Here’s what Alicia Rose Victorious Foundation suggests people do to help a teen with cancer:
* Talk about it and listen.
* Let them take things at their own pace.
* Review schoolwork.
* Be there and visit. Look past the physical changes and fight the urge to stay away. Continue your friendship.
* Be the point person to help keep your friend updated on people and relay messages on a regular basis.
Please call your local Senator and inform them of this important week. Ask them to sponsor a bill to make Teen Cancer Awareness Week a national event.
For more information on the wonderful work of the Alicia Rose Victorious Foundation, visit www.arvf.org. The foundation has touched the lives of more than 55,000 critically-ill teens in 85 hospitals in 31 states, with 56 Teen Lounges and the distribution of 8,000 Teen Kits.
