5-year-old’s cancer is lesson for many

Last spring, Joel and Anne Zucker got a call from their son’s nursery school teacher. The 5-year-old was unable to go to the bathroom.

They were instructed to go to University Hospital.

“The next thing we knew we had three doctors telling us he had stage 3 cancer,” said Joel Zucker, now 35 weeks into his son Andy’s 39-week chemotherapy odyssey.
