Washington, DC - As Childhood Cancer Awareness Month comes to a close, Congressman Van Drew released the following message:

"No child should have to spend their childhood fighting cancer. But every day, children and families across the country are facing treatments, hospital stays, and uncertainty that most of us can hardly imagine," said Congressman Van Drew. "Childhood Cancer Awareness Month is a chance to recognize those kids and the families who are right there beside them. It is also a reminder that we have to keep supporting the research, treatments, and doctors working to give these children the best possible chance. To every child fighting cancer, and every parent, sibling, and loved one going through it with them, we are thinking about you and praying for you. And we are going to keep supporting the doctors, researchers, and families doing everything they can to beat this disease."
