According to the American Brain Tumor Association’s website, brain tumors are the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths in children under age twenty. They are the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths in males ages twenty to thirty-nine, and the fifth leading cause of cancer-related deaths in females in the same age range. An estimated 69,720 new cases of primary brain tumors are expected to be diagnosed in 2013, including both malignant and non-malignant tumors.Those are just a few of the facts. Inside the pages of this book you will meet the caregivers and their loved ones who fought valiantly against brain cancer. The stories will, hopefully, inspire you to join the fight against cancer – but more importantly, they will introduce you to some of the strongest men and women you may ever meet. Readers will also meet Jennifer – a survivor and story of hope against this disease. Our loved ones will forever remain in our hearts, and now we hope that they will find a place in yours as well. All the author's proceeds from this book are being donated to the American Brain Tumor Association (ABTA) for research and caregiver support.
