'Every day, three Australian families hear the words no parent ever wants to hear'
By Georgie Gardner|
Every day, three Australian families hear the words no parent ever wants to hear: "Your child has cancer."
It's a gut-wrenching reality, and one that changes lives in an instant.
The emotional, physical, and financial toll is overwhelming, yet behind every statistic is a story จC a family trying to navigate the unthinkable.?
Kids Cancer Conversations with Georgie Gardner is my new podcast that brings to light the raw and real journey of families navigating one of the most challenging experiences anyone could face.

From the moment of diagnosis to the long and emotional battle that follows, this podcast series gives these families the space to share their experiences and to offer other families จC who may be walking a similar path จC the comfort of knowing they're not alone.
For those who might not know, Redkite is an incredible Australian charity that has been supporting children with cancer and their families for over 40 years.
Whether it's offering emotional support, financial assistance, counselling or educational resources, Redkite steps in during moments of crisis to ensure that no family has to bear this burden in isolation.
Many of the families I've spoken to simply wouldn't have made it through without their help - and it's why I'm passionate about advocating and spreading greater awareness of this cause.

Because at the end of the day, these stories are about more than cancer. They're about love, resilience, and finding hope in the most challenging of circumstances. And I think we could all use a little more of that in our lives.
