Spring is always magic! Who can resist soft spring air? Or brilliant, fragrant flowers popping out all over? Trees add to the ambiance with their fresh green leaves—that memorable color that fades quickly into the hardier greens of summer. Bees buzz. . . baby birds chirp. . . and children giggle! The magic of spring happens at the Children’s Cancer Hospital at M. D. Anderson Cancer Center, just as it does everywhere. Erica, 4, brought her own menagerie of animals to our photo session so they could also enjoy the warmth and delight of spring. Like all of the pediatric cancer patients, she benefits from your purchase of cards and gifts designed by our pediatric patients! Our goal is to enrich and enliven the days of our young patients with these programs: •Camp A. O. K. for Anderson’s Older Kids •Adolescent and Young Adult Program (AYA) •Child Life Program •Creative Arts Program •In-Hospital Education Program • New Palliative Care Program •Annual Rehabilitation Ski Trip •New Medication Compliance Program •New video, “How Do I Talk to My Children About Cancer” •Camp Star Trails for young patients and their siblings •78 College Scholarships for current and former patients •Candlelighters Childhood Cancer Family Alliance •New “Living With Leukemia” booklet for patients •Adult Bereavement/Memorial Program •Anderson Network Patient Conference, “Living Fully With and Beyond Cancer” •Beauty/Barber Shop where services are provided for all patients • Evening/Weekend Activities for adult and pediatric patients •Pediatric Intensive Care Unit
