You
know me. I'm your six year old son or maybe your five year old
grand daughter. I'm the four year girl old that lives next door. Perhaps the eight year old boy playing soccer around
the corner. Or even one of the seven year olds laughing as they ride their bikes past the house. I'm in the group of
children at the water park or with my friends in the playground. You know me. I could be your child. You may not know it but I have a brain tumor. I didn't ask for it. I did nothing wrong or different to get it. The doctors don't know how or why, it just happened. I've been told that it is inoperable and there is no cure. You may not know it, but you know me...I could be your child. |
If you have found and are reading this site, chances are
that your child has or you have intimate knowledge of a
child that has been newly diagnosed with a brain tumor.
If so, I am truly sorry that you have found us. Further,
chances are you have never met or had any knowledge of
a child with a brain tumor until recently. At least that is
how it was for us. On October 19, 2005, a mass was
discovered in the brain stem of our son JJ. Two days
later, he was diagnosed with a rare and inoperable brain
tumor - a diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (dipg). We, like
you, went on an internet quest for additional
knowledge. Many sites were discovered and researched,
each providing information and support. It is our intent
to join those who have dedicated themselves to helping
others and finding the cure. We sincerely hope this site
serves as an information portal and becomes someplace
you want to come for emotional support, information,
links and the experiences of children who have been
there.
