About Imaginary Friend Society

A cancer diagnosis is scary for anyone, but for a child it can be even scarier. They're bombarded with terminology and procedures that are intimidating and unfamiliar. Things like radiation, hair loss, blood transfusions, chemotherapy, and surgery, just to name a few. That's where the Imaginary Friend Society comes in. A cast of characters inspired by the imaginations of kids themselves. Through a series of 22 animated short films, the Imaginary Friend Society explains a wide range of complicated cancer topics in a way that kids can understand. Because the more they understand about their treatment, the less scary it will be.
