Families
There is no right or wrong way to feel after a diagnosis. Some days will feel manageable, others will not. That is completely natural. Most importantly, give yourself permission to feel whatever you are feeling.

LEGACY
B Positive exists because of Adam his courage, his kindness, and the love he continues to inspire in everything we do. His legacy lives on in every child supported, every family comforted, and every smile created in the hardest of times.
When a child is diagnosed with cancer, everything changes. Not just for them, but for everyone who knows and loves them.
Parents, siblings, grandparents, friends and teachers are all affected in different ways. Many carry worry, fear and uncertainty while trying to stay strong for others.
At B Positive, we understand that this journey can feel isolating. But you are not alone.
There is no right or wrong way to feel after a diagnosis. Some days will feel manageable, others will not. That is completely natural. Most importantly, give yourself permission to feel whatever you are feeling.
More Support
It can be difficult to know what to say or do when someone you care about is going through something like this. Often, the simplest things matter most. Support does not need to be big or perfect. It just needs to be there.
More Support
If your brother or sister has cancer, things might feel very different right now. You might feel worried, confused, angry or upset. You might also feel okay one minute and not okay the next. All of these feelings are completely normal. If things feel overwhelming, you are not expected to deal with it on your own. There are people who want to listen and support you.
