The good news is that children and adolescents tend to do the best with ATG, i.e., have the easiest time and the best results. Sometimes the biggest challenge is keeping a 13-year-old comfortable, optimistic, and not bored when they have to undergo treatment. Kids need to feel protected by their parents and they benefit greatly if they can stay connected with their friends and extended family in person, by phone or texting, or with social networking.
