What many people may not understand about childhood cancer is that the devastation reality of the disease goes miles beyond anything physical. In addition to the extreme financial strain of paying for care, Brevard based families must also devote an overwhelming amount of time, travel and money for countless other expenses.
Consider the following truths:
Because there are no pediatric oncologists in Brevard, 100% of our families must travel out of the county in order to seek medical care.
