  (0.8510)   My 4-year-old daughter has a brainstem glioma; it is a jelly type. What does that mean? She has just finished 6 weeks of radiation therapy with good results. Is there anything else that can be done?

  (0.7967)   HOW DOES THE RADIATION THERAPY WORK ON A BRAINSTEM GLIOMA TUMOR, CLASSIFIED AS LOW GRADE?

  (0.7967)   What is the life span expectancy for an inoperable brainstem glioma?

  (0.7742)   I have a very dear friend who has a brainstem glioma. Symptoms began at the age of 17 and she was finally diagnosed correctly at the age of 23. She is now 34 and her tumor over the last 6 months has grown. Nearly three weeks ago she had a wafer inserted in the tumor. They apparently cannot remove her tumor because of its position. I just want to know some facts on this type of tumor and surgery. I want to be there for her but I want to know what she is going through in a sense as well.
