You talk ... we listen.

Being the parent or carer of a child of young person diagnosed with a brain tumour or other type of cancer is more demanding than the average parenting or carer role.  There are deeper levels of care that a sick child requires which is above the average parenting/caring responsibility. 

When you layer over this, a cancer diagnosis, then the life changing and life saving care needs and dependency of that child rises much much higher.  Sometimes it feels like you are all they have.  There are moments of sheer stretching, testing, tenacity, dexterity, resilience, emotional, psychological, financial and spiritual pressure.  You will need to find the strength and confidence to speak up in order to make your views heard and continuously press in to access the best care for your child, by the best person, at the right time and at the right place. 

If any of the above resonates with you find yourself struggling to balance feelings of doubt, uncertainty, anxiety, disempowerment or feeling disenfranchised.  Then we would love to invite you to our next listen and lounge session.  We are run by people who understand these feelings and have the experience and training to support you whatever your journey.

You Are Never Alone. 

Has a child or young person you know been diagnosed with a brain tumour or cancer?  Do you think their parents, siblings could do with support?  If so, we are so sorry this has happened to someone you know.   

A brain tumour or cancer diagnosis in a child is a devastating life changing event.  We understand that children and their parents might feel uncertain and unprepared to talk about what they are going through.  They might even feel the opposite and seem keen to share their feelings.  If you know a child or family that is struggling with difficult emotions, questions, doubts, or just in need of someone to turn to, we can help.  If you are contemplating, then please contact us to find out more about how we can help.

We can offer friendship, a listening ear, counselling, peer support, information and guidance on lifestyle - diet & nutrition, Special Educational Needs & Disabilities in children, Christian prayers and Dannie's Gift Boxes free. 

This journey will challenge your strength, resolve, faith, resilience and possibly more.  Through the changing experiences, and learnings remember, you do not have to do this alone.

You talk, we listen.
