If that was my kid, I'd probably cry all day everyday.
There was a girl in my daughters pep squad that had some kind of cancer tumors on her kidneys. Even that really shook me up and it's not even my kid. But she is likely going to be okay.
Give me cancer any day over my child.

Cook things for the family. Find out what the kid loves and, if you can, make an absolute shite-ton of it and freeze it. Then, when the kid is in the worst of the shite, mom and dad can produce some favorite meal like magic.

Feel so helpless on what to do for the family.
Dont ask the family if there is anything you can do for them, be specific. In other words, don’t ask the family if you can bring them a meal for dinner, ask them if anyone in the family has food allergies/preferences, because you are bringing them dinner Friday night.

My boss lost his eight year old daughter to DPMG (Brain Cancer) a few years ago. I had Leukemia twice as a child and all of my treatments were inpatient (long hospital stays). During my stays, I knew several kids that didn't make it; it's the worst feeling in the world and I barely knew them. While the treatments and months-long hospital stays sucked, the worst is hearing a parent's shriek or bawling their eyes out as their child succumbs to cancer. I even watched one child as he breathed his last (it seemed peaceful to him, but it was everything but for us). There were times that the aura was so horrifying, you can't describe it; you have to experience it to know. Even as an eight year-old child (the first time), I understood. I wondered why I survived and others didn't. This is a really tough subject for me. I can't imagine being a parent losing a child. There's no telling what I would do. I would definitely go through it again if it meant kids didn't have to, and parents didn't have to lose a child. Parents aren't supposed to outlive their kids.
Another friend of mine lost his 10 year-old son to cancer a few years ago. He's completely changed because of this and it is so sad to see. Seriously, frick cancer in the arse.

I will always donate to St. Jude for the rest of my life. I had a cousin who passed from Hodgkin's lymphoma when he was 16. I was only around 7 at the time so I don't remember a whole lot but I do remember the day my parents sat me down and told me he had passed. I will never forget that. But I will always be grateful for what St. Jude did for my cousin and my aunt.

Analplastic
Malignant neoplasms that are composed of undifferentiated cells are said to be anaplastic. Lack of cellular differentiation (or anaplasia) is considered a hallmark of cancer.
