Dear Friend,


As the holiday season approaches, we keep those facing difficult times in our thoughts, especially families with children undergoing treatment or grieving. We extend our heartfelt support to all patients, parents, caregivers, and survivors. Your courage and strength are inspiring.


Sharing stories is a powerful way to connect with others. This month, you can read how music and art therapy, writing poems, and journaling have helped patients and families find peace and comfort. You can also listen to how one family managed the holidays with a child in the hospital by creating new memories and embracing simple joys.


This is also the season of giving. Discover practical gift suggestions for children of all ages to promote healthy development.


As we gather with loved ones, let's renew our commitment to nurturing strength and hope for all children and families.


With heartfelt wishes and support,


Daniel Bastardo Blanco, PhD 

Manager,β€―Together by St. Judeβ„’
