have done enough for your society, why are you still working? collect your pension and enjoy the rest of your life please, dont overwork :(
@@Noodle-Ninja working part time gives me meaning. I am a doctor, and I love my patients! And my family! I love my life!! I am blessed!!
We discovered my wife's brain cancer, after a seizure, in November of 2004. She was 41. We were told she had around 6 years. She lived a wonderful life for 16 years, had 4 brain surgeries, over 60 MRIs, more radiation and chemo than anyone should have to endure. She never got off seizure meds, and her cognitive ability, speech, etc. was fine throughout the entire illness. She lived fully, loved fully, and only a few months before her downturn we rode jetskis in the ocean in Jamaica. Her death was not dramatic, and she was in zero pain. She passed peacefully on Monday morning, after visiting and eating lunch the prior Sunday. There are no absolutes. Don't give up hope. Medical science changes quickly, and you are young and strong. You can do this.
a traditional medicine formula could supply you extra biological energy to fight the brain cancer. Three ingredients: lamb, Angelica sinensis (当归，in Chinese store ),ginger.
This is such a positive and beautiful comment 😭
@@SophisticatedBob very comforting message... so thoughtful.... i hope Eireann sees this
i’m sending so much love, prayers and hugs your way❤ your wife will always be so so strong! that’s for sure ❤
@sophisticatedBob I’m so sorry you lost your treasured wife, I’m glad she lived life to the full right to the end.
I am on the same path and watching your videos have made me cry and laugh. I had 3 crainiotomies, radiotherapy and now only have BRAF inhibitor drugs. My life is counted in months now but I am still fighting. Keep going, never give up xx
stay strong brother
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
🙏🙏
I am a doctor and I can assure you we talk about statistics and generalities. I’ve seen patients pass months after this diagnosis. 10+ years is PLENTY of time for science to advance. Everything varies from person to person.
Also f him for wording it like that. Honesty without empathy is cruelty. Take things day by day. We send you all our strength and love ♥️
❤
@marianarias313 You are so beautiful, mindful, aware ("Honesty without empathy is cruelty."), kind, gracious, and supportive. I'm sure that Eireann will love this comment.
I hope she sees your comment. I thank God for doctors like you.
Please see dr.Bruzinski / spelling/
I teach medical students about bedside manner and I have to agree with @marianarias313 - this is not how you do this. He actually gave you some good news: you have more than a decade ahead of you and they have a plan for you to make it as long as possible. But the way he basically kept taking away these other hopeful opportunities and made you focus on the most miserable scenario is heartbreaking to hear. Like @mbprim said, there are weekly advances in cancer treatment and a decade is a long time for these advances to happen. So please, Éireann, keep up the hope, there are very sound arguments for it.
It’s been twelve years and what’s left of my glioma hasn’t grown at all. I’m considered a cancer survivor. There are other possibilities than the worst case. I have a cognitive impairment, and it’s really frustrating sometimes, but I’m alive. I have a bachelors degree that I got AFTER my surgery and I plan on getting my masters degree. I was given five years to live. Five. It’s been twelve. I’m 26. I’m married to the love of my life. I have a job that I love. There is hope. There is.
Incredible! Bless you!
Wow , that's amazing!!
Which country are you from ?
Are you even sure it was a glioma to begin with? Did they biopsy it?
God bless you, I’m in tears
I lost my son to this ❤
As a Nurse, I can honestly say if a doctor discourages you from getting a second or third opinion, that is a huge red flag that that doctor is not the one for you. Any doctor, who knows what they are really talking about, welcomes their patients to get a second opinion. Don't give up. A lot can happen in 10 years with research for any and all cancers. You can do this and live a long, happy life. Never count yourself out. Sending all my love and good wishes to you. ❤️
Totally agree. I hate when they think they know everything. Even if they are nice they’re only human. The more opinions the better❤
I'm not a nurse, but ALWAYS get a second opinion about life changing stuff. Even if it's obvious.
Amen to this!
Exactly, it won’t hurt, can only help
Totally agree due to past experience in Ireland
Your energy and honesty is amazing. Thank you for the vulnerable share here - your positive spirit very much shines through. I'm glad the algorithm showed me this tonight. I'm wishing you and Devin the best.
🙌🙌🙌
What a sweet, sweet, generous, thoughtful "gesture"!
I'm wondering if she even accepted it...she's such a humble, real soul.
Just had to comment. Haven't EVER seen something like this before:)
🙏🙏🙏🙌
Dearest Éireann, I can't tell you how distressing I found it to watch this video and see you so upset and in despair and offered so little hope by the doctors in Ireland. I've read a number of comments already left before posting this and like everyone else, I think you should get a second opinion. Doctors can often be wrong. The ones in our village in North Wales were wrong telling my wife the "good news" that her malignant melanoma (the worst skin cancer you can get) was nothing to worry about and not worth removing. She nearly died as a result and Soph and Thomas nearly lost their mother. Thank God, she is still with us five years later. I wish I could say something positive to you that could change things - we all do. But I just can't right now. I will say this - I admire you more than ever (if that's possible) - even in the depths of your grief and despair you're helping inspire the rest of us to live our lives to the full and not to wait for a reality check slapping us in the face. Thank you for making me - and many others - better people than we would otherwise be. I hope you can put my donation to a worthy cause - and that worthy cause is YOU and Devin. Enjoy your time together and I so hope it is a great deal longer than 11 years. The world needs special people like you. With love and best wishes Rob (oh, and daughter Soph of course!) xx
PS: I've just made a donation to Brain Tumour Research. I hope it will help further this worthy cause. (As for my donation to you - just spend it on pizza, Guinness or whatever gives you comfort!) Tc xx
Well said.
Bless you Rob for your kindness.
Rob, you absolute gem. Blessings to you and your family.
@@robcodsallGuinness or any alcohol taking is very bad for her, she needs to eat healthy and drink healthy, please do not encourage a vulnerable person to do more harm to herself, she has a beautiful soul, we pray for her to recover and get better soon.
As a pediatric physician, my opinion is that a physician who uses the word 'never' is an automatic indication for a second opinion. Even if your oncologist is correct, "never" is not a medical term. If you ask a doctor for a second opinion and they say "you probably shouldn't," and it's a life changing diagnosis, GO GET ANOTHER OPINION. It's worth the time, embarrassment, and money. When I finished medical training, I buried patients with the same diagnosis that is curable today and it's been less than a decade. Thanks.
That rubbed me the wrong way too. Physicians should be the first to acknowledge that science is progressing very first these days. Never say never
Totally. I fear this consultant had his own battles going on in the pressured NHS. Such doom and gloom is not going to come from every physician. Far from it.
💯💯💯
Thank you doctor. You are a true credit to the medical profession.
keep in mind she can also be exaggerating this. its understandably very difficult, but it could be her own words in her head.
I am a survivor of a brain giloma, located inside of my brain stem. I was diagnosed when I was five, I am now 26. The doctors told my mother I was going to either be blind, deaf, or mute, or a combination, I am none of those things. I am terribly sorry you are experiencing this, no one should experience this, but, the bell hasnt rung yet. You can survive this, do not give up hope. I had a less than 00.1% chance of even surviving, and here I am today, typing to you. Just keep fighting no matter what.
It is good to see powerful people like you sir...Good luck champion
Powerful ❤
God bless you ❤😊
uve been very lucky
That's the spirit champ!
I work at a pharmacy and one of my patients told me, he had pancreatic cancer and there isn't much time left.
I don't know how, but this person is still alive and kicking. It was ten years ago he told me about his illness.
Don't lose hope 🍀💚
Either he is an outlier with adenocarcinoma, or he has a neuroendocrine version of pancreatic cancer.
@pdrey100 Or it was God...he's alive, you know, and performing miracles ALL THE TIME! Including healing cancer that's a certain death sentence. I personally know 2 people that have experienced this. It's a beautiful thing and would be such a shame if someone refused to see it as part of life.
To open hearts❣️🥂
Hi Éireann, I'm just seeing you for the first time, hearing about your diagnosis, and am wanting to express certainly the sadness I feel about what you're going through but also profound admiration. Your videos, those positive and not, are helping everyone, not just people with illnesses, by showing your incredible grace with regard to the human condition. None of us gets out of here alive, and you're reminding us what matters most. I'm a neuroscientist researcher and clinician and can also tell you that scientific breakthroughs sometimes come with unexpected speed. Don't give too much credence to doctors claiming specific time tables or using words like "never." Sending love, admiration, and buckets of hope from Carlsbad, California.
@@motoroverflow you’re donating 100’dollars and you don’t even know if her story is true or false . Maybe she’s a scam artist . You don’t know that , it happens . You donated money to a person you know nothing about if her story is true or false . I hope you can’t sleep tonight

@@Ime_Prezime well it happens that scam artists fake an illness just to receive donations . I’m not saying this is the case with her but people needs to be more careful donating to someone they know know nothing about , her background . I would investigate scrutinise her before I even consider donating to her cause .
My Aunt has stage 4 cancer and the doctors told her she would be dead in 6 months, but now it's been 18 years later and she's still alive. Don't take 11 years as a maximum lifespan, take it as a minimum. I will live at least 11 years at the minimum. - As for the cognitive decline, as you age you get mentally slower regardless. I'm 41 now and I do not feel as sharp as I was in my 20s. Your case is more extreme of course, but naturally you would get less sharp mentally anyway, just think of it as a little worse than average. Everyone has to deal with bad things in their lives and this is your random bad life modifier. It is also possible more cures come out for cancer within the next decade that could cure yours. I'm hoping for the best for you!
all cancer sux, but you really cant compare them to brain cancer, you skull is X size no extra space, it kinda has an important job in keeping you alive. it also affects your everything, that includes mood / emotions / feelings physically. its one thing to feel emotions due to chemical imbalances u can balance, but physical things are permanent.
Diet has a MASSIVE impact on cognitive decline. Do NOT eat any processed foods, cut out all wheat, grains and seed oils. Cut out the starch, carbs and sugar as cancer loves glucose. Eat a very low carb zero sugar Keto diet or even better a full on carnivore diet. You will reverse many of the lifestyle medical conditions you have collected. Yes you can. Improve cognition and prevent dementia.
Over 700 videos on this top YT channel of people giving their first hand experiences of doing just this by going full carnivore diet.

My friend was diagnosed with leukemia at 17 and doctors told him he would never live more than 5 years. He's now 42, has a beautiful kid and is a great father. Meanwhile, another friend died young and healthy while sleeping, his heart just stopped for no reason. Life is like this, and no one knows what the future holds. Live your life like you're going to live forever and enjoy every moment of it. Regards from Portugal.
Omg your friend that passed away during his sleep took by any chance the c19 💉?
@@pololikikuju no, this was long before covid
Big big facts 💯
me me me me lookm at me me me me
@pololikikuju
Really? Thats where you go with this?
Guess what. I had a friend suddenly pass from a heart attack at 20. He was healthy, no known issues whatsoever. His heart suddenly failed.
It was 2000.
Sometimes that stuff unfortunately just happens. And when youre working with a huge population like "everyone of a country" theres going to be unexpected heart related deaths of otherwise healthy young people. Because those things just happen. But since covid happened, people want to tie every out of nowhere severe medical event to that vaccine.
I have a 7-month-old daughter, and this absolutely moved me to tears. I am so sorry to see what you are going through, and I wish I could take your pain away. But I am so glad/proud to see you have the ability to maintain hope.
I know it probably doesn’t help, but 11 years is a long time for medical advances. I would always push for a second opinion. You’re in my thoughts ❤
I hope they find a cure. I know professors have contacts with each other about this sort of cancers. Erasmus UMC Rotterdam is specialized in braintumors. In Holland research for braincancer is also minimal. Lost my sister to a very agressive form; glioblastoma multiforma
I work within child cancer research and there is so much going on right now within the research field! I don't know if you, for example, have heard of Whole Genome Sequencing? Where I work we have a new centre for real high tech stuff. And I heard that a boy with Pontine glioma recently was cured from it! And it earlier was incurable. Just wanted to share this! ❤️
Please please please please get a second opinion, and maybe a third. Shame on that oncologist for saying those things to you and intentionally telling you there is no hope. They absolutely don't know that - it is all statistics, and odds, and nothing is for sure (as many others have already commented). I recommend reading the book "The Expectation Effect" by David Robson. It is an outstanding book that is completely based in science. There is enormous power in belief - use it.
Absolutely get a second opinion! Don’t let anyone tell you not to get one. Do everything in your power to find answers. You owe that to yourself
Cancer is a billion dollar industry, a cure means the end of big business, that’s why they shoot people down that cure themselves naturally (Gerson Therapy) , look at how the mainstream media is treating Elle MacPherson for completely curing breast cancer naturally!
My husband was diagnosed with brain cancer in 2004 and given 3-6 months. He celebrated his 20th alive-iversary on September 29th! Doctors cannot predict your outcome because your spirit matters! Also KEEP advocating for yourself and getting more opinions that is what we have done and we keep finding answers that help us keep going and finding hope. My husband was told the past 4years his tumor that recurred in 2021 was inoperable by countless doctors and yet we kept asking and searching for answers and found an amazing surgeon who felt confident he could get most of the tumor out and September 12th they removed ALL of the tumor!! There is hope and I hope my husbands story can find you that hope! We are sending you deep deep love and healing!
Thank you for telling this sweet girl there is always an exemption. Always . 🥰
can you please tell mein the name of the doctor? my girlfriend has a braintumor and doctors are telling her something simillar
@@kristinerwalsh always always and our mind is more important than we realize! My husband has never thought he was gonna die from this and holds that spirit so strong in him. He doesn’t say he is fighting cancer because he isn’t just simply part of this life journey he is on
@@liberta12 yes it’s Dr. Kris Smith at Barrow in Phoenix Arizona he is AMAZING! They have a second opinion program where you can submit all your records and they review your case for only $100 and then send a detailed second opinion. You can do it from anywhere in the world and the surgeon is truly something beyond
"Don't wait for a "slap across the face of reality" to appreciate life" is a powerful message. Sadly, only few will really get it.
Turn to jesus Christ you will not be scared to die and tot be scared of any cancer and stuff like that
It’s too late for me. The damage is already done and the joy is gone.
I got a simple slap on my eyes and my immune system…and even though it’s common when it shouldn’t be..the way cancer is….it made me unable to bear a lot of shallow struggles..a lot of political medical and social nonsense….the external world doesn’t function on the concept of life’s fragility…all people spend 50 years between education and work as if we all have the same time…which we don’t…
They system is robotic until you face death
You’re incredibly strong. Sending you all my love and support.
To be honest, only from the way you previously spoke about your cancer, I figured you prognostic was under 2 years. But girl, 11 years is so hopeful!! Medecine advances so much in a decade! So many things could change! Also what you got told at your appointment was only the opinion/knowledge of one men. I feel very hopeful for you, hope you have better days ahead❤
🙏❤❤❤❤❤🙏
Very true! They are definite miracles that can take place with an 11 years let alone two!
Don’t listen to the doctors because my sister was told the very same thing and she lived a good life of 40 more years. She worked , lived her life, enjoyed friends. Medicine is always advancing and I strongly believe there will be a breakthrough for you. Most importantly, acknowledge and cling to God.
Very well said.
Take one day at a time. Please, for your own sake, stop getting your information from Tik Tok and UA-cam! Rely on medical health professionals. Do you know how to meditate or have a faith where you can find your center?
There are no adequate words.. I wish you endurance and lots of strength! heartbreaking

I was diagnosed with cancer when I was 29. I am a cancer survivor as I'm now a 64 year old granny. When I was first diagnosed and told I had the dreaded big C I realised that you can change most things in your life if you wanted to, but a cancer diagnosis is something that can't be changed. I pray that you find a place of peace and acceptance to get you through the roller coaster of emotions you are going through. Never, ever, give up as no matter what the doctors may tell you God may have other ideas. Eireann we're sending you strength and love and the biggest virtual hug that UA-cam can send you. Keep smiling you beautiful lady. 💞
🙏🙏🙏
11 years is quite long and medicine will get better. You should always stay optimistic ❤.
Sometimes you will worry and its normal, but meditate, do deep breathing exerxises, and eat brain foods.
Keep a low sugar Diet, because cancer needs glucose from sugar to grow and spread.
Cancer can be starved if we eat alot of vegetables and organic grass fed meats, nuts, sardines, salmon, high in omega 3, and free range organic chicken eggs.
Eat fruits high in vitamin C but low on the glycemic index such as watrmelon, blueberries, black berries, apples, kiwi and others.
Fruits helps to power our immune system, powers your líver and kidney to detoxify the blood and allow the body to heal, and take in more oxygen.
Replace sugars with organic honey, stevia, and other sweetners that helps the body to stay in a cáncer destroying state but use these with moderation.
I am hopeful for you and your loving family. Cáncer affects the entire family. So you all be strong for each other.
GOD BLESS.
My husband’s oncologist always told us that they can only tell us what Science says. Everyone is different and all one can do is work on getting stronger. You and Devin are a really special couple and I think you should have the beautiful wedding that you were planning. What a special memory that you and all the family and friends will have. Don’t apologise for upsetting us. I would love to be able to just put my arms around you and give you a big hug. You’re really special. I’m sorry this has happened to you. My first thought when you started was to get a second opinion. This man differs so much from what you were previously told so find somebody else to give another opinion and then you can settle what is probably right. Lots of love to you. Make sure that you make your time really worthwhile and happy. It’s very hard but you can do it. I speak from experience 💕

@@sparkdrive2900 I was just trying to spread some kindness here. My mum died from a cancer and we tried to keep the hope until the end. It really helped enjoying the little moments of life.
@@fiox7084 kindness is subjective. Pls donate money if you are capable.
@@sparkdrive2900 You can also say it because of the rapid advancement in AI. Next 11 years will be much more rapid acvancement than previous 11 years.
Correct! Technology is moving so so fast!
Life is so randomly, painfully, shockingly, and frustratingly unfair.
This is true
It’s why I seriously envy anyone who can believe in a higher power. How? How could anyone believe with so much needless random cruelty and suffering
that's why people try to make their neighbour's life miserable all the time. Practising fault finding in order to find any excuse to treat others like if they were rubbish with no basic rights. And everything starts in the mind:
"God saw that human evil was out of control. People thought evil, imagined evil-evil, evil, evil from morning to night. God was sorry that he had made the human race in the first place; it broke his heart. God said, “I’ll get rid of my ruined creation...".
@@MrGittz one guy told me one time: "people is cruel". It's people who inflict pain on others. The commands from the high power are clear:
"So then, in everything treat others the same way you want them to treat you,..."
but people do exactly the very opposite.
it's not about a belief, it's about will (unfair judgment) and behaviour:
"By this gospel you are saved, if you hold firmly to the word I preached to you. Otherwise, you have believed in vain."
11 years of survival is not that bad though....... comparing it with the much more common heart failure (which can come a shitload, really, a SHITLOAD of different reasons at ANY age basically, and in the USofA i think 5% of all people living there have it in some degree) where the average survival is just shy of 4,5 years, and that disease have really-really nasty'n horrible "flareups", when you can't breathe, can't leave bed because your heart muscle is so weak you feel like you're having a heart stoppage (cardiac arrest) constantly, and you obviously can't do anything "fun" because it puts too much strain on your heart. And those flareups keep on going for months on end, and then you get like 2-3 better months, then hell comes back, only every consecutive time ever more viciously....... the one lucky thing is that there are quite potent medications to treat it nowadays, like loop diuretics and amiodarone...... but still, it is a horrible way to go, if you manage to keep lucidity near the end.
Dear Éireann, never lose hope. You are a brave and positive woman. God bless you. ❤🙏🏻 Wishing you all the best-you’re going to be okay. Greetings from Brazil! 🤍
Dont ever be discouraged to get a 2nd opinion, or a 3rd or a 4th. Always always advocate for yourself ❤
I don’t know if you can but research oncologist and get that 2nd opinion. No one should say that whether they are confident or not. Call them get a referral or call the oncologist anywhere you want and get an appointment. I’m a nurse in the US and work with high risk pregnancies patients or babies. Our patients ask for 2nd opinion we get it that day. We work to make it happen because sometimes other Doctors have different experiences and outcomes. I can honestly say that the world of genetics and cancer research has exploded in the past few years. Never give up hope. New discoveries come out all the time. New research studies as well. You are a beautiful young woman and have an amazing family and partner. Let them love on you and on those foggy days give yourself grace and realize this doesn’t define you. The seizure medication he has no idea if you will need it long term. He has given you statistics and worst case scenario. Sometimes Doctors do that but in any set of medical conditions there are those that defy the odds. Put in the research and find a credible oncologist that specializes in this type of cancer and see them. Easily some of our patients we could say you will die before giving birth. We have cancers, heart conditions that are bad, kidney failure, transplants and some with multiple other things. Some make it and live a good while. One thing about medicine is it isn’t always black and white. Cry if you need to actually it releases endorphins and can help. See a therapist you like and who is supportive of you. Tell them your goals they can help you handle what is going on giving you a safe place to cry, be angry or however you feel without judgement. They should if not get a new one. I certainly will keep you, your family, your friends, and the medical team better in my prayers, or send out good energy to the world.
I also have a brain tumor and ignored your warnings. What you said in the end about enjoying every moment is so incredibly true. That is what keeps me going is being so grateful for the time I have with my family.

In korea. 15 years old girl that doctors gave up everything had the terminal brain cancer. It was impossible for her to use chemical or radiation anything..Her mother decided not to wait die . But she gave 3600mg mebendazole 30ml sesami seed oil 400mg cimetine for 5 days in a week. 48-60mg ivermectin a day for 2 days and everyday 4mg naltrexone 5000iu vitamind 800mg phterostilbene 2000mg quercetin 400mg egcg 1000mg metformin 1000mg omega3 1000mg meriva curcumin 1200mg tudca and before going to bed her mother gave 100mg melatonin (to 300mg sometimes) vitamin b complex.
15 years old girl cured the terminal brain cancer within 5 months. Now she is healthy. No cancer cells in her body at all
In usa. Instead of mebendazole. You can take fenbendazole. It is same medicine.
while getting the appropriate medical treatments, the best thing to do is to prepare the soul for the next stage by making peace with others and repenting of sins. i'll pray for you.
Oh, sweetie. I'm old but I've had a lot of cancer. Right now your perspective is so fresh and raw with the news of the disease process. Try not to panic. You have time to adapt and accept the diagnosis. There is a place of peace in your future, regardless the outcome.
Such powerful insight, this truly moved me. Thank you

In korea. 15 years old girl that doctors gave up everything had the terminal brain cancer. It was impossible for her to use chemical or radiation anything..Her mother decided not to wait die . But she gave 3600mg mebendazole 30ml sesami seed oil 400mg cimetine for 5 days in a week. 48-60mg ivermectin a day for 2 days and everyday 4mg naltrexone 5000iu vitamind 800mg phterostilbene 2000mg quercetin 400mg egcg 1000mg metformin 1000mg omega3 1000mg meriva curcumin 1200mg tudca and before going to bed her mother gave 100mg melatonin (to 300mg sometimes) vitamin b complex.
15 years old girl cured the terminal brain cancer within 5 months. Now she is healthy. No cancer cells in her body at all
In usa. Instead of mebendazole. You can take fenbendazole. It is same medicine.
I remember when Magic Johnson was diagnosed with HIV back in the 90s. At that time it was a death sentence and Nobody would have believed he would still be around here in 2024 and healthy. In the medical world, eleven years is a long time and there is every reason to have hope.
I remember that, too. My first thought was "He's gonna die".
Yes, I remember too. It wasn't "if" he would die, it was how soon. Now HIV is considered a condition that can be managed well and people lead full healthy lives.
Too different conditions that can't be even compared. Im medical student btw.

I’m a nurse and while I believe in honesty, NO ONE HUMAN BEING KNOWS WHEN OUR TIME IS UP. Find another doctor for a second opinion.

11 years is a lot of time, 4000 days and 4000 nights, and you are surrounded by people who'll love you each and every day.
isn't that much of a time as you think it is , time flys by 😭 but its better then nothing. Some people only get few months. It is still a guess by the doctor , as she might live abit longer then that or less :( ( I hope she lives longer but the reailty is not even the doctor knows for sure, it is an educated guess. It isnt set in stone.

As a medical student specializing in oncology, I can assure you that cancer advancements are happening weekly. I pray that in a few years, there will be a safe and effective treatment for you.

I would never stick with a doctor that made me feel hopeless. It is very important to remain hopeful and to have somebody caring for you that actually...cares.
EDITED TO ADD: Please look up Stephanie Seban. She got diagnosed with terminal breast cancer in June 2011 and is thriving today even though the chances that she had of making it even 5 years were very low. She has many great philosophies related to this.
Stick with honest doctors, not fairytale ones.
@winifix you can balance a mixture of empathy and realisticness though
They can just tell them the statistics, because they truly don't know how long she has. 11 years is actually too long for brain cancer. @@winifix
@@winifix There are plenty of honest doctors who also don't pretend they have a crystal ball to say exactly the number of years somebody will live and that there is no hope of any medical advances in that period.
@@winifix An honest doctor would not pretend to know how long you have left. As a medical student, I have been told that the idea of doctors "predicting" the number of years a patient has 'left' is practically never something that should be brought up in an appointment; because disregarding the impossibility of giving a 100% guarantee, it also simply serves no positive purpose whatsoever.
My aunt was diagnosed with breast cancer in her 50's and she made a complete recovery and has been cancer free for years, and her morale throughout the entire treatment protocol was shockingly positive. Stress has been shown to be associated with an uncountable number of diseases, and it's foolish and dishonest to claim that it plays no role in the recovery process of any patient with practically any disease.
Also, I just read your comment from a few hours ago on this channel, and I'm sorry to hear about your diagnosis and the difficulty you've had to go through with that surgery, and having to abide by less "surgical" and tangible treatment regimens since you can't have a third surgery. The world has changed so much in the last 20 years, as has medicine, and treatment methods have grown to be much more effective and with less side effects than how they used to be. I will not ask or encourage you blindly to "Oh be positive, have hope! Live, laugh, love!" etc etc, if it's against what you're feeling right now and would only feel worse to hear that - it's important to feel your feelings and there's no better feelings to feel, the bad and the good. But what I hope is that you try to trust the process, advocate for your own health, and harbor no feelings of guilt nor resentment towards yourself. And I wish you nothing but the best on your journey towards improvement, recovery, and hopefully being tumor-free once again.
I was so moved by this video. Miracles do happen so I will add you to my prayer list. You're so brave and there's no shame in how you feel and certainly not in crying. God bless and keep you 🙏
Seeing you crying like this honestly broke my heart. It hurts knowing that someone as amazing as you is facing this. I wish I could take away the pain you're feeling. I hope that you, Devin and your family find the happiness and peace you all deserve, and that the challenges you're facing right now bring you closer.

So sorry to hear the update Eirean. What a cruel horrible disease.
Thank you
Eireann, thank you for sharing your struggles and humility. Let me share with you that my mother fought cancer for 38 years. Her shear will to live, her mindset, I am sure, is what gave her strength to overcome the odds. In fact, she was not supposed to live much beyond my birth! However, she got to see me, her youngest, graduate as high school valedictorian. She was able to be there when I accepted my Bachelors in Engineering and then my Masters. She was there when I got married and was able to see the home I built. Fast-forward, the initial cancer that kicked off in her body all those years ago is now readily treated and has a high survival rate. Point being, a lot can change in these times! Strength be with you!
Thank You. Its so incredobly hard to talk about this, but I think its invaluable. Before I was diagnosed with me/cfs, I thought about all the possible ways I could be dying, and the best word to describe that feeling is "painful". I actually came across your channel because of my frantic search to find out wtf is wrong with me. Feeling like youre in the looming shadow of deaths door brings a loneliness like no other, and it really does put everything into perspective.
I think this video will remind ppl to do all that they can to live the life they want to live with whatever time they've got left, and thats beautiful. Life expectancy goes down slightly with me/cfs, but even a full lifetime can be wasted if youre not cognizant of death. So again, thank you.
I wish you didn't have to be strong, but please keep being strong, and be selfish, and do what you love with the people you love, no matter what any doctor or study says.
It is so heartbreaking to hear you apologize for potentially making us upset because you're making a sad video. Even then you're thinking about others. I'm sending you the biggest hug in the world and I am not giving up hope ♥
My aunt lived with brain cancer for 25 years after being told she had less than 6 months to live. Not everyone is so lucky but it does happen. And as others have said, medicine knows so much more now than it did then and the same will be true in the years to come.

Oncologists are clueless when it comes to cancer. These cancer doctors keep doing the same old useless and dangerous cancer treatments over and over again expecting a different outcome.
Now go listen to Dr. Thomas Seyfried he has lots of video's on UA-cam.
my great grandmother also lived 30 years after being told the same
When doctors tell patients they only have a few months to live, is it because they physically LOOK like they will die in the near future??.. I ask because my mom was just put on hospice care 😢. She has ovarian cancer and pancreatic cancer. The chemo was initially working, then they switched it to another chemo drug and health has declined a lot. Now they’re telling us there’s nothing else they can do and to just let her die.
@ oh lord right now i majorly and urgently lift up covergirl06 her mother and all according to your perfect will I just ask in Jesus Name that you would just totally rebuke curse and cast out this evil spirit of Cancer in the name of the father son and holy spirit and according to your perfect will please deliver us an awesome cancer free report lord that’s my prayer and that’s my hope!!!!!! oh God much despite this situation still i know your hand is on this sister’s mom and you will see her throughout thick and thin also i majorly pray and i just ask that you please just wrap your warm and comforting arms around this mom and no matter what might transpire may unimaginable perfect rest peace grace mercy satisfaction and comfort be totally multiplied and poured out on her to much much help her to pull through this ordeal and by all means please help this family’s faith to grow stronger each and everyday and help them not to in any way get discouraged but to totally trust your will and lean on the everlasting arms of Jesus each and everyday to the fullest extent and i still believe you’re the God of miracles and the impossible so finally my major prayer is that you please break the unbreakable move the immovable and from the impossible we’ll see a miracle God we believe for it in the name of the father son and holy spirit lord that’s my prayer and that’s my hope amen!!!!!
My husband was diagnosed 15 years ago with a brain tumour and the median lifespan was 11 years. After ten years he did the radiation chemo combo for 18 mos and his tumour has been stable since the end of his treatment. We also were just told that he may now qualify for new trials after all these years new research and new trials have starts. Every tumour is different and acts differently in a different body and there is no way that they know what your tumours is going to do exactly. Do not give up hope because anything is possible especially since they don’t know exactly your tumours type… live each day with joy as you do and stay out of the rabbit holes! You’re thought of often! ❤
Wow!! That's amazing
What grade did he have ?
He did radiation for 18 months? Have you seen any cognitive decline after that? The brain usually will start to severely degrade after radiation therapy.
Turn to jesus Christ you will not be scared to die and tot be scared of any cancer and stuff like that
@@lindaanderson1921 It was grade 2 with some grade 3 cells right before treatment
@@yuleassagai1684 sorry I guess I should edit to say that he did 6weeks of combined radiation and chemo and then the chemo continued for another 17 months. He will not be able to have radiation again in that area but chemo could be an options again. He did have severe fatigue for about a year after radiation. He did however have a small stroke because the radiation did cause some premature aging of his blood vessels and while that was a risk of radiation. I feel his high blood pressure, which was hereditary was a major contribution to the stroke. He recovered quite well from his stroke. We are very lucky.
Praying for you Erin. Thank you for sharing and bringing awareness to the lack of research and funding. We need to increase awareness, and research.
I work in hospice and I’ve seen many people with many different diseases decline and eventually pass away. My last brain tumor/brain cancer patient outlived his prognosis date by almost 15 years. He died peacefully in his sleep and was lucid until 2 hours before he passed. He had seizures and those were admittedly difficult for him, but he was surrounded by love and support and that made everything bearable for him.
I hope that you have a full and abundant life no matter how much time you have left (which I hope is many many years!) ❤️

15 years of laying in bed while having the occasional grand mal? Who is it that that information's supposed to make feel better?
I wish you very well though, not many people are capable of doing a hospice nursing job.
@@istvancsap3513 he was not bed bound for 15 years nor did he have grand mal seizures. He was active and independent, living on his own without assistance for those 15 years. Only on hospice the last month of his life and even then was able to live alone until his final 3 days. He had what are called absence seizures which didn’t involve any shaking in his body, only brief moments of what looked like staring into space. His seizures weren’t daily or even weekly in most cases. Hospice doesn’t always look like what you think it looks like, which was my point exactly! So thank you for your comment which allowed me to reinforce that his death and decline was all around peaceful and something I was hoping to explain to provide comfort instead of fear.
@@istvancsap3513 I think you misunderstood. She did not say the patient was in bed for 15 years, only that they lived for 15 years after the diagnosis. Many brain tumor patients can have a good quality of life until rather shortly before death.
@@heinzerhardt7047 i think i was capable to understand what she wrote perfectly fine, Herr Erhardt :)
Dear Éireann,
My brother is going through treatment for a Astrocytoma grade 2/3, that's also a brain tumor, for the second time. The first time was 13 years ago, and back then, they gave him 2 years to live. But he is still here, fighting and LIVING. He has 3 kids and wants to see them grow. The one thing that we all learned with this battle is that no one never knows anything for sure. Don't give up.

Hi Eireann.
It seems to me a big part of your life, is to give others strength and find their own courage in such an extremely trying time.
In my life I have seen much. The one thing that has always stood out was the people I’ve know who go through such a devastating, heartbreaking time; they’re the best people I know, by far. It’s just a fact, this always happens. You’re definitely no exception!
I think getting a second opinion should have been something your doctor recommended. I’m glad you’re going to do that.
If you want to take your family out somewhere special, here’s a “wee” ❤😊bit towards that; or whatever you want of course.

A big hug from New Zealand from a terminal cancer patient in New Zealand - somehow you and I are on the wrong train and it's a bumpy ride,but take some comfort knowing you're not on that ride alone. Give yourself permission to spend some time grieving about this - but also learn to let go of what you can't hold onto anymore. If you can master that, you'll squeeze the most living you can out of life while you've got it.
Sorry to hear about your situation 😢 But 11 years is a long time! As a pharmacist, i can reassure you that even though research for brain cancer has been slow, there have been promising developments recently, such as the use of the polio virus which is now in Phase 2 of clinical trials!! So there is definitely a chance that new and effective treatments may emerge while you're still around. All hope isn't lost and I wish you the best! ❤
Also you should definitely get a second opinion.

RECOMEND A DOCTOR WITH EXPERIENCE IN BIO TERRORISM
Doctors have a responsibility to tell the truth to their best of their current knowledge. They can ofc sugarcoat it with optimism about the possible progress of science but fast and clearcut progress is not a given. They were very optimistic in the 80s about cancer being totally curable in the 2000s and did not happen. Unfortunately progress in science is absolutely unpredictable and not linear.

I have a friend who had lung cancer, which metastasized to her brain- 8 tumors. It was long enough ago that she was in a clinical trial of Opdivo. It worked for her. She's been cancer free since BUT she does take anti-seizure meds daily. The point is, she was in the trial as a last resort yet she's still here. She's outlived every doctor's estimate of her life expectancy. And the best advocate for your health is YOU. If you feel like you need another opinion, right for it. You know your body better than anyone.

Medicine is going to make a huge step forward in the next 10-15 years. Never lose hope!
I heard multiple times that the cure for cancer was discovered by many scientists but those scientists die “ from natural causes” and the reason why they never let it happen because pharmaceutical companies are making wealth off of cancer drugs , another proof is that only specific people get access to the cure of cancer such as princess Kate , she got healed from cancer REALLY fast .

You are so authentic, beautiful, and kind and I can tell all that without even having met you in person. Don’t ever change. Don’t let cancer change who you are. It does not define you and if you don’t let it define your life it can’t really take your life. You are meant to be here for a long time 💛
I have such a lump in my throat watching you talk so honestly because you say the things everyone thinks. I can't imagine how you are feeling. I'm so sorry you have to go through this. If you believe in prayer, I'm praying for you and thinking of you and your family
Shame on that doctor. Positive attitude is one of the best remedies, he took that from you! Be strong, get another or many more opinions and like so many have said don’t give up. You have many people praying for you. You are a beautiful, smart young woman with a wonderful man who loves you, let that bring joy to you and be positive and get more opinions, prove him wrong.
Definitely get a 2nd, 3rd, 4th opinion, as many as it takes. Everyone's body is different. No doctor can be absolutely sure what anyones outcome is goin to be or be certain how much time someone has left. I've read so many comments on your channel and the proof is right there. Keep fighting precious angel. You got this. God bless you🙏
Eireann, I am absolutely devastated and heartbroken to see your grief and hear what you were told. I have a low grade glioma too, just had my first surgery in august of this year. I’m 34, I have a 5 month old son and an amazing supportive husband.
I just want you to know I see you, I feel your pain and understand the devastation to face that reality living to 80 just isn’t in the cards for us.
I empathize with how frustrating it can be to hear people constantly be like, “but you’re going to be the special miracle case who beats this!”, when you know the reality of the disease. It’s good to be positive but sometimes you just need to cry and be angry that this happened to you. Sometimes the stories of “I know so-and-so who had a brain tumor and they’re fine!” are not helpful, especially when you are in a pit of despair.
People don’t know what to say so the impulse is to try and make u feel better by being positive. But I always say if words could fix the problem I wouldn’t have brain cancer.
Just want you to know I’m following your journey in solidarity and hoping you will continue to spend your time making memories with those you love for as long as possible.
With love from Canada ❤️
Ps. Please get that second opinion. Consider going to the USA to a leading hospital like Mayo or MD Anderson for a consultation. Dr. Bendok at Mayo Arizona is awesome, was the best $600 USD I ever spent to get some peace of mind.
I am so sorry that you are going through this as well. I'm sure that your words of solidarity will be appreciated. All the best to you and your family!
@@Bevie2003 thank you so much 🙏
Aww bless u stey strong .keep going .keep the faithx❤❤❤
Good god you are a strong human being. I cannot express how you've influenced my perspective and appreciation for what I have. I hope to face my strife and mortality with as much grace as you. All the best wishes, and thank you❤️
Hey Eireann, I was diagnosed with Anaplastic Astrocytoma, not a great brain cancer to have, at age 19, was told it was especially aggressive and my chances past a year were 21% - I’m 31 now and have been cancer free for 9 years.
You don’t know what your genes have got it in them to fight this challenge you’ve been presented with - but you sure as hell need to give them all the energy they need, but remember, cellular energy is derived from your general hormonal chemistry as well as your food and nutrient intake, so whilst many around you will fuss over your physical health, remember that your emotional health needs all the strength it can get too.
As I always say, fixing a dent in your car needs pushing from the inside too, as does a dent in your life.

I was diagnosed with brain cancer 9 years ago, diffused astrocytoma, and your video sounds exactly how I felt after meeting with my doctor. I know what you are going through, and I believe you will come out stronger. Don't allow the negative energy to consume your thoughts. Make plans and live your life. Don't allow fear to guide you. The amazing thing about life is that you get to choose how you want to feel and react. ❤
Sweet girl, I’m so sorry. Definitely push for that second opinion and even third and fourth if necessary. Even with the underfunding for brain cancer, I don’t agree with him that there’s no point because nothing will change in ten years. That’s ridiculous and very unfair of him to say that. I wish there was something I could say to comfort you, but I know there isn’t. I am so glad you have such wonderful support around you. It’s important to allow yourself the bad days to feel it all - you’re literally grieving the life you thought you’d have and unless they’ve been through it, people can’t understand. I don’t know if it’s something you’ve considered but when you’re ready I highly recommend finding a counsellor with experience of young people with cancer. It helped me so so much. Sending you all the love and a huge hug. 💖💖💖
Honestly an insane thing to say on his part, they are literally working on targeted therapies for brain cancer right now that will be available in the next 5 years or so. Also the FDA just approved a new drug called Vorastinib in August that targets tumors with specific mutations (unfortunately not the BRAF mutation she has, but still there is progress being made)
@@ruthginger1023 Exactly! It’s been twelve years since my diagnosis (different type of cancer) and the treatments now are very different and more tailored than they were then. Advancements are being made all the time and for any doctor to say what he said is not ok.
My son was misdiagnosed and told he would not live to be 10 years old.
Now he is 13 and he is too sweet and too good, he has epilepsy, he loves animals, he is interested in the meaning of life and helping others. I wish you a lot of strength and don't believe everything they say, miracles happen every day. 🍀🙏🍀
So sweet.
No offence but how is that relevant here.
@@snowpz exactly
Everyone has their own story, sometimes you're lucky, sometimes you're not.
@@grant342 seems like people just want to spread their story sometimes 😕
I had a different type of cancer and survided but watching your video made me cry only in the way when I had cancer. It feels like you cry so much that your eyelids could turn inside out.... Anyway, I hope you make it. Even if you don't, squeeze as much life as you can out of the days that you have left. Some people live till they're 80 and just coast through life, not really achieving or doing anything. Just do what you really want to do. Also, it's not about achieving. Just do it. Just do what you want and don't try to please anyone but yourself. That can make you ill. One pure moment of happiness can be better than a whole life of nothingness. Don't waste your energy and emotions on sadness. xx
Don't give up hope. No one really knows where they will be in the future. I admire your strength 🙂
It's not negative to feel, Eireann. You have to grieve and process to make right with it - and you will, I promise. You can pour out your emotions anytime - I'll cry along with you each time. Sending love and hugs as always.🤍🫂
I’m so sorry! I’ve been following your story for a long time now.. Life is just so fragile. My husband has cystic fibrosis and was told he most likely would only live to be 10 years of age. He’s now turning 41. Keep that in the back of your mind and try to remember there is always hope. I’m thinking of you and praying for you sweet, Eireann. 💛
Have faith and hope, I’m praying for your beautiful soul. Thanks for sharing such news.
This video just absolutely breaks my heart. No one deserves cancer, especially you! God bless you!!!
You're very brave to post this video. Your channel is going to help so many people for many many years.
Don't give up hope! 11 years seems very short, but for medical advancements it's long. There may be new drugs or treatments in the future. Don't apologize for crying or for feeling the things you feel, in the position you are in you are valid for feeling angry, sad, or scared. Take as much time as you need, we will always be here for you.
My husband was diagnosed with brain cancer following a series of absent seizures and an MRI in 2017. It was extremely hard news to swallow - he was 23 at the time and healthy as could be. They were unable to determine what kind of tumor it was, aside from the fact that it was quite aggressive. He took chemo and radiation, had 2 brain surgeries within a few months of each other, and he was told he’d be on anti-seizure meds for the rest of his life.
7 years later, his MRIs continue to come back clear and he is officially off his anti-seizure meds.
Of course every case is different, but I truly hope that you can find it in yourself to hold onto hope, and the knowledge that things do not always go the way they’re expected to go. I wish I had anything more meaningful to say, but I am rooting for you, and I will be thinking of you and your loved ones ❤ I’m so glad you have a good support system
The Oncologist gave my wife six months to live and that was three years ago. You just never know. Now we just take it from one birthday to the next with each one a huge accomplishment. You seem like a sweetheart please stay strong.

Big hug Éireann 🤗 it’s bloody shitty you’re all going through this, please God some miracle will happen before the 11 years. The way you speak so openly and still manage to articulate yourself so well, shows great strength. Of course, it’s only natural you’d be upset. You are such an incredible lady for sharing. Sending big love ❤
Oh boy, I have to really stop myself going off. I would never go back to that doctor again. There is so much wrong with what this doctor told you. So many red flags. I cannot overstate how important it is to keep a positive mental outlook which leads to significantly better outcomes. I've seen it in my own husband who was diagnosed with glioblastoma in January. We were told 6 months and we spent most of that time in absolute despair. Well he just passed the 8 month mark and he's doing great. There are so many treatments down the track for brain cancer that are so promising. Even 5 years from now things could be very different. You need a medical team who is looking ahead to very long term management or even a cure for you. You DESERVE that. Do not accept what this doctor has told you. I predict you will feel so much better after your second opinion with the best doctor you can find. Sending much love and good wishes your way!
Sweetheart. I send you the biggest virtual hug. This is horrible and i cannot imagine the grief youre experiencing and trying to reconcile this but sending you love and hope you will find your way to enjoy your life experieince no matter how long or painful youre told it will be, find love and joy between the moments of pain. It takes an incredible amout of courage to be able to speak openly to the internet strangers and possibly to others just as afraid and grief stricken as yourself with news of terminal illness ...we all are terminal really ... just some get a time range others pass suddenly...you have been given a gift and curse .. My grandmother passed from brain cancer ...she had 6 months from diagnosis...back in 2001...she was gone in 2 months...medical science wasn't there yet..but she was older at 61. But it went fast...you have 10 ish wonderful years ahead...challenging but ...share and receive as much love now ...love is the most beautiful thing in life in my opinion...much love and strength to you and your family ❤
My mom passed September 9th from her glioblastoma. Thank you for sharing your experience with us. I love you all.
I am so sorry to hear. My mom also passed away several months ago. Take care.
So sorry for your loss xx
