Mums, a young survivor & researchers met in Cambridge to fight ALCL—a rare cancer.

From grief to action, their bond is reshaping research & care. This is what global solidarity, love & science can do. 💜

Really was a fantastic day - we are so humbled to have met you and to have heard about your children’s journeys through #ALCL. We still have so much to do - it is not acceptable that children are still being treated with nasty chemotherapy when there are #ALKinhibitors available. Shame on Pharma!
Inspiring day at the University of Cambridge talking to cancer researchers about ALCL and hearing from them about the latest research. Amazing to have met ALCL mums. Ready to work together to improve ALCL survival @sdt36suzanne.bsky.social
