I am so sorry seeing the video and reading the comments. I really hoped he would make it, at least make it a little bit longer. But he did it with great dignity. May George Rest In Peace. Bless his husband and family.

Update from his Instagram: he passed away today 8/9/2023. His fight to raise awareness is inspiring.

Very sad , RIP

Crying because their love and strength is so beyond. These men are HEROS.

My condolences to you Justin. My heart breaks for what you both have been through. I too lost the love of my life on August 4, 2017. We met in 1977 and were together for 40 years. I was 32 and he was 26. From that moment on, we were never apart. I was an ex singer and he was a V.P of Advertising at a major Hollywood Studio. He was the blond swimmer type and I was the dark haired muscle guy. We were quite the couple. Heads really did turn when we walked into a room (Mostly because of his breathtaking smile) He was my best friend, my lover, my confidant and my husband. In 2013 when it became legal to marry, we were wed on July 31st. I was so lucky to have him in my life. In 2016, his health started to fail. He was pretty bed ridden most of the time and eventually passed away in Hospice care at home. The last 6 years for me have been grueling. I felt half of me was always missing. Infact it was true. When you're with someone for so long, you know almost every thought they have and you even finish eachothers sentences. I became the man I am today because of him. The love you've shared never really dies. I love him today as I always have. God was good to me and I thank Him every day for sending me a love so wonderful. I will pray for both you and George. I know you had the same loving relationship that we had . We were blessed. God Bless you, Justin. 💙

I got lucky enough to meet George at MSK 53rd st a few months ago. I’m a brain tumor patient and for the brief moments that we talked I felt a bond with him that I haven’t felt with anyone else in the years since I was diagnosed. RIP George I will never forget you ❤️

Stay in the fight Dear1.... praying for you

What a beautiful disposition George had and what a wonderful human being he was. My heart breaks that this dreadful illness struck George down. RIP sweet man!

My friend passed away from Glioblastoma stage 4. Jenni was 40. I miss her.❤❤❤

My best friend lost both her parents to brain cancer 10 years apart 😢, its a vile , cruel and brutal disease that takes so much away. George has the most incredible outlook, he's pretty amazing and i hope i would be so gracious if i were ever to be in this position. Im so sorry to hear that George has since passed away, im sorry for your loss Justin. George may be gone but that kind of love will be there forever ❤❤

Only love! I've mourned a man I didn't even know. Beautiful soul.

❤❤ Prayers from South Africa. I'm a 22 year cancer survivor. Be blessed. ❤❤

i am gutted - they are such an inspirational couple and God has a special place for them. This is LOVE regardless of gender, race, they are pure LOVE. God has blessed them

My mom passed away from stage 4 Glioblastoma. 😞 Its a horrible disease. I pray that they find a cure for every type of cancer.

My condolences Justin. George’s story and your love will continue to inspire others.

Justin, I was where you are. It's an overwhelming fear, worry and knowing without a miracle, he will pass. My husband lived for 5 months after his diagnosed. We did everything he wanted to do to live. Love and prayers for you and family during this time of loss❤🙏

This was heart warming and encouraging to me as a stage 4 head and neck cancer survivor three and a half year. Got a few scares from hospitals in the past who didn’t know about my six weeks radiation treatments to the head and neck which raised alarms. Multiple Ct and MRI’s. Now a few day ago got another scare from a neurologist about possible brain cancer but in three years never had no signs of sickness to this day. Like all CT and MRI scan I’m confident it all scar tissue as usual and will soon find out from my oncologist and the other Dr’s my neurologist os setting me up to see. Again no sign of any sickness. Praying for all who is fighting this battle.

I hope they also helped his husband, Justin, because I know that as a caregiver you can sometimes be so focused on doing everything you can that you end up forgetting that there is an end and the caregiver has to be helped with that part too!

George, you will be dearly missed. Fly free of pain. Thank you for your honest journey about cancer. You have inspired myself, and so many others. RIP Justin and family much love.

As I sit here at work and watching and listening to George 's story and his amazing and incredible out look on what he's going through is ssuch an inspiration and a beacon of hope, strength, beliefs and accepting of the possibility of leaving this world, but most important, leaving his Husband and Best Friend behind. I'm in tears as I write this because I've never seen a stronger love other than my parents like this before and I'm touched by the True love these Beautiful Men have for one another. Having the one youfell in love with by your side through this Journey and knowing you are not alone. The courage and strength you have George is very inspiring and it gives hope to others that may be going through same as you, and that is what you will behind as a testament of embracing your Journey and tackle it head on until the bitter end. Thank you George and I know God is waiting for you and to welcome you home, with him... Absolutely love you guys... Enough said.....

So appreciate George and Justin for their beautifully honest expression. Rest in peace George.

Thank you, George and Justin for sharing your incredibly inspiring journey. Your story of resilience, hope, and selflessness is a true testament to the human spirit. It's extraordinary to see the impact your are making on rare cancer research through Cycle for Survival. This video is a powerful reminder of the importance of supporting one another and finding purpose even in the face of adversity. Sending so much love and strength to you and all those affected by GBM. #MyJourneybyGeorgeKolasa #GlioblastomaAwareness #CycleForSurvival

My condolences Justin. What a beautiful love story. My husband has been diagnosed with end stage liver disease. The grieving process started during that doctor visit and I have gone through the stages of grief sometimes more than once. What’s hardest for me is watching our kids go through such pain. I hope you surround yourself with support and to thank you both for sharing your journey so candidly. ❤️

Deepest condolences. To have known this true, profound mutual love is a gift that many people will never experience. Two amazing men. God speed, George.

Thank you George and Justin. George's gratitude and perspective through this journey is beyond inspiring.

Thank you for sharing your journey. We lost my step dad a few months ago. He never made it through the journey because he didn’t make it through the first surgery to remove some of the tumor. Watching you have such a great attitude and your relationship is amazing and it makes my heart happy.

what a amazing soul! I have depression and seeing George’s fighting is just so motivating to me!

He is such an inspiration nothing but prayers

Toughest journeys for the sweetest souls.. May we be reunited with our loved ones.. 🕊️

George and Justin, you are both incredible. Dr. Reidy, once again, you find a way to show us what is important in life. Thank you.

Bless their beautiful hearts ❤❤ I'm so sorry Justin for your sad loss of your beautiful, strong and very brave husband George ❤️ 😢 I'm sending you much love xxx

George and Justin are good men

I am touched by your story of love and life. I am so sorry for your loss. But he is all cured and well in the arms of God. Being a caregiver is the most difficult thing to do. Justin you have an enormous heart and deep compassion. Bless you in your healing . God loves you.

Thanks so much for sharing your story, Ive been in the caregiver role and it was such a privilege to do that for my husband. You’re both Amazing. So sorry for your loss, take the time you need to heal yourself now.

I’m so sorry. It’s cruel and sad to have everything in life and it’s taken away. RIP

God Bless Justin. R.I.P George.

I am so sorry for the loss of your sensible kind friend George, dearJustin. You were so lovely ❤ to each other. You both had to accept the terrible reality. You did both the best you could do. Respect! I wish you a lot of strength 🍁.

George was an inspiration- I’m ill and he did it right… so positively

George and Justin showed so much mental excess during very hard times❣️ Justin, I hope and wish for you that your life will be a truly good life❤️ George, rest in peace knowing that you were loved💫

God bless both of you. I admire the love you have for each other.

Thank you George and Justin for sharing your story. I to am battling cancer and am lucky enough to have a supportive partner. Thank God for him!! My love and prayers to you from Vancouver Canada xo

Love is beautiful and this love is true love, this married couple is amazing! I hear he passed on 8/09/23. What a great loss of a beautiful man. Love to his husband during his grief and pain.

Beautiful people - beautiful medical team.

Prayers are said....I am currently going thru cancer with my partner, who just completed his 6 months of chemo. This Wednesday we have another Pet Scan to see if the cancer has diminished, we can only pray. We have been told there is no cure but look towards remission, he has taken a positive outlook. RIP George (btw, my partners name is George as well).

It a story of strength and love and commitment . It’s helps raise awareness about this horrible cancer.

I am so sorry for your loss. RIP

Thanks for sharing your caregiving/care recipient story. Stories matter.

glad they have each other! beautiful!

Beautiful testimony 🙏and I can so much relate. I lost my beloved sister to glioblastoma,she was 51 years old ❤️💔

He was not a born again believer and therefore is not in Heaven unless he repented and accepted Christ as his Savior before he died. Lying to people about what it means to be saved is not love. Encouraging a lifestyle that assures people they will not spend eternity with Jesus is not love.

George, you inspired me! You made me feel small with your self control. I envy that.

Sorry for your loss. My mother died for the same illness many years ago...

You 2 are Amazong. KEEP it up. Sending you all the love hugs

This story broke my heart

This story hits so hard. My husband of 20 years was diagnosed with frontal lobe butterfly GBM June 2021 he died April 2022 at only 42 years old. He did 30 rounds of radiation and was on chemo pills for months that made him sick and weaker, it gave him more time but not quality time, he had back to back surgeries due to almost dying after complications from the first surgery. I still battle daily with depression and finding meaning in life. You can't spend 20 years (my entire adult life) with the same person and become a caregiver for 9 months and come out the same person. The PTSD trauma, slowly watching the love of your life die slowly from this awful cancer, no short term memory, seizures, going blind and deaf, swollen beyond recognition, edema in legs and feet from Dexamethasone, it's truly awful. It's an isolating feeling and nobody understands long grief, people get so uncomfortable.

How very sad....my his memory be a blessing ❤

My heart goes out to you both! I wish I could watch this video, but it hits too close to home, as my own husband is dealing with GBM. I'm so sorry for your loss Justin.

I'm sorry to hear of your loss. My partner was diagnosed in December 2012 with the same horrific disease. Fourteen months later, he passed. May you be comforted by the sweet memories you made.❤

My heat is broken for you both! I lost one stepbrother to Glio, and four year later the second brother. Our family is completely in shock and denial. Not all of us can processes what has happened. The rest of us, we get it! This is NO ONES FAULT, BAD THINGS HAPPEN TO THOSE WE LOVE! THE IMPORTANT THING IS TO BE TOGETHER THRUGH THIS TERRIBLE CIRCUMSTANCE? There is simply nothing worse the to NEED HELP!

Rest in peace 🎉❤from Sri Lanka

Justin. how sorry I am for your loss of George several weeks ago. My brother was 55 when he passed away with GLIOBLASTOMA. HE WAS DIAGNOSED IN April and passed away 2 months later. They told us he could survive 8-10 months with chemo and radiation. His wife said no. So, Sadly, He died the next day. You were Blessed to have George for the time you did. May he R.I.P.😢💔🙏🏼😷💑🏻🎗☣️✝️

I just happened across their faces today at 2:40 pm,.. 10/9/23'...my condolences.

RIP George. Thinking of you Justin

"I really wish that my favorite Filipino actress had survived her treatment. She was diagnosed with endometrial cancer and was admitted to your hospital in an effort to fight the disease. Unfortunately, she passed away on August 5, 2022. It's been heartbreaking to see my favorite actor go, and it seems like the Philippine Entertainment Industry will never be the same without her. Her name was Evangeline Rose Gil Eigenmann_Rogoff, but she was famously known as Cherie Gil. I miss her beauty, her strong presence, her acting prowess, and much more. She was a very talented icon whom I will always love and cherish. Sloane, I want to thank you for taking care of our Cherie_amour during her treatment in your hospital. She appreciated the care you gave her." Once again THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Prayers ascending for you...

So sorry. 💔

without words 😞😞😞

I'm so sorry. 💔💔😭

Sad to hear George already passed away.

My dad died from the same thing. A year to the date of diagnosis. Seems similar here and for almost everyone else with this cancer.

I would give you my all my money if I could after watch your video. I’m sobbing! I was not expecting that.

he had love and was not alone, many of us are alone, suffering, and suppose to act normal and its al s fake and empty, i rarely see my children, they work, ita all seems for nothing, this life i lived,

Very brave ~

RIP George❤

Such dignity , respect and love.. that George showed Justin and his team of doctors… everyone that helped him.. is inspiring and heartwarming. RIP George and condolences Justin and all. 😔🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

Omg i came across this sep 8 2023 rip 😢

So sweet but sadly so hard.

I’m so sorry to hear that George passed away! For anyone watching this now who has been diagnosed with glioblastoma, please try water fasting and a low carb, no sugar, no processed food diet. Dr. Thomas Seyfried has used fasting specifically with glioblastomas with much success, and argues that many cancers are metabolic, not genetic in nature. Even if you end up doing some of the traditional medical treatment, fasting and low carb may help. Dr. Valter Longo, a fasting specialist, has suggested using fasting around the days of chemotherapy, and has suggested that it helps the treatment be more effective than without fasting. I realize it may not work for everyone, but there is a lot of research out there suggesting extended fasting and eating a low carb, no sugar, no processed food, no grain diet can help with many types of cancers. ❤❤❤
