We seize hope as we enter 2010 in the world of DIPG. There are new clinical trials on the horizon and exciting research is on the way. There seem to be more researchers and clinicians focused on DIPG and our children
In the meantime, we shall not forget the brave children who were taken from their families by DIPG in 2009. There are 66 names on this list, and we certainly are not aware of every child who died because of diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma during the last year.
With much hope that this number will be significantly lower in 2010, we honor and remember:

I have never lost a child, yet my heart ached as I read the names. There is no way I could ever know how you all feel. My prayer is that God will grant you His peace.
