Celebrating hope, Angels Among Us supports research and finding a cure for brain tumors.

Through Angels Among Us, funds raised can be quickly delivered where they are needed most in the fight against brain cancer. Since its founding in 1994, over $10 million dollars has been donated to The Preston Robert Tisch Brain Tumor Center at Duke from Angels Among Us. Your support of this event will help us continue to lead the world in the development of new therapies, quality of life initiatives and innovative treatment techniques.

This week is Invisible Disabilities Week. Many brain tumor survivors live with invisible disabilities, including vision and hearing loss, chronic fatigue, balance issues, and cognitive or behavioral changes. Just because you can’t see someone’s struggle doesn’t mean it isn’t there. Raising awareness builds understanding, compassion, and support for those navigating life after a brain tumor diagnosis. Let’s make the invisible visible. Have you or a loved one experienced an invisible disability? Share your story - your voice could help someone feel seen, understood, and less alone.

Cancer affects more than the person receiving treatment. It can affect the entire family.

At the Preston Robert Tisch Brain Tumor Center at Duke, patients and families can also connect with supportive services available across Duke Cancer Center, including clinical social work, child and adolescent life services, psychology and psychiatry, family counseling, palliative care, support groups, and other resources designed to address the emotional and practical impact of cancer.

For families with children or teens, Duke’s certified child and adolescent life specialists can help them understand and cope with a parent or caregiver’s cancer diagnosis through age-appropriate education, communication support, and coping strategies.

Care doesn’t stop with treating the tumor. Supporting the people and relationships surrounding each patient is part of comprehensive cancer care at Duke.

Duke’s Supportive Care and Survivorship Center brings many of these services together for patients and families.
