Terminal Brain Tumour to 10 Years Later - Dave Bolton’s Survival Story (Part 2)

Dave Bolton was given just three months to live with a brain tumour. Nearly ten years later, he is still here - and this is how he did it.Welcome back to Cancer Cured Me. This is Part 2 of one of the most extraordinary conversations I’ve ever had.In this episode, Dave shares what happened after his diagnosis of a brain tumour, later confirmed as a glioblastoma - one of the most aggressive and terminal forms of cancer.This is where his story shifts from survival… to something much bigger.We talk about the moment he was told he had a tumour in his brain, the fear, the waiting, the surgery, and the devastating prognosis that followed. But we also go deep into what he chose to do next - and the decisions that have led him to still be here today.This is not about false hope. It’s about possibility. It’s about taking back control when everything feels out of your hands.And it’s about understanding that a prognosis is not always the full picture.In this episode, I share with Dave:The moment he was diagnosed with a brain tumourBeing told he had just 3 months to live without treatmentUndergoing major brain surgery with a 75% risk of not survivingThe second diagnosis - a fast-growing glioblastomaThe reality of chemotherapy and radiotherapyHitting rock bottom and completely shutting downThe turning point that changed everythingWhat Dave did differentlyThis is the part so many of you have been asking for.Dave shares the approach he took to support his body alongside conventional treatment - something that aligns so deeply with what I believe and what I talk about on this podcast.We talk about:Nutrition and why he shifted his dietThe role of exercise and movement in healingMindset, visualisation and the power of the mindStress, trauma and how they impact the bodyComplementary therapies - from cold water to breathwork-style practicesCreating a 360-degree approach to healingSomething that really stayed with me from this conversation is this:“Accept your diagnosis, but never accept your prognosis.”Where Dave is nowDave is now nearly 10 years on from a 3-month prognosis.He is part of a tiny percentage of people in the world living this far beyond a glioblastoma diagnosis.What this episode is really aboutThis conversation is not about rejecting medicine. It’s not about doing one thing over another.It’s about expanding the conversation.It’s about understanding that healing can be supported in many ways.And it’s about remembering that:You are not averageYou are not aloneThere is always something you can doIf you’re going through this right nowSomething that came through so strongly in this episode is this:You are allowed to have the hard days.You are allowed to feel everything.But there is also space for hope.And sometimes, that starts with hearing a story like this.If this episode resonates with you, please share it with someone who might need it.And if you’d like to connect with Dave or learn more about his work, all links are in the show notes.Because sometimes…The stories that sound impossibleAre the ones that change everything.WORK WITH ME!
