A brain tumor diagnosis ripples through every aspect of life. Priorities shift, moments take on new meaning, relationships deepen, and time becomes more precious. The diagnosis is just the beginning, but you can't take your first breath until your team says that there are treatment options. Dr. Low, our Neuro-oncologist and researcher at Tisch Brain Tumor Center, told us at our first appointment that my brain tumor did not have a cure, but what Tisch does have is progress in advancements in treatment strategies that are actively paving the way toward potential solutions in the future. The funds raised at the Angels Among Us event will not only fuel groundbreaking research and cutting-edge clinical trials, but could change the future of brain cancer treatment for me and so many others.

The Preston Robert Tisch Brain Tumor Center at Duke is one of the oldest brain tumor research and clinical programs in the United States. It's a destination for patients seeking
the most advanced treatments. The Center understands how overwhelming a brain tumor diagnosis can be, and with their compassionate staff and researchers, they help over 5,000
patients each year navigate this challenging journey.

Be an angel and join me at the Angels Among Us 5K and Walk for Hope as we work together to find a cure for brain tumors.

Thank you—because of your love and support, I'm here today and we're one step closer to a cure!
