Chomper Buddies

Chomper Buddies, a service that is provided to our patients and their families to help with coping, either with grief or just the changes going on in the family during Cancer treatment. A tool for parents to find out what is bothering their child. The child writes or draws their worries on a piece of paper and feeds it to the Chomper Buddy. They zip up the mouth and the Chomper Buddy chomps their worries away. The parent is then able to open a line of discussion about their child’s fears, worries, and frustrations. The Chomper Buddy becomes the child’s companion and confidant.

H.O.P.E. also has a Special Design to be used for a child who had lost a loved one.

If you have a little worry
and you don’t know what to do,

Let this Chomper be your friend
and he’ll look after you.

Write your worries on some paper,
5 or 6 or just a few,

Put them in the Chomper’s mouth
and let him chomp and chew!

He will eat up all your worries
and the things that make you blue.

And then before you know it,
you will feel as good as new!
