My daughter would be 5 today. We would be getting her ready to start "big-girl" school this fall. She would be swimming at the neighborhood pool with her sister. She would probably want to catch Pokemon.
Instead, she's not 5 today. She passed January 16th of last year from neuroblastoma.
We see the outrage in the world over police killings, wars, and politics, when quietly 7 children die every day from childhood cancers. This fall, like every other, athletes will "go pink" to raise awareness of the most well-funded disease in history. Pediatric cancer will receive 4% of funding from the NCI.
@wilbur82 I wish the best for your friend's kid. It's something no parent should ever have to go through and it's for goddamn certain nothing a child should have to go through.
