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.

Karla Gess's daughter Kadence had been limping on her right leg for several weeks, and each time Karla or Kadence's father Jarret would take her to the emergency room, her limping would be dismissed and the only thing that she was told was to take Motrin. Finally a Pediatric Nurse saw Kadence, thought her color seemed off and ordered labs, which led to her diagnosis of Stage 4 Neuroblastoma. Kadence is now 5 years old and has been battling this form of Pediatric Cancer for 17 months with at least one year of treatment on the horizon.
