Mother inspired activist urges funding for childhood cancer research
Judi O Grady volunteers with Cure Search a coalition of the National Childhood Cancer Foundation and the Children's Oncology Group to lobby Congress for more NIH support for childhood cancer. About 30 campaigners push for targeted allocations with a $2.375 million award this year. O Grady aims to return to Washington in June and visit KU Hospital while keeping Brooke's memory alive.
