I am sure that the democrats who refused to stand and applaud this young man for his bravery in fighting cancer will be glad to hear this news.

For the rest of us normal folks not on the left we will keep this survivor in our prayers and hope he makes it through this.

A 13-year-old boy sworn in by the Secret Service after inspiring President Donald Trump with his fight against incurable brain cancer, was recently diagnosed with three additional tumors.

The White House said Friday that Devarjaye "DJ" Daniel's father, Theodis, revealed his son has three new tumors.

"We’re lifting up Agent DJ Daniel in prayer after his dad, Theodis, shared that DJ is now facing three new tumors," the White House wrote in an X post.

What are you talking about? Are you seriously so poisoned by hyper-partisanship that you think Democrats will be glad to hear that a 13 year old boy has cancerous tumors?
Good Lord. Thank God I don't live in your world. What a dark, evil place you've chosen.

I smell a Russian bot.

Poor kid. Ditto re his family.
 
Well, he likes Trump so, he must deserve it. They will be secretly smiling behind their monitors while they type out how sad they are for him.
Gawd, you too?
What's wrong with you people? Do you create evil, dystopian fantasies while you sit on the shitter and decide that's where you want to live?
What a pathetic, crippled way to find smug satisfaction

Um, we're not the ones jumping all over cancer patients accusing them of lying and hiding shit and being incapable of working and saying a family member should be arrested for not preventing the spread of the cancer.

We all will die sometimes.

Who was it that just said everybody dies? I can't remember her name.

Anyway, I'm pretty sure 99.9% of us here don't feel that way -- because it's ****ing disgusting. God bless this poor young man, cancer is horrible.

"I am sure that the democrats who refused to stand and applaud this young man for his bravery in fighting cancer will be glad to hear this news."


That you can imagine this indicates you've no experience with the suffering and hardship endured by those who have cancer (and their families/friends). You've been extremely lucky in this regard.

And let us hope karma was listening.
 
Brain and spinal cancer, 13 brain surgeries.

Now, 3 more tumors (sites undisclosed).

I truly hope research into pediatric cancers / brain and spinal tumors has not been adversely affected in the last months.
Research might be scaled back at Harvard.
 
Research might be scaled back at Harvard.

...Below is an overview, according to Harvard’s lawsuit, of how eight different fields of research could be affected by the billions in lost funding.

Cancer research

The university is affiliated with many of the medical facilities that have made Boston a global hub of health care and medical research.

Among them are the Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston Children’s Hospital, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Brigham and Women’s Hospital and the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute.

According to its lawsuit, the university’s cancer research includes:

“Identifying mechanisms that drive disease development at all stages, including tumor metastasis”

“Developing new therapeutic approaches with the goal of preventing, targeting and suppressing cancer at every stage”

“Mapping the metabolic signaling pathways that drive the association of cancer with other diseases, to restore proper cellular function and enhance prevention.”

“Developing a new machine learning method to model the behavior of all 25,000 human genes as they respond to high-intensity treatments like chemotherapy, which the National Cancer Institute cited as an advancement in basic cancer research that will lay the groundwork for future clinical breakthroughs.”...

You think this because this is how you would respond.

Every right wing accusation is a confession.

The conservative position is that we should end all research into curing these horrible cancers, and that "everyone dies."
 
WASHINGTON — DJ Daniel, the Pearland boy who has been sworn in as an honorary member of more than 1,300 law enforcement agencies across the country, is faced with a new health battle.​
DJ's father, Theodis, said his son has three new tumors.​
"Just winging it day by day. He does have three new tumors. It's rough. There isn't a class that can teach you how to deal with it. You're hearing that your child has a nasty disease," he said.​
...​
"From 2018, they said I only had five months to live. Look at me now, I'm still living, but the craziest part is I'm 13 years old and I had 13 brain surgeries. That's how many times my personality has changed. Every time I went in there, over 13 times, my dad has to relearn me," DJ said when he was named the Honorary Assistant Chief of the Kemah Police Department earlier this year.​


Damn. I can't even imagine how much he's had to endure. What a remarkable little man. Hoping for the best – for him and his loved ones.

And elsewhere:


May 13, 2025

US President Donald Trump's administration cut cancer research funding by 31 percent in the first three months of 2025 compared to the same period last year, according to a Senate report released Tuesday that accuses the White House of waging a "war on science."

The analysis, commissioned by the leftwing Senator Bernie Sanders, found that at least $13.5 billion in health funding had been terminated as of April, including 1,660 grants, while thousands of scientific staff were fired.

Among the hardest hit was the National Cancer Institute, which lost more than $300 million from January to March compared to 2024, driving inflation-adjusted grant funding to its lowest level in over a decade. Its parent agency, the National Institutes of Health, lost $2.7 billion.

"Since January, Trump has launched an unprecedented, illegal and outrageous attack on science and scientists," said Sanders, the ranking member of the Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions (HELP) Committee.

"Trump is not only denying scientific truth but actively seeking to undermine it."...

I don't have to imagine it, I watched it on television when the democrats refused to stand and applaud.

It was the most disgusting thing I have ever witnessed.

Read what I wrote: it looks as if you lack experience dealing with the suffering and hardship endured by those who have cancer and by those who care about them.

I didn't mention watching TV.
