Have you tried looking it up through NORD???
National Organization for Rare Disorders?? They also list many kinds of cancers and offer alot of information.
I'm very sorry for your ordeal and loss, *hugs*

Sorry to hear it!
I'm sorry to hear that.
My husband died from a tumour on his spine in the neck area 11 years ago. I don't think that brainstem tumours are very common though.
I am so sorry for your loss. My husband died two years ago from brain cancer. When he started having the symptoms it was too late for treatment. Cancer is something that can sneak up on you before you know it.
