Supporting Parents When Their Child Has a Cancer Diagnosis

I spoke with Ellie, a social worker in pediatric oncology, about the importance of supporting the caregivers when their child has been diagnosed with and is being treated for cancer. This is such a terrifying and overwhelming time for the child and their family and support is so important. Ellie provides direct support to parents as well as staying on top of what other resources are available to them. We also talk about how you can support friends and family who are on this journey so they feel less alone.
