The Cancer Society’s Tromsø office created a children’s version of “To be or not to be”. Inspired by my exhibition, but based on the children’s own stories. The children brought their own photographs and created their personal images, reflecting their own lives. It was a beautiful, yet emotional experience.

When a child opens up, the Cancer Society can more quickly provide the necessary information and support during a difficult phase of life. Five years ago, the law was changed specifically to better support children who are caregivers. Healthcare personnel were given greater responsibility to assess the needs of children for follow-up and information. The goal is to identify the child early and prevent future problems.
