“Thousands of children are diagnosed with pediatric cancer each year,” said Mindy Rosso-Gaemi, Community Manager at Greeting Card Universe. “Over the last 20 years with improvements in diagnosis and treatment, the five year survival rate of pediatric cancer patients has risen dramatically. Still, these children and their families face significant battles.”

It gives them a sense that it’s going to be OK“.
