Help and Hope Happen Here
This Podcast is going to be about Pediatric Cancer and the need to keep the awareness of this terrible disease in the public eye. My plan is to be able to interview a wide spectrum of people who all have a passion and a stake in finding a way to make the lives of these Pediatric Cancer Patients easier. I will interview oncologists, nurses, recovered patients, parents who have had to oversee their children's cancer fight, heads of Pediatric Cancer Foundations and Organizations , and others who would like to use this forum to advocate for these children.

Caitlin White's son Grant was 2 years old when he complained of pain from his thumb in November of 2022. This pain was not taken seriously enough by his doctors, one of whom looked at Grant while he was lying on the floor and gasping for breath in the hospital waiting room and said that his "shift was almost over" and he would order him a prescription, which had been the supposed solution heard too many time before by Caitlin. Caitlin then demanded a change in doctors, receiving a new female doctor, and this led to Grant finally being diagnosed properly for Leukemia, and began his treatment almost immediately.
