Glioblastoma can be difficult to treat because the tumors contain so many different types of cells, the association says. This type of cancer cannot be cured.

The Mayo Clinic said this type of cancer is rare with less than 200,000 cases diagnosed each year.

He'll be meeting his Maker soon. I pray he doesn't greet God with the same derisive attitude with which he greeted us "whacko birds" and "hobbits". That mistake would dwarf the one he made with us.

I hate McCain’s quisling politics as much as any man, but I wouldn’t wish that on anyone ... except maybe Nancy Pelosi ... or Al Gore ... or Chuck Schumer ... or that obama guy ... or ...

CAR-T cell therapy has had some success against Glioblastoma in clinical trials. Maybe he could qualify for a trial.

I am sorry for him and his family, but the way he's been acting? I thought it had to be either Alzheimer's OR a Brain Tumor

If McCain has a brain tumor, Pelosi has the creature from A L I E N.

If he was in Great Britain an EU judge or death panel would be saying too bad, so sad no more treatment for you a la Charlie Gard

Prayers up for Sen. McCain and his family in this difficult time. IIRC, glioblastoma is the diagnosis that drove a young wife and mother to move to Oregon from California for a prescription of lethal medication last year.

Sorry to hear this . He served his country well. So sad for Cindy, Megan, and his other children. I will pray that he has peace at the end.

I have seen people suffer from terrible illnesses and I have seen people die. Prayers offered, from one human being for another.

I hope for the best for him, but it is REALLY past time for him to retire and let a true Conservative take his place in the senate.

He may be screwed as it is but if he had obozo care just think of the options he would have. Re the ACA death panals and in the obozo’s own terms to the elderly who are sick; just take a pill.
