With her original diagnosis being done on January 1, 2014, only 3 months later in April, her cancer not only returned, but it would turn into a Grade 4 Astrocytoma, which also goes by the name Glioblastoma Multiforme. And what was more devastating than that was it was known to be the deadliest kind of brain cancer known in the medical field. Where originally she was given at least 10 years to live, now she got the heartbreaking news of it being lessened to only 6 months.

According to Brittany, when the doctors gave her the initial diagnosis, they explained that it was not going to be an easy process. And the medicine that she had been on since her first prognosis had already altered her appearance. So when she found out about the second diagnosis, she knew treatment was going to be much worse than what she had already endured. In fact, doctors had explained to her that sadly, her death was going to be slow and almost intolerable, if not downright painful and pretty much unbearable by the end.
