Plot device: Your question caught my interest. It's good that the popular media have made people more aware of health concerns. As in other popular portrayals of brain tumors, accuracy takes back seat to plot. Death is quick (as for lillie) in glioblastoma, the most common adult brain tumor, especially if untreated, but her being articulate, marrying and dying in a few days is less realistic.
