    Hey Aika, I am a childhood
    Hey Aika, I am a childhood nph survivor I had it when i was 13 and now I am 22 so i've been cancer free for 8 years. I had chemo and radiation, i'm sure by now your family dicided on some type of treatment and I hope it worked well for your sister and didnt cause her to much pain. If she ever wants to talk to a fellow survivor let me know : )
