"I believe that if you keep saying a word and reminding people that something exists, then it exists. So families and supporters, let's say the word "neuroblastoma" at every opportunity and advocate for support for our cause."

 

-Pat Tallungan

 

"Our family will be forever grateful to Pat Tallungan and the CNCF.  We had the opportunity to visit our first CNCF Parent and Caregiver Conference in 2007, shortly after our son Hans had completed radiation therapy in frontline treatment."                 

-Lara Weberling

"CNCF is an invaluable resource for the neuroblastoma community. Not only do they fund important research aimed at improving outcomes for patients with neuroblastoma, they empower families to learn about this rare disease and the best treatments for their children through their family conferences."   

-Dr. Navin Pinto

"CNCF stands ready to provide the tools and resources necessary to achieve our goal of finding a cure. Hope unites, inspires and defines us! A cure is within reach." 

-Pat Tallungan

“We have made remarkable strides in the treatment of children with neuroblastoma and bringing many more kids into survivorship to lead full long lives.  We could not accomplish this goal without the support of organizations like CNCF, that fund such important research, while also directly providing education and support to families facing this challenging journey.”

-Dr. Araz Marachelian
