Fashion Funds the Cure: Charlotte 2022
Today Thomas had the privilege of being a Feature Kid in the Fashion Funds the Cure show hosted by the National Pediatric Cancer Foundation. This organization has a special focus of collaborating with about 24 hospitals across the country to fast track research on less toxic, more targeted treatments specifically for children.While we know it's not safe to give even an adult's cold medication to a child, we live in a world where so little government funding is put toward pediatric cancer that most cancer treatments for children are actually just drugs for adult bodies.

I had those kids. Of course. Those are the kids of every mom who works full-time, but the mom doesn’t realize how awful they are because moms who work full-time are the most likely...
