When my baby boy William was diagnosed with Leukaemia, I was lucky that my parents were able to care for my 2 year old daughter while I was in the hospital and that cancer organizations helped cover the costs that insurance didn’t. Government should give more money to entities like these. No parent should have to worry about who will look after their other children, or about lack of money for a home, food or clothing, while fighting for their child's life. William is now as smart, healthy 13 year old.
