Dr. Meredith Irwin, who looked after Darrel while he was at SickKids.
While both the Canadian Cancer Society and the American Cancer Society do only send a very small portion of the funds raised towards researching the various forms of childhood cancer, there are exceptions. Last year, the Canadian Cancer Society gave a substantial grant for neuroblastoma research at the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto. The team is led by Dr. Meredith Irwin, who looked after Darrel while he was at SickKids.
