Answer 2

It's an easy question to ask , I would help the homeless person . You see , a child with cancer can get help from reputable doctors , A mother with one hundred children would make the news and everyone would feel sorry for her so many people would help , Again a child with a brain tumor could be helped by brain surgeons . Now for the homeless person , how many of you out there in yahoo land have stopped and really cared about a homeless person ( NOT MANY ) I guarantee it , you see I'm the person that has to remove them from walkways , sidewalks , freeway under crossings you name it I have to evict them feelings have nothing to do with my job , and the reason I remove these people is , People just like you and I call the police , Highway patrol , Sheriffs and tell them to remove such people right away . But I bet these people never came out and offered them a blanket , pillow , or even a sandwich to these homeless people . So my answer my friend is still homeless people . Not to many people care anymore and it's ashamed too.

Answer 3

A child with cancer, because I've seen the absolute hell a parent goes through when that child dies. It is the most helpless feeling in the universe to see your baby suffer for days on end, with the complete and total knowledge that you cannot help stop what is happening . . that you can never ease their suffering . . you can only do the best you can . . and its not enough. So, I would help the child with cancer . . and I do at every chance I get.

It is a gut wrenching feeling when a parent calls you and begs for help. And, I don't have the answers . . but last summer during one of the worst thunder storms we'd had I received a call from a father whose son had multiple abdominal tumors. He was in tears because the doctors had told him that his son was inoperable and that there was nothing more to be done for him. The father was begging me for answers . . and I had none, and no comfort to offer.

Outside the storm raged while I listened with sympathy and helplessness to this man that I really did not even know. I have my own problems. My son, too, has this same cancer and if I knew for sure what to say, what to do, to offer this man some hope for his child . . than I would. And, than I remembered a surgeon . . who was known to take difficult cases and often went the extra distance for these kids. And, I told him to call this surgeon. I didn't know what else to say, but wished him the best.

This father did call this surgeon. The surgeon agreed to operate on this boy, but with no guarantees . . and the boy had two major surgeries, extremely difficult, very, very long surgeries . . each time the surgeon was meticulous, worked tirelessly for longs hours, and removed all visible signs of cancer (second surgery - three tumors the size of baseballs in pelvis, 2-3 smaller ones, removed appendix and more tumors, 2-3 around small and large intestine, and cancerous lympth nodes). He did something that no other surgeon was willing to attempt . . and it worked.

I would have been satisfied just reading about how this child was doing on his caringbridge site, but that night the boy's father called me personally. I cannot express the emotion that swept over me as this man thanked me for pointing out a direction to take. And, I cried. But, I didn't really do anything . . it was the surgeon and this remarkable boy who did all the work. This boy came through his second surgery, he's recovering rapidly, watching football, thanking God, he's tumor free, and is already been given clearance to go home for Christmas.

Cancer cannot be allowed to win.

Answer 4

Children with cancer and that includes the brain tumor one aswell seeing as its cancer too. Too many children/young adults that had been receiving treatment at the cancer centre my daughter go treatment from have died this year. I am so sad for each one and their families, it so emotionally draining.

I just wish there was some way to help, so none of them had to die. Especially days before Christmas.

Answer 5

Why limit yourself? Volunteer at a hospital, you will be reaching the most people in need of help because mom's who have 100 kids are going to end up there sometime with a sick or injured child, you will get the children with cancer, and homeless people need hospitialization from time to time too. .

Answer 6

ok well this is hard, I'd assume the mom knows what shes doing and the kids have dr.s to do that so I would help a homeless person because most of them don't have help and its winter at least all the other people have a warm house. But i would hope all the others got the help they neeeded.

Answer 7

You don't have Uncle listed - But I would help my Uncle. I would like to get all his children together in one place. He would be the STAR of this. He has terminal cancer and won't be here much longer.So, I would definitely help him.And if at all possible I would want to help a child with cancer. I donate to St. Jude's hospital in Memphis, Tn. It is hard reading about all the children there. Thank you for asking your question. God Bless and "Happy Holidays"
