From Logan's 2nd mum: We went to Rothesay today to remember Logan on the day before his 4 year anniversary. 4 years since he died aged 3. Heโs been dead longer than he lived. Let that sink in. We sat on his beautiful memorial bench. A memorial bench for a 3 yo. Let that sink in

Seems fitting that our editorial "Diffuse midline glioma, H3K27-altered: Illuminating the dark side of the moon" discussing DMG's lack of treatment vs the pioneering discoveries of Sidney Faber is published while @PNOC_kids meeting @DanaFarber in Boston https://t.co/GyqltUzGVt

Please read this thread the stark and sad facts of a #DIPG diagnosis that only affected families can truly comprehend ...they are brutal and shouldn't be a reality. We're trying ,a brighter outlook cannot come soon enough ๐ #billythebrave
Weโre coming to the end of #braintumourawarenessmonth and I wanted to let you know a bit more about DIPG. DIPG is short for Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma. It completely ravages its victims - mostly all young children like Billy.

Given that Ministers have had the final @bloodinquiry recommendations on infected blood scandal compensation since April 2023, many will suspect that this story might well apply more widely than just the Post Office Horizon scandal.

This #WorldCancerDay let's acknowledge equity of access, celebrate the advances but know those made do not reach everyone. #DIPG remains lethal with only 10% of child patients surviving beyond 2 years. They need our support ๐

This will be really important viewing, based on @doctor_oxford excellent factual book - looking forward to it
Proud to share the key art image for @ITV's BREATHTAKING. @JoFroggatt captures so hauntingly the exhaustion, grit & shellshocked face that so many NHS staff wore. Transmission dates to be announced next week. #NHS ๐
