Texas Children’s Hospital is going gold for Childhood Cancer Awareness Month

Patients and providers at the Texas Children’s Hospital marched in a very special parade to honor kids and families impacted by pediatric cancer, complete with a four-legged grand marshal and the hospital’s music therapists leading the way.

The parade was a wonderful way for the patients and families to get out of their hospital rooms and have fun.

Patients of all ages enjoyed a party with face-painting and dancing at the culmination of the parade.

The month of September is an opportunity to bring awareness to the importance of childhood cancer research, and physicians and scientists at Texas Children’s Cancer and Hematology Center are working relentlessly to improve the outcome for all patients with the disease – especially for the 4,000 new cancer patients treated at Texas Children’s Hospital each year.
