Greta was 5 years old when she was diagnosed with an aggressive bone cancer in her spine, Ewing's Sarcoma. She is now 6 years old and still battling hard, while trying to enjoy the world as a little girl.
Childhood bone cancers have some of the lowest rates of survival, especially when present in the spine.
Terry Fox had a childhood bone cancer as well. Very few medications have been approved for use since Terry Fox ran his epic Marathon of Hope. We are hoping to help change that sooner rather than later, for kids like Greta who need the newer treatments now.
We would like to help fund Sarcoma research here in BC and Canada, and help BC kids with Sarcoma get treatments that are currently only available in the U.S.
One of the top Sarcoma researchers in the world works in Vancouver, Dr. Poul Sorensen, and we are hopeful that by funding his lab, and other local sarcoma initiatives, that we can make a difference. Please help us do that. For Greta, and for all her friends that are also fighting hard.
