What would be a good present for a child cancer patient?

Anything they want: Children diagnosed with life threatening illness need and deserve any distraction from the day-to-day treatment and sickness they must endure. Splurge, but make sure it's age appropriate.

This may depend on: The age of the child and his or her interests. For those children who spend a lot of time in the hospital for their treatments, games and activities may be appreciated. For others, it's a stuffed animal or something to give them support while they're getting therapy. The siblings often get ignored so remembering them can be helpful too.
