Background
Founded in 2008 by a group of committed volunteers and families, the Seattle Brain Cancer Walk has raised more than $5.5 million for brain cancer research and clinical trials in the Pacific Northwest.
Glioblastomas are a rare subtype of brain tumor. Just under 24,000 people were diagnosed with any kind of malignant brain tumor in 2018. The survival rate for glioblastoma is low: 19 % of adults aged up to 44 will live five years or more after a glioblastoma diagnosis, and only 5 % for those over 55 will live that long. Laura lived for 30 months post-diagnosis. Contribute
