Donna G Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 On my local news channel they had a story this evening about a 5 year old child who was celebrating finishing 12 rounds of chemo. This little girl has Pleuropulmonary Blastoma. They said that 30-50 infants and children are diagnosed a year in the USA with this type of lung cancer. They said this little girl would have PT and OT this summer to get stronger and hopefully will start kindergarten this fall. I know several young people that got lung cancer but had no idea that children that young were getting lung cancer. Donna G Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Galli Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 Donna, I didn't know children that young suffered from LC. 12 rounds of chemo is a lot for an adult! Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
