childhood cancer

Federal data has emerged demonstrating that brain cancer is now the deadliest form of cancer for children and teens. Previously, leukemia was the cancer that was most fatal for children.
According to the data provided by the Centers for Disease Control, in 1999, 1 in 3 children who died of cancer died of leukemia. One in four children with fatal cancer had brain cancer. By 2014, the numbers had reversed. [1]
The report stated:

Six-year-old Erin Cross is now in remission from acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) after she traveled from the United Kingdom to the United States to receive experimental treatment at the Seattle Children’s Hospital.
