Psychological Strains and Overcoming Barriers: Childhood Cancer

-025- Jessica Scutt's son was diagnosed with a rare form of kidney cancer. She struggled through the ups and downs of diagnosis. As a mother homeschooling her children, she not only had to find help for herself and her son, Tucker, but her other children as well. Tucker is a fun-loving boy that seemed to be okay before he started to show increasingly strange behavior. Mother's intuition stepped in after reading a Saint Jude's pamphlet asking for donations on one side and listing symptoms of cancer on the other. She pushed her way towards a diagnosis, and thanks to that, her son has successfully completed treatment. As a result of her overcoming cancer as a family, she founded Tucker's Torpedos, which aims at helping other families and children with the strain cancer puts on the family both psychologically and financially.
