Some sad news to tell you about
I got a call last Friday from Donna Hurlburt informing me that 9-year-old Cameron Brown passed away Thursday night.
I don't know if you recall the story I did about Cameron in December, who had been diagnosed with terminal brain cancer.
I did the article at that time because friends of her mother Roz Jones were organizing a fundraiser.
The women - LInda Gutierrez, Erma Tapscott, Donna Hurlburt, Elizabeth Webster and Angela Cazares - Cameron 's "aunts," all friends of Jones, held a fundraiser in Ontario.
When I went to the home of Gutierrez, I met Cameron, who was like any other 9-year-old. She loved to watch the Disney Channel and was even wearing Hannah Montana attire.
About two years ago, doctors found a mass over a third of Cameron's brain.
Since then Jones, of Chino, had been at the side of her daughter for each one of her five surgeries and the rounds of radiation and chemotherapy.
My condolences to Roz and her extended family during this difficult time.
