Former congresswoman Mia Love was diagnosed with glioblastoma, a type of brain cancer, in 2022, and she has been battling the disease ever since. Sadly, her daughter, Abigale, took to X on Saturday and announced that treatment is no longer working, the cancer is progressing, and her family is switching gears to enjoying what little time they have left with their mom and wife. She also asked for people share their photos, videos, and other memories of her mom via an email address: MiaLoveMemories@gmail.com.
"About a year and a half ago, I went on vacation with my family. As soon as we landed, I felt a headache come on. When we went to the beach, the reflection of the sun on the water made the headache worse. My husband took me to the hospital," Love said while speaking at a conference in 2023.
Doctors took X-rays and discovered a brain tumor. Upon returning to Utah, she was able to have 95% of it removed. While Love and her family and medical team hoped it was benign, biopsy results came back positive for cancer. She had a "Grade 4, fast-growing tumor." Doctors gave her 10 to 15 months to live.
"I would believe the diagnosis, but I would not believe the prognosis," she said, adding, "I had babies! And I could not leave my husband. His mother had died from a brain tumor."

She lost favor with many Republicans in 2016 when she didn't support Donald Trump for president, and in 2019, she was voted out of office. However, in 2024, in one of her last posts on X, she announced that she was proudly supporting the Trump/JD Vance ticket.

Our prayers for her, for her family.
Awful. I watched a friend die of this. Wouldn’t wish it all my worst enemy.
🛐🛐🙏🙏✝️✝️
Sad news. Hope and pray for the best.
I liked her. It’s too bad she didn’t receive as much support as she should have.
Mia Love is a good person with moral standards. Pray for her.
You are so right. My husband died 15 days after he was diagnosed with a glioblastoma. He had no symptoms before collapsing at home.
Glioblastoma used to be exceedingly rare.
Not anymore.
Oh my gosh...no symptoms, collapsed, diagnosed and gone 15 days after diagnosis. What a horrible thing for your husband and you. So sorry to hear that, Poly.
As an aside, a Democrat beat her in 2012 and 2018 - both times very close. Yet she won in 2014 and 2016 easily.

Sending up prayers for Mia Love and her family. 🙏
If she didnt support Trump in 2016 she probably didn’t help him much in her last term either, and indirectly helped bring about the Joe Biden theft and what we’re dealing with today.
So she was diagnosed with early on-set of TDS in 2016?
She probably misread the tea leaves on the matter and had the usual misfiring that we all have. Did she support him in 2020 or 2024?
Terrible tragedy. 😰✝️
Only treatment I know is a keto diet which seems to be about 70% effective at a 3 year survival rate. She’s done good to make it thus far.
Isn't it amazing how Democrats always win the squeakers. It's as if they can always come up with few more ballots.
If this is your only take away then you clearly are not much of a human being.
