BRIEFER ON CHILDHOOD CANCER SURVIVORS
COMMON MYTHS AND MISCONCEPTIONS ABOUT CHILDHOOD CANCER SURVIVORS
Letter from Childhood Cancer International:
“Dear Members, Colleagues and Friends,
At the heart of what we all are committed to doing, is ensuring that children with cancer everywhere, get the best treatment and care they deserve and thus improve their chance for a cure.
Over the years, in a number of countries, both in developed and middle income countries, childhood cancer survivorship has increased. We have a growing number of survivors who are living testimonies that childhood cancer is curable.
Thus, while we continue to advocate for initiatives that will lessen the inequities in survival rates between developed and developing countries, this June, we pause to focus on our childhood cancer survivors.
This June, in solidarity with Childhood Cancer International Survivors Network, UICC and SIOP members, we celebrate the life of our survivors. We honor their courageous journeys and recognize the challenges they continue to face.
Let us STAND TOGETHER with our childhood cancer survivors.
TOGETHER, WE ARE STRONGER.
Together, we will help build better futures for our survivors
Sincerely – Childhood Cancer International”
