10 imagesChildren who were destined to experience pain and learned to fight for their lives too early, in some cases, before learning to speak. There is no statistics in Egypt for the number of children suffering from cancer, however, the Children's Cancer Hospital in Cairo, Egypt, known as 57357, receives up to 500 cases on daily basis, between 0 and 18 years old, some use the clinics, some for their one-day chemotherapy, and some who stay for long periods. In Children, each day counts, and due to lake of awareness and difficulty of diagnosis, many cases reach the hospital in a very late stage, some dies at the gate. What causes childhood cancer (mostly leukemia or brain tumor) is not very clear, it could be pollution, smoking parents, bad food, bad habits, or genetics. All those problems exists in Egypt as well as many developing countries in the middle-east and Africa. What matters is whether we are acknowledging the problem and focusing on solving it or not. Obviously the numbers of children with Cancer in Egypt is increasing, but how much, we need statistics, the Children's Cancer hospital in Cairo is a symbol of hope, its the largest hospital in the middle-east that treats children with cancer, and with the planned extension, it will be the largest in the world, on its first year in 2008, the percentage of cured patients was 10%, in 2014, they reached 70%, they treat all children for free, the hospital depends on donations from the people and institutes of Egypt, it treats any child from Africa or the middle-east for free, thats a step towards the solution but thats not enough. Saving a life of a child is more important than anything else in the world, and if hospitals, organisations, and governments focused on health issues and got the support from the people, many lives will be saved. This fight is more important than all the useless political fights, this is a fight that all people regardless of their differences can unite in, a fight for saving lives, a fight that really matters.
