Default Trying to help someone with a brain tumor

Hi All.

This morning I was told about a 28 year old young man who recently began suffering from seizures. He went to a neurologist, they did their tests and it was discovered he has a brain tumor. When I asked the girl who told me this "Can they operate"? She told me 'No, they told him it's too close to the brain".

She also said he got 3 opinions and no one would operate. She is getting me more info and when I get it I'll post here. I guess I'm trying to determine (once I get the exact diagnosis), if indeed no one will operate.

This young man is only 28 years old. What a shame.

Sometimes, when one finds a 4th opinion, one finds a doctor who has the absolutely latest laser or some kind of equipment that the other doctors don't presently have. I really don't know.

I felt I had to do something so I told her I would get more information for her. She is going to get the rest of his medical information.

When i find out more, I'll post here and maybe one of you can say "He has a shot, they are doing trials in this, or maybe we know a physician who does this type of sugery".

I really don't know.

So when i find out more, I'll post here.

Hey, we all have to help each other in this world.

Thanks much

Melody
