Today at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, we celebrated a moment that was truly out of this world. Hayley Arceneaux, St. Jude cancer survivor, physician assistant, and astronaut, unveiled her Inspiration4 spacesuit on the campus that saved her life. The very suit that carried her 366 miles above Earth now stands as a powerful symbol of hope, resilience, and possibility. At just 29, Hayley became the youngest American to orbit Earth, the first pediatric cancer survivor to orbit Earth, and the first astronaut with a prosthetic. Her journey from overcoming osteosarcoma at age 10 to helping raise $250 million for St. Jude through the Inspiration4 mission, continues to inspire us all. The unveiling was filled with excitement and a reminder that dreams launched at St. Jude can reach the stars. 🌟

St. Jude Children's Research Hospital - ALSAC reposted this
St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital has been ranked among the top 10 pediatric cancer hospitals in the United States by U.S. News & World Report for the 18th year in a row. Since the inception of the rankings in 2008, St. Jude has maintained its position as a leader in pediatric oncology, reflecting a sustained commitment to clinical excellence and innovation. The U.S. News evaluation is based on clinical resources, such as bone marrow transplantation services and brain tumor programs, as well as FACT accreditation and patient outcomes. Our comprehensive approach to care and research continues to drive progress in childhood cancer treatment and survivorship. “Eighteen years of recognition reflects the relentless drive of our clinical teams to improve the lives of children with cancer,” said Ellis Neufeld, MD, PhD, EVP and clinical director. “Their compassion, innovation and pursuit of excellence continue to set the standard for pediatric care." St. Jude is the only National Cancer Institute-designated Comprehensive Cancer Center devoted exclusively to children and has received the highest “exceptional” rating in its last three NCI reviews. “By uniting scientists and clinicians, we’re advancing therapies such as immunotherapy and precision medicine to improve survival and long-term outcomes for children everywhere,” said Charles Roberts, MD, PhD, EVP and Cancer Center director. "To be named among the top children’s cancer hospitals every year since the rankings began is a reflection of our people—their brilliance, their heart and their unwavering commitment to our mission,” said James R. Downing, M.D., president and CEO. “In the past year, we’ve made bold strides in science, care and global impact, and we remain focused on finding cures and saving children worldwide.” Learn more: https://ow.ly/w6vu50X7Pey
