Hard to understand about the Hispanic data...legal or illegal, rich or poor, there is NO kid with cancer who will not get great care in this country.

My guess: parents slower to ask for help than other ethnic groups.

I think that’s right—too bad the articledidn’t emphasize that point.

This may not be a popular opinion, but it’s my take that a significant number of hispanic kid’s parents having escaped poverty and sub-standard living conditions in Mexico, the kids may show an outward manifestation as a result.
