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.

Barbara Rios has lived in Puerto Rico for her entire life. On today's podcast Barbara will talk about the nearly 20 years that she has been involved with the American Cancer Society and her work in developing and running many programs for Pediatric Cancer patients and their families in Puerto Rico. Barbara will discuss the difficulties that these patients and families can face because of being far away location wise from the 4 Pediatric Cancer Care hospitals on the Island, but will also discuss some of her successful programs as well as the great individual care that these patients receive.
