WISH GRANTING
Our WISH GRANTING program is the heart and soul of our organization. We grant small, personal wishes in order to help take the patient's mind off of their treatment process.
These wishes are more than just gifts. For the patients, they are little glimpses of hope and courage to an otherwise scared and anxious time in their life.
For the parents, seeing their child smile can give them optimism that they might not of had before.
Our PARENT PACKAGE program is designed to help alleviate any distress the parents or caregivers may be feeling during their child's treatment process.
Anxiety is thought to be a reaction to perceptions of threat, while depressive symptoms are regarded as an emotional response to experiences associated with loss. These two aspects of emotional distress all occur more frequently after the disclosure of their child’s diagnosis.
Our PARENT PACKAGES help parents cope with the everyday traumatic distress during their child’s treatment.
