  • I am currently a college student who is volunteering for the children's brain tumor foundation which is a nonprofit organization. Our mission is to improve the treatment, quality of life and long term outlook for children with brain and spinal cord tumors through research, support, education and advocacy to families and survivors. Please donate if you can at firstgiving .c o m /fundraiser/laurendelacruz /fundraisingpage (take out the spaces) Every $1 counts!

  • Why dont they just kill those people its too expensive and they are fat retards anyway

  • Yikes, my dad was diagnosed with a brain tumor today :(

  • i have a brian tumor.thats why i looking at this stuff lol god bless this world

  • @lucrene1112 when I had the brain operation...they could not get it all...

  • I have had brain cancer since the age 7-8...Pilocytic-astrocytoma...­..had brain operation as an adult....No chemo...No radition.....there are other ways...........please check out my channel.....& never let a Doctor tell you how long you have to live.....

  • Thankfully we have a mostly socialised health care system here in the UK (NHS) so all my tumour diagnosis and treatment is free and I can have it within a few weeks of requesting it. The other advantage is that economies of scale mean the NHS is considered more cost efficient relative to private insurance based systems. Its overall costs is huge, of course, but then so too would be a private system. Perhaps the best thing about it is that it offers peace-of-mind to the whole population.

  • yes, thats true pls watch alliah brain cancer..a 5year old with cerebellar ependymoma grade 2.. malignant cancer attached to lung center of the brain

  • @proaudiohd That is so true, I had A grade 2 astrocytoma brain tumor in 2007 removed and nobody can afford it!!!

  • The idea that some people are forced to choose WHICH finger(s) to keep because of their bill after accidents is horrific.
