JAIRAM FOUNDATION Information

The Jairam Foundation was created to preserve the memory of our son, Jairam Vijay Amuth, who sadly passed away from Glioblastoma Mulitforme (GBM), a highly malignant brain tumor, at the age of 5. When Jairam was initially diagnosed with GBM, we knew very little about the disease. Everything was a learning process for the entire family and with a poor prognosis, and time against us, Jairam had a difficult battle ahead of him. With support from family, friends, and a team of compassionate healthcare providers, Jairam fought the ultimate battle. Given this tragedy and all the lessons we learned, it is our hope to provide assistance for children and their families affected by cancer and support childhood cancer research.
