Do you know the most common types of cancer in children?
These are:
- leukemias,
- brain tumours,
- lymphomas, and
- solid tumours such as neuroblastoma and Wilms tumour.
While childhood cancer is rare, it can happen.
When cancer is found early and treatment begins without delay, a child has a far better chance of surviving and growing up healthy.
Brain and other nervous system cancers account for nearly 1 in 7 new childhood cancer cases in the U.S.
For families facing a pediatric brain tumor, questions come quickly. This month, we stand with every child and family and call for better treatments and outcomes. 💛

@chemobrainfog@chemobrainfog , thanks! How can we, as advocates promote access to genomic testing for underserved cancer patients? Great advances in new treatments, hoping it can reach all those in real needs.
