It's up to you... 90% of children with DIPG cancer are left without options. There is no established treatment and there are no cures. Unlike many other forms of cancer, DIPG children must move from experimental protocol to experimental protocol in the hopes that this is “the one”. But sadly, with every experimental option costing upwards of $250,000 and taking two years to develop, there are not many options. And when you consider that there are less than 100 cases per year, it isn’t economically worthwhile for most drugs to be specifically developed for DIPG. Yet, DIPG may in fact provide the best hope for a cure for all cancers. Unlike other forms of cancers, DIPG affects primarily children who may be able to withstand more drug types and concentrations than most adults. Also, unlike other types of cancer, most victims of DIPG don’t consider the impact of side effects into their decision to pursue treatment. The cure starts here... Help today with a donation to www.thecurestartsnow.org , or show your support at a regional event for CSN. Our goal is the establishment of one protocol per year ($250,000) and we can use all the help we can get.
