When we were in treatment, I was one of those parents who wanted to hear everything about every single paediatric cancer family I could. Not only because I was looking for support, but because these were my new people. This was my new community and I wanted to fully immerse myself into this world because I simply didn’t fit in my old one anymore. One of the ways I was able to dive in was listening to the podcast Help and Hope Happen Here hosted by the most lovely and biggest hearted human, Mark Levine. Mark has immersed himself in the paediatric cancer world for different reasons than most of us have - he is not a cancer parent, but instead a true, full fledged ally to oncology parents and children who is dedicated to raising awareness and sharing our stories. Mark is close to 500 episodes of Help and Hope Happen Here - FIVE HUNDRED! He speaks to families, survivors, organizations, and clinicians connected to paediatric cancer, and he does it with so much care and attention to his guests. I really wanted to speak to Mark to ask him about what HE thinks when he talks to cancer parents, what he takes away, and what he sees and hears after spending hundreds and hundreds of hours in deep and meaningful connection with us. So, let’s dive deep with Mark.
