I was diagnosed with a germinoma brain tumor when I was 17 years old. I
took radiation and chemo treatments. The tumor was dissolved and has
not return. The only problem I've had since 1990 is a shunt failure. It
had to be replaced twice in 2000, resulting in me being in a coma for a
week. I made it through all that mess and am feeling great now.

I'll gladly talk to anyone who has questions or just needs to talk
about their experience.
