Colección: Childhood Cancer Awareness🎗️

This collection is dedicated to Childhood Cancer Awareness 🎗️ 

As a cancer mom, I know how tough this can be. Navigating this cancer journey, I have met other cancer families and not all have the privilege to still have their children with them today.

We all wish cancer never existed but even more in children. It's a devastating illness and we can only hope one day they will be a cure to end this. 

Show your support and raise awareness by buying anything from this collection. 

Childhood Cancer Facts — United States

• Childhood cancer research is consistently underfunded.
• Each day, 47 children are diagnosed with cancer in the United States, which means more than 17,000 children in the U.S. are diagnosed each year.
• Cancer is the leading cause of death by disease in American children, resulting in the death of approximately 1,800 kids each year.
• There are approximately 500,000 childhood cancer survivors in the United States.
• In the United States, 85% of children diagnosed with cancer are alive at least five years after diagnosis; however this does not mean they are cured or free from long-term side effects.
• Even those who are cured may suffer long-term side effects as a result of the cancer treatments they received. Children who were treated for cancer are twice as likely to suffer chronic health conditions later in life versus children without a history of cancer.
