## Resource

A 21-year-old cancer survivor, Conor Harding, is facing a devastating new battle: an incurable brain tumor called glioblastoma, just after four years cancer-free. Already through four leukemia battles, Conor now grapples with a diagnosis that feels hopeless — no cure exists. His family, especially his marathon-running dad Trevor, is rallying for change, raising over $17,000 for research while sounding the alarm on the shocking lack of progress in brain tumor science. With only 4% of patients surviving five years, and treatments unchanged for 20 years, advocates are pushing for $35 million in annual government funding to catch up with other cancers — especially as leukemia survival rates soar thanks to research. This is a fight for lives, for hope, and for the future of young people like Conor. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
