Martin and Shanna Englert will talk about their son Christian by detailing his journey with a Pediatric Brain Cancer so rare, that originally his doctors did not know how to treat it.

from Help and Hope Happen Here

After being fortunate enough to interview their son Christian back in July of 2024, I was equally fortunate to interview Christian's parents Martin and Shanna who talked form their perspective about their then 15 year old son Christian's battle with a Pediatric Brain cancer known as a Pineal Paranchymal Tumor with Intermediate Differentation. Christian received this diagnosis in 2015 and in the previous 15 years , this diagnosis was given a total of 5 times. Fortunately, as the Englerts will detail, Christian is doing as well as possible, some 10 years after a diagnosis that was thought by doctors to be one that he would not be able to survive.
