Treatments For Childhood Cancer

Hospital Visits From Superheroes

Another uplifting mental health treatment for kids with cancer is with hospital visits from superheroes or other movie characters. Actors and other celebrities will frequently visit hospitals and interact with the children in-character. Others might dress up as superheroes, comic book characters, and other pop culture figures to delight the children.

Superheroes are a particularly popular pick right now. With all of the superhero movies coming out, children want to feel like they can take on the world. Kids get to meet their favorite superhero and receive encouragement and well-wishes from them. Everyone in a hospital is delighted whenever a group of superheroes comes to visit.
