Aaron likes to participate in
B.A.S.E. camp (Believe Achieve Support
Educate). They go on quarterly trips to local area places to get
together and spend a weekend with other children with cancer. You
can find out more about B.A.S.E. at their website.

The American
Cancer Society has a support group for kids called R.O.C.K. camp
(Reach Out to Cancer Kids). It provides children with cancer the opportunity
to forget how their illness makes them feel "Different,"
allowing them to enjoy being a kid.
