September is childhood cancer awareness- in hopes to raise awareness and funding for research I’ve decided to share a fact and a spotlight on a child who has had to become stronger than they should’ve needed to.
Sept 15th: A large follow-up study of pediatric cancer survivors found that almost 10% developed a second cancer (most commonly female breast, thyroid, and bone) over the 30-year period after the initial diagnosis.
