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.

Heather Lino's then 3 year old son James was given a double whammy in 2020 when he was first diagnosed with T Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Lymphoma in July, and then roughly one month into his treatment he was diagnosed with a Chromosomal disorder known as Ring 14 Syndrome. This disorder affects 200-250 people around the world. This affliction causes seizures and intellectual disabilities and can have other problems associated with it as well. James is now 8 years old and is living his best life possible.
