(This post was submitted to bear & lion by a mother of two beautiful children ages four and eighteen months old. She chose to omit identifying information regarding her son and his specific diagnosis because of her son’s young age. She feels that he should have some informed consent when sharing his story.)
Please help me bring attention to this cause by sponsoring my friends and I, MAMAS AGAINST TUMOURS, in the Spring Sprint. DONATE HERE!
The Brain Tumour Foundation of Canada supports many positive programs in our community including community awareness, support groups, research and information sharing. Lets fight together to support those like my son who are impacted by brain tumours, so they don’t have to fight alone.

thanks for sharing, mama. it means so much to me that this story is here, maybe it will provide support and inspiration to other’s out there.


Thank you for sharing this story! What a brave little boy!
kiitos, sara! this little boy is tremendously brave, you are right. he is also so much more than this short post tells. he is silly and a great big brother and a dude who loves to play hard!
What a moving story. I hope you get a lot of donations for your cause. Brain tumors do suck. I’ll pass this along and see if I can help.
thanks, lillian! i too hope we get lots of donations, it’s such an important cause! i appreciate you sharing this story and the message that BRAIN TUMOURS SUCK!
Saying prayers for the family. My mom had a brain tumor in grade school. She tells stories about it, especially how she would fall asleep in class and the teacher would scold her for not going to bed early enough. This of course was not the cause and thankfully she was able to be operated on and is is now 72! Education and bringing attention to this is a wonderful thing. Rooting for the little one!! Sounds very spunky and strong!
so glad to hear your mum survived, winnie!
and yes,this wee fella is VERY spunky and a master comedian! thank-you for your support.
