Everybody Needs a Brain Tumor

Book excerpt: Everybody Needs a Brain Tumor details the experience of David Koelliker's 8+ year battle with a brain tumor and the many lessons he's learned along the way. According to the American Brain Tumor Association, nearly 80,000 people will be diagnosed with a brain tumor this year. Roughly a third of those are malignant. Every day there are families being told that their mother, father, brother, sister, or child has 3-18 months to live. Your life's 'brain tumor' may be something else. It might be an addiction, a disability, cancer, or losing a close friend or family member. The purpose of this book is to show all that even in life's most difficult challenges, we can find happiness. Through difficult times, we can learn and experience things that we would never have otherwise. It's a book about opportunity and about life, love, and hope.All proceeds will be donated to organizations dedicated to brain tumor research.
