Dear Friend,


Did you know that brain tumors are the second most common type of childhood cancer? It is why Brain Tumor Awareness Month is so significant to us and all of those affected by this type of cancer. Find the support you need on the Together by St. Judeβ„’ online resource. 


We also observe the importance of mental health as May marks Mental Health Awareness Month and Children's Mental Health Week. If you or a loved one faces mental health challenges, you are not alone. You can start with these recommendations. 


May is also Oncology Nursing Month. Join us in celebrating the oncology nurses who offer expertise, compassion, and hope to patients and their families.  


Finally, International Clinical Trials Day is May 20. Learn about clinical trials, including steps to enroll and questions to ask the research team. 


This month's featured articles include resources on brain and spinal cord tumors; tips for MRIs without anesthesia; clinical trials; and a touching story from Nicole Johnson, the mother of a medulloblastoma survivor.


With warmth and solidarity,


Daniel Bastardo Blanco, PhD

Manager, Together by St. Judeβ„’
