I believe that brain tumor research has grabbed the attention of many individuals for good reasons. It is clear that people can become united all because of this one case, one that is quite sizable to boot. However, it says a lot for individuals when this one trait allows them to come together for the sake of giving support. I believe that this is a condition that is worth funding and I can only hope that more is done in order to help the process along.
Santa Cruz Sentinel posted an article regarding a man name Nick Doan, who had been battling cancer. The thirty-three year old construction worker was diagnosed with glioblastoma two months ago and it's especially serious when you consider that the tumor is located in the part of the brain which controls the usage of language. It's clear that this is a serious case. However, what's even more serious is just how quickly the community united in order to lend a hand to Doan; a uplifting piece of news, to be certain.
The story of this group coming together to help one person is rather uplifting. It shows that people within a certain community can perform strong acts for someone in need. While the story of Doan is great, it definitely opens up the possibility of more actions being taken in order to help awareness become much more prominent. Looking at a variety of examples, what if an organization decided to hold a benefit concert for the sake of raising money to go towards a particular cause?
This is just one idea that has been exercised by organizations like Voices against Brain Cancer and there are many others which are quite fitting, too. After all, brain tumor research is not the kind of subject which should be limited, even in the slightest. What if an athletic event was held, even if it was something as simple as a run? It could definitely bring a sense of enjoyment forth and those who are driven to help the cause will be the ones to lend a hand.
I don't think anyone can disagree with the potential that brain tumor research has, especially when you see how many people support it already. They understand that there are many possibilities which can rise to the surface, each of them worth talking about. Therapies are able to be built, or at least modified, depending on the sorts of news which can be uncovered. In terms of the research in general, though, I believe that there is no such thing as too much attention.
