Summary

In this research study the investigators want to learn more about the quality of life before, during and after cancer treatment in patients with central nervous system brain tumors. Often CNS tumors and cancer treatment can cause many physical and emotional problems and side effects. Some of these problems and treatment side effects can cause a change in a patient's qualify of life and overall well-being. Quality of life questionnaires are used to measure well-being and ability to carry out daily activities by asking patients to answer several questions about their physical, emotional, and social well-being.

In this research study we want to find out if patient's answers to these questions change over the course of your treatment. We also want to see if doctors and nurses can use these answers to the questions to help patients feel better and increase their activity during cancer treatment.
