¿Sabías? Cada año en los EE. UU., aproximadamente 15,780 niños entre las edades de nacimiento y 19 años son diagnosticados con cáncer. De eso, más de 800 padres en todo el norte de California escucharán las palabras "Su hijo tiene cáncer".
El cáncer infantil ocurre con regularidad, al azar y no discrimina por grupo étnico, clase socioeconómica o región geográfica.
Es por eso que cada septiembre nos tomamos el tiempo para crear conciencia y difundir información sobre el cáncer infantil.
Thanks to your support, a family preparing for a four-month stay in the Bay Area for a life-saving stem cell transplant now has the essential items they need, including diapers, Visa gift cards, luggage, and clothing. Your kindness allows them to focus entirely on their child’s treatment without the added burden of securing basic necessities.
Today, on National Down Syndrome Day, we recognize that children with Down Syndrome are 10 to 20 times more likely to develop leukemia. This unique connection between childhood cancer and Down Syndrome—a reality for many families, including our beloved Keaton’s Kiddo, Joy.
While the focus is understandably on the child battling cancer, siblings face their own emotional challenges. They may experience feelings of worry, fear, confusion, or even guilt, and it’s important to acknowledge their role and provide support for them as well.
