You can see the heartbreak you are feeling Carrie. I felt this with my mum. Watching the person who is your number 1 in the world suffer and not being able to stop it is like living in hell. I feel for you all 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏💜💜💜💜.

Hi Brandon and Carrie, I just started watching all your videos this week. My dad was diagnosed with GBM in March. He is currently in his 3rd week of treatment, and we both can relate to how you were feeling in this video. It’s a discouraging tough week 3. Not every day is going to be positive, and getting through it is part of the process. I find comfort watching your videos while my dad is on the same exact journey. So thank you, for sharing and being a sense of support. Good luck and I look forward to continuing to watch your videos.

And yet again, thank you for sharing this journey. I continue to lift you and your family in prayer. Thank you for your honesty as to what you are dealing with on a daily basis. May you find a way to lean into GOD in this difficult time. And to you dear Carrie, may HIS peace comfort and guide you. It's okay to weep. You are human, and this has to be such a rollercoaster of a time. Just know that you two continue to inspire others!!!

Continued prayers! I especially pray for you & Carrie to have an overwhelming abundance of peace and comfort during this storm!

[@Slbruno5]

Continuing to prayer for you both. Brandon I love that you liken your situation to Job and are accepting the good with the not so good as from the Lord. Not easy to do. He is filling you with strength as you continue to stay in his word and seek him first. Carrie my sweet friend, we are praying for you and it is ok to feel broken, for when we are, that’s where God can meet us. Look around the corner to the lord as your father who is taking care of you. He’s in it with you. You are never alone. Love you both so much!

Brandon and Carrie...I literally have no words to express other than that Our Lord, and God is omnipresent and will be with you and your family through this journey. I pray for you all daily, and remain optimistic for your ultimate outcome of beating this! You are a WONDERFUL family, and I am HONORED to know you. You have given me continued opportunities to help you out during the airshows at the Arnold Palmer Regional Airport doing the on-air broadcast with Hank Baughman. I ALWAYS look forward to your visit to the flight line where we are set up. You have and are a beautiful family and I wish you all of the very best. I will watch with great interest all of the videos that you produce, and I look forward to the day that you WILL share great news for all of us who know you and love you. Blessings my friend... and I WILL see you again in May.

I'm also a GBM patient, and I actually would have Compazine for my in between Zofran use. During radiation I would always take the Zofran an hour before. Sometimes I would still feel rough so I would go for the Compazine for in between. It would make me feel tired, but it would take away extra nausea. Now during those six weeks I became so used to Zofran so often - I was all about preventing side effects - by the time I got to 5/23 it did not help at all! So on my second month I was switched to Suntol (Granisetron) which is same class as Zofran (Ondansetron), just stronger and I've been doing much better with it this far in! I did just finish month 5 of 5/23 and I do seem to be getting too used to the Granisetron even though I don't take it in between my 5 days on, but I just let myself rest more and take a Compazine as well and I get through.
