Oregon Health & Science University and Doernbecher Children's Hospital were chosen to be the 2010 Oregon state representative for StoryCorps National Day of Listening. While the country was out shopping on Black Friday, many gathered around the country to share their story of life.
At Doernbecher Children's Hospital, twenty members of the cancer community shared their journey with us. Participants of all age groups included current patients, survivors, family members as well as medical staff. We hope that through those moments of courage, humor, tears, trails, and triumphs of one another's stories that we can inspire those around us and provide hope for a better future.
