Brain tumor medical expenses for Glenn Kirkland
Donation protected
My brother Glenn was born with hydrocephalus. As a child, I don’t remember him ever getting through a complete school year without an extended hospital stay. He has experienced 28 shunt surgeries and one ETV surgery (to drain the fluid buildup in his brain without replacing the shunt). Glenn has lived his life with debilitating headaches, eye problems and partial deafness. In recent years he has endured radiation treatments for brain tumors. He was just hospitalized yet again with multiple brain tumors this weekend. Glenn and his wife Harriet are facing extreme financial stress during this hospital stay, and the many imminent surgeries. Harriett can’t afford to miss work and the hospital is an hour from their home. We are here in an effort to ease some of the financial burden in this extremely difficult time.
