I found his story to give my mom hope when her cancer had metastasized to her brain in 2025.

Cancer cells in the brain are in a nutrition rich environment for growth and at the same time dangerous for treatment for removal and to prevent growth. The expected 5 year life expectancy is less than 5%.

Dr. Richard Scolyer had been diagnosed at 2023 and is still with us today. I hope he succeeds in his work.
