Coping With Pediatric Cancer in the Time of COVID

When 13-year old Jelena Colasurdo started experiencing intense headaches and nausea, a brain tumor was the last thing on her and mom Andrea’s minds. Unfortunately, as they soon found out, it was in fact true, and Jelena had to begin treatment, just at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. 

On this week’s episode of the “CURE® Talks Cancer” podcast, Jelena and Andrea join us to talk about what it was like facing cancer and a pandemic at the same time, and how they were excited to partner with St. Baldrick’s to raise money for pediatric cancer research.
