Sunday, Oct. 16, marked the 13th annual Walk Ahead for a Brain Tumor Cure 2k/5k walk/run at Sawyer Point in downtown Cincinnati. Hundreds of supporters gathered to raise funds for research at the University of Cincinnati Brain Tumor Center at the UC Gardner Neuroscience Institute.
Survivor and UC Health patient Al Williams spoke with Local 12's Kristen Cornett.
His stepdaughter, Stephanie Cox, is a Walk Ahead for a Brain Tumor Cure volunteer.
"We have our survivors wear different color shirts, so, when you see them in the crowd, you realize how this impacts Cincinnati itself. So, just seeing that, it's really, really inspiring," said Cox.
Soma Sengupta, MD, PhD, FRCP, associate director at the UC Brain Tumor Center was interviewed by WCPO's Jessica Hart.
"I come here to support each patient and their family members," Dr. Sengupta said.
