I'm a KKiC by Dr. Robbie

I'm working on a new project to help children with cancer and the families who care for them. I have a workbook written collaboratively with my daughter. The new workbook is called, "I'm a KKiC" on kids kicking cancer. I also have a second workbook to help children and families with resources during the medical journey that includes creating resources to help with what can be intrusive and traumatic medical procedures. Stay tuned for the workbooks to be available to the public.
