I just finished my last CancerGrace Booth Shift at ASCO. The common themes throughout the advocate groups were how to reach more people and how to partner with one another so resources aren't wasted. Personally, I have a lot of questions and few answers. That's where the younger, stronger, and brighter minds come in thankfully Grace is full of those.
There was one organization that really stood out. It was unlike any I've seen before. It's called Pickles, kids supporting kids. Pickles Group’s mission is to provide free peer-to-peer support and resources for kids and teens impacted by their parent or guardian’s cancer. If you know someone with a cancer diagnosis who have children between the ages of 6 and 18 please check out their site.
I will be sharing this one at every opportunity.
