About 25% of children in the US aged 2 to 8 years have a chronic health condition

Chronic refers to a health condition that lasts anywhere from three months to a lifetime. Chronic illness entails frequent physician visits and medical leaves requiring the child or adolescent to miss classes and school activities. This can increase the child's loneliness and feeling of being different from other youngsters.
