Why Do People Get Cancer?
Leave a reviewA cancer diagnosis can be scary, and for kids it can be bewildering. We’ve gotten some questions about cancer and in this episode we answer them with Dr. Donald Small, director of pediatric oncology at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine. We answer how people get sick when it’s not caused by germs, how people get cancer, and why cancer “does not have a cure.” There’s nothing graphic or scary in this episode, but adults may want to give this episode a listen if cancer is something your littles have been dealing with.
