Are You or Your Loved One Suffering From Glioblastoma?

You May Be Entitled To Compensation!

Nearly a dozen people in the Fort Pierce area have been told the same horrible news from their doctors: They have glioblastoma.

They found a common trend between themselves: they live at most about 7 miles apart. The majority are within 5 miles of each other. Some lived on the same street at one point. In one case, two patients lived in the same house, though over a span of 20 years.

Once the majority of the 11 patients or living family members tracked each other down, they created a support group.

Dr. Henry Friedman, a neuro-oncologist and Deputy Director of the Preston Robert TischBrain Tumor Center at Duke University, said “It certainly seems like a higher number than one would expect during that common timeframe in such a small denominator as the size of that town.”

Friedman says the only known contributor to glioblastoma is exposure to radiation.
