An Unexpected Fight: A Pediatric Cancer podcast
Our podcast delves into the challenging journey of pediatric cancer, exploring topics such as diagnosis, treatment, fundraising, and addressing common questions. Each episode sheds light on hospital experiences, mental health struggles, and financial hardships. We invite families of pediatric cancer warriors, pediatric oncologists, researchers, representatives from non-profits, and those who have lost children to join us and share their stories. Whether the battle has been won, is ongoing, or ended in loss, we aim to amplify the voices of those affected by pediatric cancer and honor the memories of children who fought bravely.
You can also get involved with the National Pediatric Cancer Foundation through fundraising, volunteering, promoting awareness, or contributing to pediatric cancer research. Visit nationalpcf.org for more information about the foundation
