The heavy burden on families battling pediatric cancer
For families facing a pediatric cancer diagnosis, the journey is a relentless combination of emotional and financial strain. Parents often become full-time caregivers, leaving their jobs and disrupting family routines, while siblings struggle to cope with the trauma. The financial impact is staggering, with costs for travel, housing, and daily needs adding to the burden. Many families fall into severe debt, while emotional stress can leave families feeling isolated and overwhelmed. These realities highlight the critical need for support that addresses both the mental and economic challenges of pediatric cancer.
Families endure immense psychological stress, with many parents and siblings requiring professional counseling to process the trauma and maintain stability.
50% of families report severe household debt as a direct result of pediatric cancer treatment.
1 in 3 parents leave their job to provide care, and 1 in 4 families lose over 40% of their annual income due to work disruptions.
Essential costs for many families like travel, housing, food, and utilities remain unaffordable, as these are often not covered by insurance.
