Special places on the web about Children w/Cancer and their families. Some of these children are from our area here in Tampa and some from other surrounding areas. Please show your support in whatever manner possible. It's a very heart breaking and challenging ordeal they have to go through. And these small children are little soldiers thrown into a war and battle they didn't ask for and their odds of surviving are slim, yet they never give up and neither do the ones who love them. I hope you will check out their web sites.

- Childhood cancer is the number one disease killer in children.
- Neuroblastoma is the most common cancer in infancy.
- Neuroblastoma is the most common extra cranial solid tumor cancer in children.
- Every 16 hours a child with neuroblastoma dies.
- There is no known cure for neuroblastoma.
- Nearly 70% of those children first diagnosed, have disease that has already
metastasized or spread to other parts of the body. When disease has spread
at diagnosis and a child is over the age of 2 there is less than a 30%
chance of survival.
- Childhood cancer is the leading cause of death by disease in the US and it
kills more children per year than cystic fibrosis, muscular dystrophy,
asthma and AIDS combined.
- There is NO direct government funded research into this Neuroblastoma and
drug companies only fund research into diseases that will make profitable returns for their share holders. Neuroblastoma is not one of those diseases!
