Brain Tumor Beware
"There has never been a more optimistic time in the management of brain tumors, and as neurosurgeons and neuro-oncologists, we will do our best to bring these new developments to you."
-Peter M. Black, M.D., Ph.D. (Living with a Brain Tumor, 2006)

Most people don't know that:

  • Brain tumors are the leading cause of solid tumor death in children

  • Brain tumors are the 2nd leading cause of cancer death in men under the age of 39

  • 20% of cancers will spread to the brain

Doctors and scientists will find a cure for brain cancers. It's just a matter of time, but, for people living with brain tumors today, that time is critical. New treatments are on the drawing board but funding to make them available to patients is limited. Please help us to move the latest developments into clinics where they can save lives. Lives of loved ones; sons and daughters; mothers and fathers, husbands and wives.

You can help by donating to the Oligo Fund at the Musella Foundation. The Oligo Fund is dedicated to supporting research focused on developing effective treatments for patients with oligodendroglioma tumors. Any money you donate to the Oligo Fund will be tax deductible and 100% of it will go to research.

There are many other organizations working to support research and to help people with brain tumors. Please visit the links page to learn more about some of them and visit our donating page to find other ways to donate to these causes.
