📊 Childhood Cancer Fact of the Day: The side effects of chemotherapy in children can be severe, including hair loss, nausea, and increased risk of infections. Long-term effects can include growth problems and cognitive difficulties. This fact highlights the harsh reality our young warriors face. Chemotherapy, while often life-saving, comes at a cost. These brave kids aren't just fighting cancer - they're battling a host of challenging side effects, both now and potentially in the future. #ChildhoodCancerReality #BeyondTheBattle #SupportingWarriors

📊 Childhood Cancer Fact of the Day: Global Impact: Childhood cancer affects children worldwide, with an estimated 400,000 new cases each year. However, the actual number might be higher due to underreporting and lack of access to healthcare in some regions. This sobering statistic reminds us that childhood cancer is a global challenge. It doesn't discriminate by borders, cultures, or economic status. But here's where you come in: By raising awareness, we can push for better reporting worldwide Supporting global initiatives can improve access to healthcare Every donation helps fund research that benefits children everywhere Together, we're not just fighting childhood cancer – we're part of a worldwide movement to protect the futures of all children. #GlobalFight #ChildhoodCancerAwareness #EveryChildMatters

📊 Childhood Cancer Fact of the Day: The average age of a child diagnosed with cancer is eight years old. Let that sink in. At an age when most kids are mastering multiplication tables and trading Pokémon cards, too many are facing the biggest battle of their lives. This is why our work is so crucial. We're fighting to ensure that every child, regardless of age, has access to the best treatments, support, and chance at a full life. #ChildhoodCancerAwareness #KnowledgeIsPower #FightingForKids
