Dainere's Blog

Sup guys, I just hav sth to recount....
Well today I was watching ABC3 and it was BTN Extras and random stuff,
and there was this report on this sweet girl called Dainere.
She had constant chest infections, vomiting and loss of balance. Then, had a frightening diagnosis of Brain Tumour.
On that same night, a terrified and confused Dainere was rushed from Canberra to Sydney to perform an emergency surgery.
Five days later sth terrible happened: Dainere's tumour was a Medulloblastoma.

A type of brain tumor that tends to occur in children, arise in the cerebellum (in the lower part of the brain), and spread along the spine.
Medulloblastoma is the most common type of primary brain tumor in childhood. It is a type of primitive neuroectodermal tumor (PNET). Medulloblastoma occasionally metastasizes outside the central nervous system, usually to bone.
Surgery and radiotherapy have been the mainstays of treatment. Chemotherapy now also has a place in treatment. Currently, up to half of the children with medulloblastoma are free of the disease 10 years after diagnosis.

And she is writing a book called: You hav to go through a storm to get to a rainbow, which is goin to be launched in 4 days!!!!
She also has a blog that I am followin just to let u guys know and here's the link dainere's blog.
Her blog is bout her jouney and battle through the tumour. And its really sad.
