Breathing relieves pain

Your contribution will allow us to help more boys and girls with cancer

Our activities don´t stop, we continue working with motivation and joy for the well-being of children with cancer and their families.
Today I want to tell you that our volunteer Oscar is developing a full awareness and mindfulness workshop for hospitalized children.
Sophia is one of the girls who has participated in these workshops. She is 12 years old and was diagnosed with osteosarcoma, or bone cancer. Due to the disease, she has suffered severe pain in one of her legs, but thanks to the breathing and relaxation technique taught by Oscar, she has achieved better pain control.
Sophia says Oscar is the "breathing doctor". She didn't know that with such simple techniques she could help reduce the pain.

Her dream now is to leave the hospital soon and return home to play with her little brother in the park.
