Since my boy was diagnosed with Leukemia in 2014, close to 1000 other kids in BC have received a cancer diagnosis. As of today I personally know 4 families from “before cancer” who have received the news of a cancer diagnosis for their child. It has to stop! Until a way to stop it has been found, we have to keep striving for safer, more effective ways to minimize the long term effects and deaths. Many kids who do not survive their diagnosis are lost to complications of the “treatment”, not the cancer itself.
That’s why I will not stop raising my voice.
