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.

As the Psychosocial part of Pediatric Cancer becomes more and more relevant , Dr. Anne Kazak will talk about many aspects of this subject which have become standards which need to be met ,as Pediatric patients survivors and their families try to move past their recoveries and lead lives as free from anxiety driven side effects as possible.
Dr. Kazak will address the topics of Post Traumatic Stress Symptoms in patients and their families, Evidence Based Interventions for survivors of pediatric cancer, and the fact that some reports have the percentage of side effects after treatment and after the 5 year so called "cure rate" being as high as 90 percent.
