If you lovely people would be soooo kind, lease sign the petition below on behalf of my 27yr old son who is battling brain cancer at the moment, and so far he has already defied Dr's orders by a few weeks already, just hope he can continue to fight for as long as possible... Love him to the moon and back.....



Brain tumours kill more people under the age of 40 than any other cancer, including more children and life expectancy for people with brain tumours has not increased for 40 years; they are responsible for an average loss of life of over 20 years and up to 40% of all cancers which initiate outside the brain lead to a secondary cancer in the brain, though many secondary brain tumours are not recorded.

This petition therefore calls on the Government to take action to:
• Improve brain tumour diagnosis.
• Enforce best practice in brain tumour care.
• Increase the proportion of cancer research spending on brain tumours.

To make a real difference we need over 100,000 people to sign the e-petition so please sign the e-petition here http://epetitions.direct.gov.uk/petitions/35167 and spread the word.

    Done. My sister lost her little boy to a brain tumour in 82. Still doesn't seem to be enough research on this condition.
    Best Wishes

    Signed.

    My husband was diagnoised with testicular cancer at 26, he died at 35 of secondary brain cancer.

    My prayers are with you both.
    Life is not the way it’s supposed to be. It’s the way it is. The way you cope with it is what makes the difference.
