There
is a ton of fun stuff on the Internet to
help you better understand your disease
or just play games to pass the time —
here is a brief list. If you find something
you really enjoy, please email us and we
will include it here.
2bMe
www.2bMe.org
A site for
teens with cancer. Very fun, teenage-appropriate
site with great graphics.
Bandaids
and Blackboard
www.lehman.cuny.edu/faculty/jfleitas/bandaides
The site supports
kids, teenagers and adults on dealing with
their medical and emotional issues and going
back to school. Kids are advised on dealing
with teasing, what to expect in the classroom
and how to get back to life. There are many
wonderful thoughts and stories from teens
with medical problems (not necessarily cancer). Joan
Fleitas, Assistant Professor of Nursing
at Fairfield University, provides this site.
Ben’s
Game
www.makewish.org
This very fun
and inspirational game was created by 10
year old Ben and his Make–A-Wish sponsor
at Pixar. Ben’s Game is a skateboard
park where you are the hero and your job
is to kill all the bad cells while keeping
up with your meds at the hospital and good
nutrition and attitude from home.
