Welcome to the JohnVsGBM Blog – This Is Our Fight

This is not just my story. This is our story—of survivors, of thrivers, and of caregivers who are the air in our lungs when we can barely breathe. This space is for anyone touched by cancer, especially those navigating the brutal reality of brain cancer.

HELLO, I'M JOHNATHAN.

I was diagnosed with Glioblastoma (GBM) the day before Thanksgiving, 2023. When I searched for hope, all I found were grim statistics. So I decided to share my own journey — one of strength, honesty, and resilience — to remind others that every GBM story is different.

I was diagnosed with Glioblastoma (GBM) - aka Brain Cancer, November 22, 2023, the day before Thanksgiving. I'm sharing my journey in hopes it might provide comfort, assistance, or guidance to someone else facing a similar journey. When I was first diagnosed, I scoured the internet for stories of hope but found mostly negativity and ominous predictions. I knew there were survivors out there, and each person's journey with GBM is unique. Follow along as I battle this diagnosis.
