Go Gray in May for Brain Cancer Awareness

May is Brain Cancer Awareness Month and the 1 year anniversary of the release of the documentary "Getting to The Point".

Watch this free, 30 minute documentary and get a firsthand look at how hospitals and acupuncturists can work together to improve the quality of life and care for even the youngest cancer patients.

Facing complications from brain surgery and upcoming chemotherapy treatments, neurosurgeon Dr. William Loudon suggests to Max and Cade’s parents that they try something outside the box and introduces them to CHOC hospital acupuncturist Ruth McCarty. Over the next few years, acupuncture not only helps ease the fatigue, nausea, and pain so common in cancer recovery, but helps Cade recover from a devastating stroke he suffered after his second brain surgery.
