“Brain tumours kill more children and adults under the age of 40 than any other cancer. Every penny counts at the time of research and cure. Just one percent of the money raised for cancer research is allocated to this devastating disease. Our son was diagnosed in 2017. During our long stay in UK, I came across a poster advertising this same event and it was then, I vowed my support to this charity to help raise awareness and funds to help fight this disease,” said Ms Rodriguez.
