My baby brother is 15months old and we were told that he has spinal cancer and has had cancer since he was born. He has under gone 2 Kemo things, but they think it has damaged his hearing. They want to remove the tumor, but it's the size of a baseball and he only weighs 18lbs and the longer it takes the srink the tumor the more it wraps around his spin. Does anyone know anything about this? What are his chances? We are taking donations, but I'm so scaried. He's only a baby.
The chances are always going to be 50/50 for life or death it all depends on the treatment, and the surgeons...Stay positive though, because if you put positive energy into something so bad then chances are you might be able to turn the bad negitive energy into good positive energy. He's so young to be going through something so terrible...be there for him, be strong for him, and most of all give him all the love you can...let him know he has a reason to be strong aswell, dont give up on him. I wish him and your family the best and I hope he can overcome this and make a full recovery. xx
I might sound cruel or evil or a b*stard but ill be frank and truthful
spinal cord cancer is very tough to treat especially since he is 15 months old
his chances of survival are very low... this depends also on where the cancerous cells are... if they are in they grey/white matter of the spinal cord then its near zero and if they do remove it chances are there will be paralysis of the arms or legs
it also depends on the surgeon and how able he is to go through with the operation...
informer yes that was very rude of you to say...im sry you and your family are going thru this I cant imagine my son going thru something so serious...I will pray for your lil brother and you and your parents I pray that god will bless him and heal him completely...
BTW nicksgurl, I am the only one who answered the question...
"Does anyone know anything about this? What are his chances?"
I know it is scary, I know itll hurt... hang in there, I hope they manage to do something...
I'm sorry that your brother has to have something so horribly.. I wish the best for you all, I'm sure with love and support he'll be just fine. <3
im sorry to hear this...I hope the best for him & your family. your in my prayers
