- Reliable Information: We ensure all content is fact-checked by medical professionals and based on the latest research to provide accurate, up-to-date guidance.
- Unbiased Support: Our resources aim to educate and empower parents, offering a range of perspectives without promoting specific treatments or facilities.
- Community and Connection: Recognizing the power of shared experiences, we foster a supportive community where families can connect, share stories, and offer mutual support.
Addressing a Vital Need
The internet abounds with information on various health topics, yet there was a notable lack of reliable, age-appropriate resources tailored to terminal illness in young children. Many parents felt overwhelmed, uncertain, and isolated during this incredibly challenging time. TYCTI was created to fill this gap, offering a one-stop destination for evidence-based knowledge, emotional support, and practical guidance.
