このコンテンツについて

 St. Jude Storied Lives brings you intimate conversations with the patients and families of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. It’s hosted by Joel Alsup. He was diagnosed with osteosarcoma, a type of bone cancer, when he was 7 years old. He was treated at St. Jude in the 1980s. Joel now works at ALSAC, the fundraising and awareness organization for St. Jude, on the team that shares stories about patients and their families.

Joel knows how new friendships and second families form at St. Jude – lifelong relationships that become a source of compassion and strength. He also knows that a person’s cancer story is only a part of their entire life story. St. Jude Storied Lives gives you the chance to get to know someone who’s faced difficult moments and learned how to move forward. It’s about what happens after treatment ends and regular life begins again.Copyright St. Jude Podcasts 社会科学

    When Jessica was growing up in the 1980s, her older sister was a patient at St. Jude. Unfortunately, she passed away. And as the years went by, Jessica avoided thinking and talking about her sister’s illness, not wanting to upset her parents. But then in 2020, Jessica returned to St. Jude, this time with her son Charlie.

    That day, they learned Charlie had a type of bone cancer. “It was so shocking,” Jessica says. Charlie started treatment right away, and Jessica stayed with him. Visitation was restricted because of the pandemic, so they got to know St. Jude well. After months of chemotherapy and a surgery, Charlie completed treatment.

    Now Jessica sees St. Jude as a place of hope. “This is like home for us because these people were with us and walked with us in these horrible times.”

    Charlie says St. Jude did more than cure his cancer. “When I survived it, I feel like for my mom and for my grandparents, it was just like a full healing circle.”

    Now Charlie is thinking about his future. He’s interested in becoming a research pathologist. And he got a chance to be a scientist for a day. You can watch a video of Charlie on the TODAY Show, visiting a St. Jude research lab here.

    If anyone knows what it’s like to be a patient at St. Jude, Javon does. He practically grew up there. He was diagnosed with leukemia when he was 2 years old. He went through years of treatment, relapsed twice and had a bone marrow transplant. He didn’t go to a regular school until he was in sixth grade. But through it all, his charismatic personality prevailed.

    Javon’s mom understood what her son was going through. She had been a patient at St. Jude when she was a kid. She had leukemia and also relapsed. A difficult situation became almost too much to bear when Javon’s younger sister was also diagnosed with leukemia while he was in treatment.

    Eventually, through genomic testing, Javon’s family learned they all have a genetic mutation called a PAX5 mutation, which is known to cause a predisposition to B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia and be associated with relapses. Here is more information about PAX5 and other genetic predispositions.

    You can read more about Javon’s mom and sister here. All three are now doing well. And Javon made up for lost time in school. He joined several honor societies and clubs in college, and he performed with the marching band — including an appearance on College GameDay. Javon still enjoys cooking meals he loved during treatment. You can watch him making fried catfish and some of his other favorites here.

    S2E6 | Finding strength in each other, day by day

    Barry has seven kids, and he spent years as a state trooper. But nothing in life prepared him for the months he spent helping his son Luke through cancer treatment. “I just wanted to give him that strength to keep pushing through,” he says. “Let’s get through Monday on Monday. Let’s not worry about seven months from now.”

    When Luke was 14, he started throwing up for no reason. It happened over and over. His parents took him to the pediatrician, to the ER, to specialists. No one could figure it out. His dad Barry knew something was really wrong and pushed for a CT scan. It showed that Luke had a brain tumor. In less than two weeks, he was at St. Jude.

    Luke met the criteria for a study on medulloblastoma at St. Jude, and that’s why he was referred for treatment. You can read more about the study here.

    Luke is now cancer free, and his relationship with his dad is closer than ever. And Luke is grateful for that. “One of the good things is it brought me closer to the man who basically lifted me up through all this,” he says. “And I don't think that's ever gonna go away.”

    You can read more about Luke and see pictures from his days in treatment here.

    And you can watch Luke and Barry trade dad jokes in this video.
