Our impact snippet for November 2022
At MyChild’sCancer we focus on finding life-saving information for kids with cancer, empowering parents and doctors and making treatment options accessible while supporting families as they go through a very difficult process.
Thanks to our dedicated donors, we are able to help more kids: the expert information we’ve provided saved lives and improved the quality of life for many children and their families. We could not have done it without the generosity and support of our donors!
November impact in a glimpse - one of several stories:
A 12 y/o boy from Israel treated for brain tumor (Medulloblastoma) experienced a relapse. A member on our Brain Tumor Committee of world experts offered a treatment plan (Originally from Vienna) that apparently was never done before in Israel. It is a relatively new trial treatment that has good results in extending life expectancy. Since the child's doctors in Israel weren’t familiar with this treatment, our committee expert personally guided the Child's doctors on how to perform the treatment. In addition, he connected the Israeli hospital with the head of the new Protocol and made sure that the child will receive it as a compassionate treatment (at no cost) as soon as possible!
