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.

After having difficulty controlling the ball during soccer practice and having her leg give out after that, Mina Carrol's 7 year old daughter Philomena was diagnosed with the most dreaded DIPG. During the so called "Honeymoon" period when Philomena was initially feeling well enough after radiation treatment, she and her family were able to travel to Rome to meet the Pope. Unfortunately Philomena's condition worsened after that and she passed away just 10 months after her diagnosis. Mina will also discuss her STORM THE HEAVENS FUND which is doing everything possible to support others in this DIPG fight.
