🎗 July is Sarcoma Awareness Month 🎗
Sarcomas are rare—but for too many childhood cancer warriors in the U.S., they are a devastating reality.

💛 Sarcomas make up 15% of childhood cancers, often requiring aggressive treatment plans that include multiple surgeries, high-dose chemo, and radiation.
💛 Osteosarcoma and Ewing sarcoma are two of the most common types seen in kids—both aggressive forms of pediatric cancer.
💛 Many children face lifelong impacts: limb loss, mobility challenges, chronic pain, and PTSD.

At Mama Bears Fighting Childhood Cancer, we stand with every child and family walking the sarcoma road. You are not alone. 💪💛

“A father is neither an anchor to hold us back, nor a sail to take us there, but a guiding light whose love shows us the way.” – Unknown⁣
⁣
This Father’s Day, we honor the dads who have stood as steady lights through the darkest storms of childhood cancer.⁣
⁣
To the fathers who have carried hope, wiped tears, shaved their heads in solidarity, and whispered “I’m right here” through hospital nights—we see you. We thank you. We love you.⁣
⁣
And to the dads who now carry grief alongside their love, we hold space for you today, too.⁣
⁣
With love and honor,
Mama Bears Fighting Childhood Cancer 💛⁣

🕊️ In Loving Memory of Anna Banana 🕊️

Today, we are heartbroken to share that our beloved Anna Banana has gained her angel wings. 💛

Anna was the kind of light that made every room brighter. Her goofy giggles, radiant spirit, and fierce resilience carried her through battle after battle with childhood cancer — all with the unwavering goal of being with her friends, her family, and her classmates. She showed us what it means to fight with grace, to smile through pain, and to love with your whole heart.

To know Anna was to adore her. We are devastated, but we are also forever changed by her joy, her courage, and her kindness.

Please join us in surrounding her mama, Annette, and her entire family with love and prayers during this impossible time.

Rest in peace, sweet girl. You are forever a part of the Mama Bears family. 🐻🎗️

Four years ago, Emilia had a seizure after her very first round of chemo—a moment her mama Cristina will never forget.

Today? She’s rocking her preschool graduation and getting ready for kindergarten!

Every ordinary milestone feels like a miracle when you’re walking through through childhood cancer. This is what resilience looks like. This is what hope becomes when it’s held onto, day by day, moment by moment.

To Cristina, and every cancer parent who marks milestones with both tears and triumph—we see you and we celebrate with you! Go, Emilia, go!

This is what it means to be carried by community.
To not sit alone in the dark.
To be a Mama Bear, and to be held by other Mama Bears.

Carry your family—we’ll carry you

May is Brain Cancer Awareness Month, and today, we honor a true MBFCC warrior—Alex.

For nearly three years, Alex has been bravely battling medulloblastoma. He’s endured four brain surgeries, chemotherapy, and radiation—and he’s still fighting, still smiling, still inspiring everyone who meets him.

Brain cancer needs more research. Kids like Alex deserve more than bravery—they deserve breakthroughs.

This month, we stand with every family navigating the unimaginable. We fight alongside them. And we won’t stop until there’s a cure.

This Nurses Appreciation Week, we honor the real-life superheroes in scrubs.

To every nurse who has held a hand during chemo, offered comfort in the chaos, celebrated good scans, and cried with us during the hardest days—thank you.
You are the heartbeat of every hospital and the hope in every hallway.

From all of us at Mama Bears Fighting Childhood Cancer:
We see you. We need you. We’re endlessly grateful for you.

Tag a nurse who made a difference.
