I am trying to get my coworkers interested in a brain tumor walk in the Rhode Island area. The event coordinator seems interested in having one late October or early November.

I support a local brain tumor organization called Gray Matters Foundation. This month we have had 2 fundraisers, one at a game at our local Major league Baseball team, The Diamondbacks and one at a local bowling alley.

I just went to the link and signed the petition for the stamp and...
It will be a good time to go to the hospital and visit new survivors and introduce them to NTBS. |

I know the contest is to late to enter. I would have liked a bracelet to wear in the memory of my mom who died of brain cancer. She died May 3, 2010 and it is hard to beleive she is gone. My mom was my best friend not just my mom. I am looking for a brain cancer group in alpharetta, ga. I have not found one yet but hopefully there is one out there.

I plan to post things on my facebook page in May for brain tumor awareness. I've also asked my family and friends to wear a gray shirt or ribbon to make people aware of brain tumors. I'm a glioblasotoma survivor...Terri
