Allen Shellenberger, drummer for Orange County’s Platinum rock band Lit, was diagnosed with a malignant brain tumor earlier this month.
After biopsy, it was discovered that Shellenberger’s cancer is malignant glioma ‑ a type of primary central nervous system tumor that usually occurs in the brain.
At only 38 years old, he is currently undergoing radiation and chemotherapy treatments with world-renowned neurosurgeons at the Cedars-Sinai Maxine Dunitz Neurosurgical Institute.
This is the same type of cancer Senator Edward M. Kennedy is battling.
On Wednesday, Shellenberger was interviewed for ABC's World News Tonight, shown below.

He should have gone to UCLA. Then he would have a chance. The radiation they do at Cedars will prevent him from enrolling in future Chemo when his tumor comes back. And I am sorry to say, these types of tumors always come back. Why do you think the Senator is consulting with UCLA, I heard from friends of the Senator, Dr. Cloughesy at UCLA is helping the family.
