Andrew was one of the first clients of Valere Health we met back in May 2018 during Andrew's chemotherapy for a Glioblastoma Multiform in other words a very angry brain cancer.
Andrew was given a prognosis of less than 18 months survival and I am happily sitting here writing knowing I get to see him later today over two years past his diagnosis. It wasn't an easy journey for him to get here.
- Brain surgery
- 30 rounds of radiation
- 6 months of chemotherapy
Fatigue and nausea and two things that Andrew had to fight against during his treatment. and in his words
"Exercise has helped me maintain a positive mindset, improve my overall fitness and health. I now feel fitter and stronger than I was before my diagnosis"
What hes been up too?
*30% Improvement in his cardiovascular fitness
*80% Improvement in lower limb strength
*20% Improvement in core strength
*40% Improvement in chest strength
*Completed the 10km Bridge to Brisbane and two trips to Japan to continue his passion for snowboarding.
