Changing The Course of Childhood Cancer

Approximately 197 Alberta children will be diagnosed with cancer this year. Approximately 20 of those children will not make it. And survival often comes at a price. Despite advances in research, 75 per cent of children who survive cancer live with permanent side effects, which may include but are not limited to, deafness, blindness, growth issues, motor impairments, cognitive difficulties, heart, kidney and fertility issues, psychological, neurological and endocrine disorders. The Kids Cancer Care Foundation of Alberta is a charitable organization that helps families fighting childhood cancer in Alberta. Our programs are uniquely designed to meet the needs of the whole family at each stage of the cancer journey, from diagnosis through treatment and beyond.

Thank you to Sam, Jack, Lydia and Julia's families for sharing each of their childhood cancer journeys. And thank you to Sean Stephenson, Brad Warren and Graeme Judd for producing this video at no cost to the foundation.
