Denise I am so sorry for this.. ask the Doc if it is a gliomia.... my sister died from this and there is no cure or treatment and the problems swallowing means that it is effecting his brain signals to the rest of the body.. this cancer is not one you can just get it is one that is caused by your DNA not flushing through the body and settling where it is supposed to and it is found normally in Pediatrics.

I hope I am wriong.. I so hope I am wrong and I hope that it is something they can operate on and remove.... Please keep me posted

My first question was about the glio...I'm a hospice social worker and he "fits" the age profile...but oncologist told them it is surface, no "tentacles" but blood vessel bundles and the location is either on the surface of the meningioma or just below it...does not appear to have gone deeper, but is obviously pressing on vagus or some other nerve to effect swallowing, balance and speech.  Thanks for the prayers!!
