“Looking back, I do not know what we would have done without the help of this Aflac policy…it allowed us to focus on recovery instead of worrying about our finances.” – Kim Hastings, MI
The Aflac Cancer and Blood Disorders Center provides a nurturing
environment of hope for children and young adults battling cancer and blood
disorders, as well as their families. At the state-of-the-art facilities, pediatric-
trained staff members provide a unique and comprehensive course of treatment,
both clinically and emotionally, to help children and their families throughout
their journey to recovery. The Aflac Cancer Center is recognized as one of the
top childhood cancer centers by U.S. News & World Report. Pictured, Dr. William
G. Woods, Director of the Aflac Cancer Center, visits with Robert Hart, Darby
Farnsworth, Kenneth Stewart III, Myles Horton and Breanna Campbell. These
five courageous patients reflect only a few of the thousands who count on the
expert care and compassionate staff at the Aflac Cancer Center.
