What is a vacation?

While many of us plan a week or two away from the day to day work that is our lives, our thoughts go to our pediatric brain and spinal cord tumor patients.  Their constant struggle to survive in the face of their illness makes us wonder what a vacation is like for them.  In some cases, the only real break they get is a day like Making Headway’s Family Fun Day where families get one day of fun, music, swimming, games and gifts in a beautiful garden setting.  For them, vacation lasts only a few hours, but it is one of the most important days of the year.

Here is a petition to light the White House for Pediatric Cancer Awareness Month (September).  Sounds like a great way to shed light on the cause (pun intended).

We appreciate your support

Making Headway Foundation improves the quality of life and healing of children suffering from brain and spinal cord tumors.  We do this by enhancing medical treatment with caring patient support programs and by funding scientific research geared toward better treatments and cure.

We help children and families in the New York, New Jersey and Connecticut regions.  We also fund scientific research for better treatments and a cure.
