In this heartwarming and powerful episode of Game Over: c*ncer, hosts Val Solomon and Dana Nichols sit down with Allen Roberson—college student, brain cancer survivor, and current CKc intern. Diagnosed as a teenager with an extremely rare brain tumor, Allen shares his incredible story of resilience, hope, and the unwavering support of his family.  

Through six brain surgeries, 40 radiation treatments, and months of rehab, Allen emerged with a positive spirit that continues to inspire everyone around him. Now interning with Cannonball Kids’ c*ncer Foundation, he’s using his experience to give back, advocate for change, and help create better futures for kids fighting cancer.
