• Hometown: St. John's, NL

Some facts about my treatment:

Adam was diagnosed on January 4th, 2007 with Medulloblastoma - a brain tumor, about the size of a kiwi.  Surgery was scheduled for Wednesday, Jan 10th and doctors were able to remove 99% of the tumour. After a month in the hospital, Adam was discharged from the Janeway and he started six weeks of radiation.  Just after his 5th birthday, Adam received 9 rounds of chemotherapy over 13 months. In March 2008, 14 months after he was diagnosed, Adam was deemed cancer free and now only has to go back once a year for an MRI and a checkup with his oncologists.
