Financial Help for People with Brain Tumors

B'SD

5 Shvat, 5779

Dr Musella's organization (the Musella Brain Tumor Research Foundation) is superb and his own upbeat remark is among the back-cover praises for the EMPOWER Yourself to Cope with a Medical Challenge book.

Check out the Just Announced good news for people who need financial help with brain tumor treatment!


Our copayment assistance program is probably going to reopen soon!

  • Tiffani Rockwell Fomera What program is that?
  • Melanie Metcalf Lovell Tiffani, it helps people to purchase medicine when they might not otherwise be able to due to high insurance co-pays/deductibles. This is the program I have always contributed to, because as necessary as animal testing may be, as a vegan I am not comfortable funding testing on animals. This is a win-win....I can contribute to this program and help those fighting GBMs without funding animal research.

  • Al Musella As to animal research, for those of you who do not want to fund animal research, you can tell us to only use the donation for human research. We gave a $1 million grant which will only be used to treat pediatric brain tumors - the grant is 4 payments of $250,000 over 3 years. We are saving up for the next payment. You can always donate to that!

There's more helpful information for people with other medical and mental health issues in the Global Resources section of

Digital Devices Endanger Children!

B'SD

21 Cheshvan, 5779

I've written about the problem as a medical/mental health journalist. You need to know how to be protective of your health and that of youngsters too naive or too lacking in self-control when it comes to digital device usage. Too much of it endangers health, especially that of developing brains!






I've long known about digital dangers. The Global Resources section of the FIRST EDITION Of EMPOWER Yourself to Cope with a Medical Challenge listed book titles on that topic. That's why I have a landline and prefer to limit my use of a cellphone.


It's a sad statement of affairs when parents are too busy to mind their children. There is such richness to enjoy when you teach a child how to be sociable, how to master desired skills, how to love. The consequences of letting a fussy, sad, or frightened child play with a digital device when they need a parent's warm hug or assuring words is so damn damaging. If an autistic, ADD or ADHD child is pacified with devices, it destroys so much potential for their developing character.

YES, I sympathize with an adult's need to chill, to let the toy take over while mom or dad rest and recharge their own batteries. But that is a far cry from using the digital device as a pet sitter one day after the other. Children are human beings, with a 20-year lifespan to grow up. Parents are supposed to use that time building relationships, teaching the skills, etc.

Please Pray for a Young Man to Overcome His Medical Challenge

B'SD

21 Menachem Av, 5775

I'm saddened by the news below, provided by a real life acquaintance:

Our dear 16 year old cousin/nephew has been battling cancer his entire young life. He was first diagnosed with Leukemia at age 3 in 2002 and was pronounced cancer free in 2008. Since that time he has been enjoying all the childhood fun that he had put on hold all those years. Unfortunately, just this week Ben has been diagnosed with Glioblastoma, a rare form of brain cancer.
The prognosis is grim, but we believe that with prayers and good deeds in Ben's honor that he will bea...
