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.

Hearing loss is a very well known side effect and long term effect that survivors of Pediatric Cancer must be aware of, especially if they are being treated with Cisplatin during Chemotherapy, which is a very effective medicine in helping to save lives of these children and adolescents . Holly Reames and Eric Meyer, who work at Fennec Pharmaceuticals will talk about the ramifications of this hearing loss, which if it happens, is always permanent.
