Beyond the Cure Regional Conferences

Our Beyond the Cure Survivorship Program is proud to provide support to hospitals across the country that host survivorship conferences. For 20 years, these conferences have educated childhood cancer survivors, caregivers, and their families on the many issues regarding survivorship and how to navigate life post-cancer treatment.

Encouraging School Involvement to Combat Isolation

Isolation is one of the biggest challenges that come with cancer treatment, and it can have serious physical and emotional effects on a child. Social opportunities become limited and even dangerous when a child is undergoing treatment. Children are often placed “in a bubble” to reduce exposure, but this proactive method comes with its own potential risks.

Fighting Boredom During Isolation

Boredom isn’t the first thing parents think about after a cancer diagnosis—but as treatment continues, it often becomes a real challenge for kids and families. During the winter months, that feeling can be amplified by time spent indoors and limited social opportunities. Within are a few ideas to help your child stay active, engaged, and connected at home or during long hospital stays.

Meet Montana!

“It is adversity that causes us to rise like a phoenix out of the ashes and to be reborn into something beautiful.”

Meet Allison!

Just one month after graduating from high school, two days into a brand-new job, and in the middle of her sister’s wedding celebration, she received life-shattering news: she was diagnosed with leukemia.
