Fox News
Former “American Idol” contestant Avalon Young is asking her fans for donations to help her pay for brain cancer treatment.
According to the campaign, Young underwent a 16-hour surgery on Feb. 26 to remove "a tumor the size of peach" in her brain. However, doctors say she’ll need a second surgery to remove trace amounts of the tumor left in her brain as well as weeks of radiation and chemotherapy treatment. "Avalon has minimal insurance, is an independent artist, and self-supporting singer/songwriter. We hope to help her with some of the financial burden as a result of these medical expenses," the page reads.
