December 4, 2007, 8:49pm (report abuse)My daughter was diagnosed with a brain tumor @ 9 months old. Two weeks before her 1 st birthday, she underwent a nine hours brain surgery which left her with lifelong medical problems. This was followed by 1 1/2 years of chemotherapy. How many children have to suffer this way before research becomes properly funded? How many parents have to experience this pain before our goverment takes a stand? Please remember our story and fight for the "Conquer Childhood Cancer Act". Write to your congressman, spread the word, visit www.CureSearch.org. Innocent children are counting on us, we can't let them down!
