On Monday, I had further experimental treatment for my “brain cancer” #glioblastoma. This was delayed because there had been concerns about some of my blood test results. As a consequence, until recently, I hadn’t been exercising. But I am continuing to feel well. Thank you @ProfGLongMIA & other members of @MelanomaAus & the neuro-oncology team for facilitating my treatments. I will be having another MRI brain scan next Thursday 9th May. Hard to believe it’s nearly the one year anniversary since my initial seizure in #Poland & my #glioblastoma was discovered. Thank you to my wonderful wife Katie & my family, friends, colleagues & indeed everyone for all the incredible support I’ve been receiving - I am truly grateful! @MelanomaAus @SydneyLHD @Sydney_Uni

Dose 8 (of 10) personalised anticancer vaccine administered last week as experimental treatment for my #glioblastoma. Sore arm for a couple of days but otherwise feeling good. Thanks @ProfGLongMIA, @mariag20057502 & @MelanomaAus team for organising & delivering! I hope everyone has enjoyed their weekend. @MelanomaAus @SydneyLHD @Sydney_Uni @parkrunAU

Fantastic news!!!!!! Amazingly, my latest MRI brain scan shows no recurrence 10 months since my #glioblastoma presented with a seizure in #Poland. Median time to recurrence is 6 months. I’m extremely hopeful that the novel #neoadjuvant combination #immunotherapy I’ve had & the scientific changes we demonstrated in my tumour post versus pre immunotherapy are being translated into clinical benefit! I’d be thrilled & very proud if this novel approach makes a difference for me & future #brain #cancer patients. Thanks @ProfGLongMIA for devising & facilitating this superb approach & other members of multidisciplinary team including the @MelanomaAus team & other specialists @Dr_Brindha, Helen Wheeler, Michael Back & many others. Well done also to our @MelanomaAus translation research team including @HelenRizos! Special thanks for the ongoing support of my wife Katie, 3 kids Em, Matt & Luce, bro Mark, @subbie & many other family & friends! @SydneyLHD @Sydney_Uni @MelanomaAus @ausoftheyear
