So sorry.

I got a chill, seeing this thread revived.

I wish your family the best in this time of mourning.

Greg,
I'm so sorry to read this update. My thoughts are with you and your family during this difficult time.
Pediatric cancer is such a tragedy, unfortunately I see it all the time.

Sad news Greg, even more so when it's a beautiful child. Wake up call to all parents, don't sweat the small things, love your children, call them and tell them that you love them.

Thoughts and prayers to the family Greg.

She truly looks like a little angel in that picture. I see cases like this all of the time at my mothers hospital. Innocent children suffering for no reason. I am almost speechless. I hope everything turns out for the best. Mosco, I would advise to spend as much time with that little angel as humanly possible.

EDIT, We are also in a time now that we have the most advanced technology for disease and cancer than ever before. There is always hope. Keep going to see her and make her smile. Laughter and love go a long long way.

From me too mate, looking at the photo of such a sweet innocent child struck down with cancer makes me feel terrible and helpless, brain cancers seem to be getting so common.

I only found out two weeks ago my cousin (married, mid thirties, 1 child and wife 23 weeks pregnant) has a lemon sized brain tumour, he's going in for an operation in a couple of weeks, we are cautiously hopeful of a full recovery.

Good luck to you and your family Greg, I hope everything turns out positively.
