About five years ago, she was diagnosed with cancer and it was sarcoma cancer. I never even heard of sarcoma before, but when we looked it up and researched what it was about, we understood that there's a good possibility that she could lose a limb because her sarcoma was in her arm. And right off the top of the gate, she said "I'm not losing my arm. I don't want to do that. If I was younger, I would maybe do that. I could learn how to live a little differently." But at 89 years old — when this was coming around to be a possible amputation — she didn't want to do it.

The Move for Jenn Foundation surprised an amputee Wednesday at Burn Boot Camp Harrisburg with a new prosthetic.

“One doctor just told us, ‘I don’t even know what to do’ — the next one said, ‘I’m sorry, you’re going to die in four months’ and I went, ‘Whelp. You’re not the one either,’” David said. “We went through all of that and we finally came to a couple of doctors that said ‘Look, I can’t promise you anything, but we’ll try’ and that’s what we went with.”

At first, Sal blamed ill-fitting work boots for pain in his left foot. Then he noticed a bump.

Initially, doctors thought the growth was a cyst. But after removing it in May 2017, they said, “‘That doesn’t look like a cyst. We’re sending it off for a biopsy,’” Alex recalled.

The pathology report was unexpected and devastating: synovial sarcoma, a rare malignancy that affects soft tissue and often is found in the extremities.

While Kristin Arielle Oliver was in the hospital with cardiac sarcoma, she struggled to understand why she was stricken with the disease. The 29-year-old worked out regularly and tried to keep healthy, and yet she found herself hospitalized and facing a fatal illness while holding out hope for advances in research and treatment that would save her life.

“Your life is going to make a difference,” her mother, Pam Oliver, promised her daughter. “I told her that.”

Eight-year-old Lilly Bumpus not only beat cancer, but she also has beaten the Girl Scout cookie sales record for most boxes sold in a single season.

Lilly was born with Ewing sarcoma, a rare type of bone cancer that is often found in children and young adults. Symptoms of Ewing sarcoma include bone pain, fevers with no known cause, unexplained tiredness, a bone that breaks for no known reason, or a lump in the arms, legs, chest or pelvis. This condition can be treated with chemotherapy and the removal of bones, both treatments Lilly underwent before her first birthday.

A letter to my old self, knowing what I know now. Things I wish I could have told myself on 3/12/18.

A young cancer survivor is spreading love in a big way.

On this edition of The Big Picture, Philadelphia Flyers forward Oskar Lindblom talks with Christine Simpson about his journey back to the NHL after being diagnosed with Ewing’s Sarcoma.

Sir Tom, who died on Tuesday at the age of 100, helped raise over £33 million for NHS charities by walking laps of his garden.
