#ChildhoodCancer has lots of 'Final Fours.' For every 5 kids diagnosed, only 4 (85%) live more than 5 yrs. 100,000 worldwide will die in '24. 'How many kids have to die before we stop calling it 'rare' & start calling it a 'priority.' CAC2 Happy Quail Lisa (Loehr)Spaulding
Imagine a 6 yr. old child who can see & hear, but they have DIPG. It's terminal, before they die, they have no control over arms, legs, swallowing, & more, but they know what's happening & can't communicate. #ChildhoodCancer , #BrainCancer CAC2 Happy Quail Lisa (Loehr)Spaulding
One reason nearly everyone thinks #ChildhoodCancer is 'rare,' is because we don't talk about it enough. Let's talk about it enough to make it a 'priority.' Worldwide over 400,000 children will be diagnosed this year. Don't stop talking about it. CAC2 Happy Quail
The Worldwide #ChildhoodCancer Clock moves quickly. 3 kids are diagnosed every 4 minutes and we still call that 'rare.' We need to stop calling it rare and begin to call it a 'priority.' CAC2 Happy Quail Lisa (Loehr)Spaulding Jan Halash ๐ป๐๐ Jane Foster๐๐ Judy Fulmer
Don't think #ChildhoodCancer is rare. What is REALLY RARE is adequate funding for #immunotherapy to reduce the need for chemo which has toxic & long term late effects for kids CAC2 Happy Quail Susannah Koontz, PharmD, BCOP ๐ Lisa (Loehr)Spaulding Ellyn Miller Lisa Ward Mary lckc ๐๏ธ
Isn't it madness for us to not invest in research on the #1 disease killer of our kids - #ChildhoodCancer . For every 5 children diagnosed, 4 survive. Sadly, most survivors are likely to have serious late effects due the treatment they received. CAC2 Happy Quail #Final4
As a kid, if you loved to hunt Easter Eggs, as a parent try hunting for people who are not yet affected by #Childhoodcancer & see if you can get them to help support legislation to improve research. These are good 4sqclobberscancer.com/on-capital-hilโฆ

Average age of a #ChildhoodCancer diagnosis is 6 yrs old. Only 4 out of 5 kids survive 5 yrs, can you imagine how it feels to see them celebrate significant milestone birthdays like sweet 16 or their 21st birthday? Get involved Happy Quail CAC2 4sqclobberscancer.com/on-capital-hilโฆ
Helping support good legislation would help improve research. Kids & adults aren't the same. Seldom are cancer clinical trials for kids only. Check out legislation that could make a difference. CAC2 Happy Quail Amanda Haddock ๐งฌ Susannah Koontz, PharmD, BCOP ๐

Some think Winston Churchill said it first, I believe our parents demonstrate it 24/7/365. How many children have to suffer before we stop calling it a 'rare' disease and begin to call it a 'priority?' 400,000+ worldwide get #ChildhoodCancer yearly.

#ChildhoodCancer is a thief... It steals young lives, it steals a lifetime of holidays & special occasions from families. Here in the USA, it kills more kids than any other disease Happy Quail CAC2 Lisa (Loehr)Spaulding Mary lckc ๐๏ธ Jan Halash ๐ป๐๐ Jane Foster๐๐ Judy Fulmer
Adults have over 200 cancer drugs. Kids have to use 35 adult drugs & chemos because there are only 6 #ChildhoodCancer drugs made specifically for kids. Don't call 400,000 kids diagnosed worldwide annually 'rare' Happy Quail CAC2 Susannah Koontz, PharmD, BCOP ๐ Lisa (Loehr)Spaulding Mary Beth Collins
Support good legislation to help make a difference for kids fighting #ChildhoodCancer in the future. CAC2

Joe Baber CAC2 Happy Quail Nick Vitanza Really critical issue! Despite recent advances and goal for more targeted therapies, a large majority of cancer therapies are still based on the backbone of many of these now generic cytotoxic chemotherapies!
