Hey all I am new here and am looking for some friends, My name is Kevin and I am a Childhood Brain Cancer surviver, I was diagnosed on May of 92 and now am 23. Been in remission for going on 12 years now. I am from a small town in NW Alabama, and I have a Support group for Teens and Young adults Survivers in Muscle shoals Alabama. I would like to meet more survivers and maybe someone my age. The support group is SIA (survivers in action) it was started by Somer Hood, she died in the fall of last year, she had Glioblastoma Grade A, u can read about her on the net, just go to any search engine and type in her name. Well I hope to chat to lots of People, Love ya all!

You should try logging onto the chat room, that is agreat place to start. There are also some other discussion groups titled childhood survivors..
    But, if I can help you please let me know.. Good Luck, and God Bless

    i AM NOT SURE U WOULD COUNT ME AS A YOUNG ADULT (I AM 30 AND PLEASE FORGIVE CAPS BECAUSE MY EYES ARE BAD)
    I HAD A GRADE 2 MALIGNANT BRAIN TUMOR IN 84 WHEN I WAS 10AND HAVE BEEN IN REMISSION 20 YEARS AND DR DIDN'T EXPECT ME TO LIVE. AS A SONG I LOVE BY QUEEN SAYS, "WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS!"
    GOD CAN DO MIRACLES AND I MYSELF AM LOOKING FOR SOME FELLOW "MIRACLE PPL" AND CANCER SURVIVORS. I PREFER NOT TO GIVE MY REAL NAME RIGHT NOW.
