Are you, or do you know any brain cancer survive rs?

My brother was just diagnosed with brain cancer. He is 55 years old. The tumor was removed on Wednesday. We do know it is malignant, but do not yet know the stage. His CT scan and MRI came back clear, however the doctor said he would still require radiation and chemotherapy. I have read some very negative prognosis for brain cancer and that is why I am asking for others to tell me what they have experienced. Please be truthful, even if the outcome is negative.
