One truly amazing thing I have seen going through St. Jude Childrens Research Hospital here is the way the kids handle what they are going through. It is not unusual for some of these young ones to spout off their diagnosis using all of the $100,000 words AND have a complete understanding what they are talking about. Humbling to say the least. Of course the staff is focused on the kids and helping them understand.
Kids are amazing when challenged. Kudos to you for answering her questions.
An interesting question if there are any programs for kids in the "adult" CCC's. I'd be interested in that answer too. My kids are all older so it was not as much of an issue.
