How can you tame a Degu?
This may take a while but it is possible to tame degu. Not all degu can be tamed, so be aware of this. Now, your degu may be a bit fast and if you try to hold them they may try to run away, so i would get a cheap tent from argos or somewhere like that. Make sure to get one that is fully sealed so that your degu cannot escape, hold them in this tent every day and after a while they will get to know you and they will start to get tamer :D

What are some of the causes of brain tumors?
Well there are two types of brain tumors: benign (tumor takes space in the brain and presses against it) or malignant (tumor that spreads and destroys surrounding cells). Like most tumors, the cells in the brain would be mutated and there cell cycle disturbed. These anormal cells will multiply making copies of themselves (by mitosis), therefore they will soon start to take some space. You could have meningioma (tumor of the cells of the meninges), gliomas (most common and serious tumor that spreads), astrocytoma (tumor of the astrocytes in the brain), etc... The beginning of the tumor can really be caused by anything environmental (such as what you eat) or even genetics (any family member had it), but we do not know more than that. For example, in skin cancer, we know one factor can be the sun exposure (because of UV rays which will mutate the skin cells). A good way to prevent brain tumors will be to take anti-oxydants in your died because free radicals (wastes of your brain) can be dangerous to the brain cells.
Does a knock on the head cause a brain tumor?
No, a knock on the head does not directly cause a brain tumor. Brain tumors are typically caused by genetic mutations or abnormal cell growth in the brain. However, head injuries can increase the risk of developing certain types of brain tumors in some cases.
What is the difference between a cyst in the breast and a tumor in the breast?

How do you know how far advanced the brain tumor is?
This is way beyond my knowledge base to give you a full answer, but there are certainly varying grades of a tumor. I'm guessing the best way to tell would be to have a Brain MRI or CT scan. But here is a wealth of information on this subject that will be way more helpful than anything I can contribute. www.cedars-sinai.edu/2998.html
Who first discovered brain cancer?
There is know way to tell who was the first person to have a brain tumor because most tumors went undetected in the days before x-rays and MRIs. In 1884, Mr. Rickman J. Godlee performed the first resection of a brain tumor.
How long has a patient got with an inoperable brain tumor?
Only your oncologist can answer that, he needs to know the rate of growth and the rate of degeneration of health before a time can be given
