    Each cancer journey is different. For Jennings, it’s meant years of treatment, hundreds of highway miles between his home state and St. Jude in Tennessee, and two bone marrow transplants. St. Jude Inspire writer Karina Bland tells the story of Jennings through the eyes of his dad Joel.

    Special Report: Ukraine

    When Russia invaded Ukraine, Natalia Vilcu could hear the airstrikes. She lives in Chișinău, the capital of Moldova. Through the air, the city is less than a hundred miles from Odessa in Ukraine, one of the first places Russian forces hit.
    Natalia is the president of a foundation called Life Without Leukemia. It’s part of an effort called SAFER Ukraine. St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital and ALSAC, its fundraising and awareness organization, have played a coordinating role in that effort, helping to establish an umbrella of support throughout Europe and even into North America.
    St. Jude Inspire podcast host Geoffrey Redick talks with writer Kristina Goetz about Natalia’s experiences helping pediatric cancer patients leave Ukraine to continue treatment.

  • The capital of brave people

    The capital of brave people
    May 10 2022
    When Russia invaded Ukraine, the people who run the Tabletochki Charitable Foundation got to safety and then got back to work. They knew many of the people they serve — Ukrainian kids with cancer — could no longer be treated in their home country. In partnership with St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital and ALSAC, its fundraising and awareness organization, and their global partners, Tabletochki has helped ensure the continued care of more than 1,000 children. Hundreds have gone to hospitals throughout Europe and North America. Some are being treated at St. Jude in Memphis.
    In this episode, Olga Kudinenko and Svitlana Pugach tell us about the work of Tabletochki and their plans for the future, once the war is over.
