In Nov 2012 Tania’s life completely changed when her son Zachary was diagnosed with Non Hodgkins Lymphoma. After countless trips to Vancouver for treatment Zachary succumbed to his disease in May 2014. After her son’s passing she realized that the community needed more services to help with bereaved families during the grieving process. In connection with Island Kids Cancer she became the voice of the bereaved bringing a different layer of understanding to the Oncology journey. She is now the Family Navigator and feels privileged to work one on one with IKCA families helping them navigate through their own personal experiences right from diagnosis.

Tania comes to Island Kids Cancer Association with over 30 years of experience in the Medical and Administrative field, combined with her life experiences she is able to provide support and resources for these families on a more personal level.
