Melanie Kabo @MelanieKabo
@adamhayden @the_sdawg His daughter @MeghanMcCain seems to be bringing som awareness to this disease, but I wish more would be done. #btsm
Lisa O'Leary @lisaoleary524
@adamhayden @the_sdawg I think that McCain's dx brought attn to GBM, but most focus on his toughness and not the community #btsm
Dr. rer. pol.Sabine Schwab @Sabine_NJ
@TheLizArmy The next date for the big conference is the weekend of August 4th, 2018. I won't be able to go - my sis is getting married.#btsm

Liz Salmi @TheLizArmy
@lisaoleary524 My mom took care of my dad at the end w/his GBM. When she sees McCain on TV, she swears she can see him "slipping" : \ #btsm
