Topic: Pediatric brain tumors
How discussed: The Reflections of Grace Foundation is named for 5-year-old Grace Ekis, who died of a rare brain tumor in 2008. Since 2009, the foundation has raised well over $300,000 to support research and the families of children suffering from brain tumors. What resources are available for families? How do they cope?
