Childhood cancer is one of the most difficult challenges a family can face. Every day, children are diagnosed with cancers such as leukemia, brain tumours, and lymphomas—conditions that demand not only medical treatment but also emotional strength, community support, and awareness.
As an oncologist dedicated to improving cancer care, I want to highlight how early detection and timely treatment can make a profound difference. Many childhood cancers are treatable, and with the right care and support, children can recover and go on to lead healthy, fulfilling lives.
✅ Important Signs Every Parent Should Watch For
- Unexplained weight loss
- Persistent fever not linked to infection
- Excessive tiredness or lethargy
- Unusual bruising or bleeding
- Swelling or lumps in the body
- Bone or joint pain that doesn’t go away
If you notice any of these signs, it’s crucial to consult a healthcare professional without delay. Early diagnosis can significantly improve outcomes.
