Kaushik Trivedi: No Child with Cancer Should Be Left Behind
Kaushik Trivedi, Host of the Drug Diaries Podcast, shared a post on LinkedIn:
” ‘Your child has cancer.’ Five words that change your life forever.
Now imagine hearing those words…
And knowing your child might not survive, not because the disease is untreatable, but because of where you live.
That’s the reality for too many families around the world.
But it doesn’t have to be.
In this episode, I sat down with three extraordinary women who are fighting to change that:
Isabelle Villadary from Foundation S and the My Child Matters program,
Dr. Laila Hessissen, a pediatric oncologist working on the front lines, at GFAOP -Groupe Franco Africain d’Oncologie Pédiatrique
Alejandra Mendez, Vice President at Childhood Cancer International (CCI) and a global advocate giving families a voice.
We spoke about the emotional burden of childhood cancer, the power of advocacy, and the radical importance of family-centered care in low-resource settings.
Their stories will stay with you. Their work is changing lives.
The full episode is now live: link in the comments.
Please watch, share, and help us spread this message.
No child with cancer should be left behind.”
Isabelle Villadary, Head of Childhood Cancer Program at Foundation S – The Sanofi Collective, shared this post, adding:
“No child with cancer should be left behind. I was honored to develop together with Laila Hessissen and Alejandra Mendez how all together we can engage. Join us so that no child with cancer is left behind.”
