"KEEP THEM TO YOURSELF", we sure would appreciate it. Someone that would write a comment like that sure needs all the help and prayers they can get.

Statistically speaking, it doesn't happen to that many children. However, let one of those be YOUR child, and suddenly you'll see that even one child suffering is one too many. You just have no idea the horror or chemotherapy on children. It's not just one child, though. Every school day there is an average of 46 children diagnosed with cancer. That's two classrooms' full of children. It is totally unacceptable. coldheart, you are right. Statistically speaking, it doesn’t happen to that many children.
