Hope, support, and answers for families facing childhood cancer
The first oncology appointment is a blur for most families. We asked parents and survivors what they wish they'd asked on day one — and turned their answers into a printable checklist you can bring with you.
When a child is diagnosed with cancer, brothers and sisters often become the quiet ones in the background — worried, confused, and unsure if it's okay to say so. Here's how parents and caregivers can spot what siblings are really feeling and help them feel seen again.
When your child's cancer treatment means days or weeks in a hospital room, packing well can make a hard situation a little more manageable. We asked parents who've lived it what they wish they'd packed — and what they'd leave behind.
Ringing the bell is a milestone families dream about — but what comes next can feel surprisingly disorienting. We talk to survivorship clinicians and parents about follow-up care, late effects, sibling healing, and the unexpected growth that can follow treatment.
