| Young author helps sick kids |
 |
Aidan Ward is just 12 years old. Eighteen months ago Aidan
was diagnosed with Leukemia and has had to undergo treatment,
which included chemotherapy. A year ago, Aidan joined
the Ronald McDonald Learning Program to ensure his schoolwork
didn’t fall behind. Aidan used his time in the program
to write a book. With the guidance of his Learning Program
tutor and mentor Lauren, Aidan wrote a book titled The
A-Z of Chemotherapy. Aidan hopes the book will help other
children undergoing chemotherapy. “I wanted
to help other kids get through what I went through and
also to tell them a few things they might expect from
their treatment,” he said.
The book is currently being revised by a publisher and
is hoped to be published next year.
The Ronald McDonald Learning Program is an educational
catch up program designed to help children catch up with
their schooling after a serious illness. |
