Yuckity Yick by Zan Sather Pdf
Forty-three children in the U.S. are diagnosed with cancer every day. That's 43 too many! "We heard the four most frightening words a parent could ever hear: 'Your child has cancer.' Your life literally stops, flips upside down, and your brain is going a million miles an hour with questions that can never truly be answered, and the ones that can don't bring much comfort."-- Mother of a child diagnosed with Leukemia. The author's perspective is unique in that she herself is a cancer survivor. This brings true compassion for the families of children facing the disease-- and a deep connection with the children themselves. It's difficult enough as an adult to face the uncertainties; much less facing them as a child is hard to fathom. That's why the author wrote "Yuckity Yick: It's No Fun Being Sick." This book playfully and sensitively walks children through the scary things they may face during treatment. And it helps kids face their challenges with courage, knowing they are never alone.
