In this episode, This Girl invites a mom on a mission, Marta Blanco, founder of Sofia’s Hope. Daisy and Marta have a heartfelt and informative conversation about fighting childhood cancer with HOPE!  Marta shares her personal story of losing her daughter Sofia not to cancer but as a consequence of treatments.

She created Sofia’s Hope in her honor. Her organization recognizes that in the fight against childhood cancer there has to be two simultaneous approaches. Research funding which will have a long term impact and the development of patient and family programsthat support those going through the journey!
