I'm a parent who has spent more than a decade talking about and living through childhood cancer & leukemia. Ask me anything! r/leukemia May 25, 1pm ET I'm a parent who has spent more than a decade talking about and living through childhood cancer & leukemia. Ask me anything! r/leukemia May 25, 1pm ET

DUE TO REDDIT OUTAGE, WE WILL RESCHEDULE. (Get well soon Reddit!)

[Cross-post r/leukemia] Thursday 4/25: Reddit AMA r/leukemia Hi, I'm a father whose daughter was the first to receive a revolutionary leukemia cure that defied all odds. How this treatment transformed my daughter's life in a matter of days was documented in the film OF MEDICINE AND MIRACLES.

The film follows Oncologist and Breakthrough Prize winner, Dr. Carl June as he takes on the impossible: Finding a cure for cancer. All of June’s research and work are on the line when my 6-year-old Emily, who had run out of options to beat her Leukemia, becomes the first child to enroll in this experimental trial. And we never looked back.

From a parent's point of view, it's of course beyond heartbreaking to see your child in this state however, I'm here to tell other parents and patients in similar situations, that it's critical to educate yourself on cancer and immunotherapy when faced with a diagnosis - and to surround yourself with those on a positive path. The default path is not always the best path for everyone, and while doctors are doing amazing things every day, they're not all interfacing with types of options our medical team thankfully brought to the table.
I'm here to highlight the importance of being informed and proactive in seeking the best treatment options for yourself and your family. Ask Me Anything!
