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.

After noticeably limping during a soccer game in 2019, Maggie Spada's daughter Lucy was diagnosed with Ewings Sarcoma at the age of 9. After going through a very difficult treatment protocol, Lucy is now 5 years removed from this diagnosis and is doing very well. Maggie will talk about Lucy and will also talk about her Little Warriors Foundation, which she and her husband Piero started when they learned about how little money the Federal Government was contributing to Pediatric Cancer, and also learning about the treatments that Lucy and other Ewings Sarcoma patients have to go through, which has not changed in over 40 years.
