Jessica Morris was diagnosed with glioblastoma (GBM) — the most aggressive form of brain cancer — in 2016. Fewer than 5% of people survive beyond five years. In the face of this terrifying diagnosis, Jessica chose to live with fierce determination and purpose. Until just months before her passing in 2021, she informed, empowered, and uplifted countless others facing GBM.
During that time she kept a blog, which chronicled her experiences with experimental treatments, her moments of hope and fear, and her unshakable resolve to help others. That journey ultimately led her to found OurBrainBank, a groundbreaking nonprofit dedicated to turning GBM from terminal to treatable, powered by patients.
But the blog was only the beginning. ALL IN MY HEAD is the culmination of Jessica’s life’s work, to inspire courage in others living in unthinkable conditions. Through her words, Jessica shares her reflections on love, life, loss, and the power of patients having a voice in their care.
Please join us to celebrate her book and to support the ongoing work of OurBrainBank.
Please arrive at 7pm; program begins at 7:30pm.
