Christopher's Haven: A Home For Kids With Cancer When Cancer Hits Home

Season 2 Episode 21 www.buzzsprout.com/603181/6994996

Join me as I sit with Catie, the Family Service Manager from Christopher's Haven. She opens up about her experience as a mother with a child, Kenny, that needed treatment. She discusses the ups and downs and the strain it can put on a family. The most important part of his treatment was radiation. She chose to stay at Christopher's Haven, a short walk from the clinic. Catie was taken back by all they have to offer in contrast to standard communal living with their styled and fully furnished apartments and loft area. She took to it so much she decided to stay but now works directly with the kids as a manager.

Note* Christopher’s Haven is currently looking for a music therapist to zoom with the children. Head to their website and fill out the volunteer form if you are interested.
