Mercy Kids - Adolescent Young Adult Program at the Cardinals Kids Cancer Center

Many cancer diagnoses, such as leukemia and lymphoma, occur in very similar ways in children, adolescents and adults. In order to better treat these young adult patients, Mercy has developed a program specifically for their age group. In many cases the treatment regimens developed by pediatric oncologists have been proven superior both for long-term survival and quality of life. In addition, there are important and unique needs for this age group that are best addressed by an AYA program. For more information, please visit http://bit.ly/MercyKidsAYA.
