About This Book
The quiet hum of machines fills the room, mixing with the soft beeping of monitors as doctors look closely at glowing images of tiny bodies. Each picture tells a story of hidden battles inside children’s bodies, where brave young warriors fight invisible foes called tumors. Understanding these images can be the first step toward hope and healing, even when the journey feels overwhelming.
