When
When our daughter was diagnosed with cancer at the age of 14 months old, we had so many questions. Why did this happen? How could this have been prevented? Why aren't there safer treatments? All the answers to these questions were..."we don't know, there's not enough research to give us those answers". "We don't know". Yet, there are almost 800 new cases of childhood cancer around the world each day. This adds up to an estimated 300,000 new cases of cancer that affect children under the age of 20 each year worldwide. And yet, childhood cancer is vastly and consistently underfunded with less than 4% of the federal government's total funding for cancer research dedicated to childhood cancers each year.
We are taking a stand against childhood cancer because we have seen firsthand the devastation childhood cancer causes families. The money you donate has the potential to make a huge difference in the lives of kids with cancer (and their families). All proceeds of our stand will go towards funding research for Neuroblastoma, the cancer that our sweet baby, Devyn, was diagnosed with earlier this year. Proceeds also go towards supporting cancer families. We are taking a stand because children deserve a life where they can just be kids and not spend their life ill and stuck in a hospital room. Thank you for your support!
