Resources
Throughout our journey as a cancer family we used the internet for research on Pablo’s condition and treatment to give us background on things to discuss with his doctors, and to calm our nerves in the middle of the night when we needed it.
We’ve put together the list below as a compilation of the resources available online that we know of. It’s meant not only to help other cancer families, but as a tool to educate anyone who wants to learn more about the facts of pediatric cancer and what kind of treatment and options are available.
We’ll keep adding to the list as new resources become known to us.
