Sometimes our bodies change-but who we are inside stays the same.
In Deegan's Changes Along the Way, Deegan is learning how to navigate the physical and emotional changes that can happen during medical treatment. His hair may thin or fall out. Food might not taste the same. His teeth may feel different, his body may need more rest, and staying away from germs becomes extra important. Through every change, Deegan discovers something important: he is still Deegan-brave, loved, and strong.
With gentle rhymes, comforting illustrations, and age-appropriate explanations, this story helps children understand changes related to chemotherapy while reassuring them that every feeling they experience is okay. Deegan learns to listen to his body, care for himself, accept support from the people who love him, and recognize that his strength isn't defined by how he looks or how much energy he has that day.
Created for children and families navigating cancer treatment, Deegan's Changes Along the Way can help caregivers begin conversations about hair loss, appetite changes, mouth and dental care, fatigue, infection prevention, emotions, and changing routines. A Parent/Caregiver Guide is also included to help grown-ups support children through these experiences.
A reassuring story about growing, healing, adapting, and remembering that you are still you through every change along the way.
Deegan's Changes Along the Way is part of the Brave Journey Collection, written by Lacey Autumn and illustrated by Deegan Ramkowsky.
