    Jacki,

    FIrst off, ignore Frank.  You probably already know there are people who will take advantage of others in a perilous situation.  He is one.  

    More importantly I want to say how sorry I am that you have lost your little one to cancer.  I lost my husband to stage 4 Jan 21st 2013 and we didn't even know he had it before Dec 26th 2012. They never did establish the primary cause of it since they found tumors and masses on most major organs and in his colon.  What I cannot wrap my head around is how it is certain people are susceptible to the disease.  How does someone so young have the propensity to a brain cancer?  What is going on in our biology that this is possible?  

    I saw this report on 60 Minutes a couple weeks ago and I can only hope this is something technology and determination will find a way to understand how we can manage the unknowns a bit better.  Maybe it will give us some solace in understanding the whys.  Thought i would share it with you.
