Dear St. Jude Alumni,

Over the years, I've managed to keep up with many of you even after you graduate from our care. Hearing about your personal successes and challenges is one of the highlights of our annual Survivors Day. When you see all the hugging that goes on, it's clear that St. Jude alumni share a special bond. You experienced many of the same things as children...a diagnosis of a life-threatening illness, chemotherapy, radiation, and other types of treatment. And, of course, the experience of growing stronger through it all.

Today, you continue to share many experiences, including the late effects of the treatments that saved your lives. That's why St. Jude is launching a new study. The aim of the study—St. Jude Life—is to help you stay healthy throughout your adult lives. We plan to do so by helping you learn about issues that affect your health and ways to stay on top of them.

Some of you may have already heard about the study or received an invitation to take part in it. Others will hear more when the study team mails you details about St. Jude Life. We know you probably have lots of questions—about the study and about changes to St. Jude. That’s one of the main reasons we’ve launched this website.

Here, we answer some of the most frequently asked questions about the study. If you don’t find an answer to your questions here, please call 1.866.278.5833 and ask for Sheila (extension 3482) or Michelle (extension 6378).

Sincerely,

Melissa Hudson, MD
Principal Investigator
St. Jude Life
