This is a monthly gathering for teen and young adult brain tumor survivors. The meeting is from 6:00-7:30 PM at the Marvin Center (George Washington University) 800 21st St, NW Room 404.
We hope the meeting brings together a group who can talk about the things only other brain tumor survivors understand.
We are excited to announce our 4th Annual Texas Hold'em Poker Tournament at Stout in New York City. Registration is $250 per person or $2250 for a table of ten players. $1000 chip bonus for poker players registered by February 14th. If you’re not a poker player you can purchase a general admission ticket for $75 that will include drinks, appetizers, and chips for the blackjack, roulette, and craps table.
Registration begins at 6:30pm and the tournament will start at 7pm.
Stout is located at 133 West 33rd Street (between 6th and 7th Ave).
Life changes after you have a brain tumor. We get it and have created somewhere for people to go to talk about it and get away. The Heads Up Conference is a unique program for brain tumor survivors ages 18 – 30 who are looking for answers and people to talk to who understand them. It is also a place for people to go to challenge themselves and relax in beautiful Montana. While we are there, we talk about careers, family, friends, dating, medical stuff and college issues (you don’t have to be in college or working to go).
Being a teen is fun and tough. Sometimes it is even tougher for teens after a brain tumor. School may be harder? Making friends may be harder. Dealing with changes may be a challenge. Sometimes you may just feel more grown up than the people around you.
