October is Brain Tumour Awareness Month

Starting October 1, 2012, we will celebrate the strength of every Canadian affected by a brain tumour. Every day, 27 Canadians are diagnosed with the disease and every day this month, you will find stories from survivors of all types of brain tumours, of all ages and from all regions of Canada. You will find out about the many ways survivors and families gain strength on the journey. Finally, you will learn about how things are changing and how you can help make a difference.

Sign up for the Brain Tumour Awareness Month email list today to receive each day's story of strength.
