David Cook's Brother Adam Sadly Dies of Brain Cancer

Chris Houston
According to www.davidcookofficial.com, David Cook announced that his brother Adam Cook has lost his battle to brain cancer. Adam Cook, who was spotlighted on American Idol last season, had been battling the disease for some time. David had even said that it was his brother Adam Cook who had convinced him to even do the show to start with.

The official website is asking for thoughts and prayers and words of encouragement. It even offers a link to YouTube video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lmizGmyc6Hw where you can watch David Cook speak at the Race For Hope. At the 2:30 minute mark David Cook talks about losing his brother Adam Cook to a brain tumor yesterday. But still David had the heart and courage to attend the race and keep raising money for the charity that deeply affected him so personally. I think it's an amazing tribute to his brother Adam Cook that he indeed found a way to show up for the charity event.

The fight against this deadly and horrible disease will not have a better ambassador and someone who will help raise more money. I look forward to watching David Cook in the future helping out in the fight against all kinds of cancer as well as his music, which is terrific.
