Toronto's SickKids to receive several pediatric cancer patients from Ukraine

The Hospital For Sick Children in Toronto is expecting to receive several pediatric cancer patients from Ukraine in the next few days.

In a news release issued Monday, SickKids said it is set to receive "fewer than five" children with cancer within the next 36 to 48 hours.

The hospital said it is not able to provide the specific number of patients or any further details "to respect the privacy of these children and their families."
