The Childhood Brain Tumor Foundation is the newest recipient of choice. The Childhood Brain Tumor foundation has been given permission by Big Dog Foundation and the family of Dash Dunbar to reprint the story that was released in the 1999 Special Holiday magazine.
Most children worry about imaginary monsters that live under their bed.
Children with brain tumors worry about a real monster, the monster that lives in their head. Cancerous brain tumors are devastatingly real for far too many Little Big Dogs and their families. It is this most heartbreaking diagnosis that must demand the most ground breaking of treatments. Then without warning, without reason, Dash was struck down. To the heartbreak of his family, Dash was diagnosed with brain stem cancer.
