Greetings! Today I created a petition on change.org. I have realized that not enough money gets put into brain tumor research. After a bit of digging, I found that many brain tumor foundations only put 15-20% of the millions of dollars they raise into actual research.
This worried me. We need this research so our loved ones will receive top-quality care and treatment that will improve their quality of life.
My sister has been through so many treatments you can see the damage it has done to her body. There are scars up her right calf from removing a nerve and thick scar on her right thigh that looks like someone was trying to cut her leg in half. Spotted across her stomach are little scars where her tubes were. On the back of her neck and in places on her scalp are where you can see where they cut open. No child or adult should have these signs of their cancer.
Sign the petition. You can do so at the following website:

When you get there, you will see a form on the right. This is what allows you to sign.
Thank you very much for supporting this.
