Children's Hospitalization

Abstract

Sophie is a strong and brave little girl who talks about how she had cancer at a very young age. Sophie takes you on a journey of her time at the hospital, her battle with cancer and a brief period of her life after, in remission. She is excited to share her story with other children to help them be strong and brave as well.

Safia (Sophie) was diagnosed with acute lymphocytic leukemia at the age of 4 and has been in remission since August 1994. Safia always says, "It's because of BC Children's Hospital that I am alive." Safia wrote this book to help other children who are fighting the same battle she was at a young age. Proceeds from this book will be donated to the Michael Cuccione Childhood Cancer Research Program at BC Children's Hospital.
