I'm 44 years old and I have been through so much since the age of 7 being back and fourth in the children hospital and beating cancer. Cancer is an illness that people think of as the death illness. I was glad to have someone in my life that made me laugh and have fun with despite my ordeal. I've learned to walk and made it through this. Yes I've seen the worse side of it and people unless you know as a cancer patient you don't know what someone is feeling on the inside. Sometimes the only thing a person needs is a feeling of love and laughter instead of remorse and guilt and friends and family that only see the down side of it. They want their lives to be normal despite cancer. To the creators of this show great job. Having a great friend through this is great someone whose their to make you laugh when you want to cry someone whose there when you want to give up. So once again if you don't have it you shouldn't comment negative on this. Until you live the life you don't know anything.

The show definitely has it moments. The jokes are predictive and sometimes a little "childish" but it is a kids/teenshow after all. You could easily catch something similar on Nickelodeon or Disney Channel but i did find myself enjoying the show after a few episodes. The acting isn't bad, the actors do their job very well. I would say: give this show a try on a lazy Sunday when you're caught up with all your other tv shows. You might just like it, who knows?

Fantastic family show, good mixed of silly humour with empathy for a variety of struggles younger people can face particularly around illness. Great themes explored as well as good friendships modelled. Nice and clean as well as hilarious and entertaining. Just waiting for the next season now!

This is a fantastic show for kids- better than Disney because the kids aren't disrespectful and rude to adults. It shows great friendships and the challenges of dealing with a disease. It is not realistic - it is not a documentary... but as a mom of a child who has significant health issues, I appreciated the way the girls deal with those challenges and found myself wishing the hospitals and doctors acted a bit more like the people on the show and tried to make awful stays more fun and interactive. It is a NICE show and they're aren't many of those around anymore. TV can take you out of your sad or depressing trials and this does exactly that.

The show has its moments. The actors are great.

But as someone who knew a cancer patient, it left some realistic elements out.

Like fatigue to the point of being bed ridden. Memory loss. Meeting others that were like herself. I understand that this is suppose to be from a teens POV but even then a real opinion would have been great to have to base the show off of.

I'm hoping that the episodes get better.
