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.

Having a side effect or long term effect after surviving a battle with Pediatric Cancer is not at all surprising. On today's podcast Marta Blanco will talk about her daughter Sofia, who after being diagnosed with Non Hodgkins Lymphoma in 2003 when she was 4 years old, suffered from Heart Failure during her treatment for this form of Pediatric Cancer. Although Sofia had recovered from her Lymphoma battle and managed to have a good quality of life for a number of years, she passed away from this Heart Failure side effect in April of 2012, just one month after her 13th birthday.
