My name is Erin Griffin, I'm 13 years old and I have brain cancer It's not fair that parents are losing their children. It's not fair that kids are losing their brothers and sisters. And it makes me sick that if someone did something about it ten years ago that all the kids would be alive today. (singing) The more things change, the more they stay the same. Now don't you hesitate. Girl, put your records on, tell me your favorite song. You go ahead, let your hair down Sapphire and faded jeans I hope you get your dreams, just go ahead, let your hair down. You're gonna find yourself... somehow. There are a few, like: "How I fell out the window" by "I Leaned Over" or "What to wear on your feet", by "Susan Socks". You know Nick had four surgeries all up and in the end there were two tumours that were inoperable. You know unfortunately brain cancer doesn't discriminate and ultimately it rips away the layers of those closets to you. Bit by bit. You know I hope, I don't know when, but in the future, where I will meet a young lady, just like me and she'll tell me that her husband's been diagnosed with brain cancer and as i cringe on the inside, she'll look at me and smile and say it's OK, it's curable. That is truly the future I dream of. It didn't happen for us. But ultimately I wouldn't want anybody to suffer the heartache we've suffered. I'm Jacob Walker and this is my story You take it all on board and you learn from every experience that you undertake, but you use things like this as a real opportunity, to improve and to change your tact and do something different. You only get one crack at life so when things like this come along maybe it's meant for a reason, maybe it's meant to to tell me something.
