Forever Martha Strong for the Better Ewing Sarcoma Treatment Grant
St. Baldrick’s Foundation shared on LinkedIn:
“Martha was diagnosed with metastatic Ewing sarcoma in August 2015. In the 7 years that followed, she endured 2 relapses, participated in clinical trials, and underwent surgery to remove a tumour in her lung.
Throughout her journey, she remained strong, creative, and athletic, including her love for mountain biking.
Despite the best today’s medicine could offer, Martha died at the age of 20.
To honor her and all that she endured and to pave the way for others to survive Ewing sarcoma, the Forever Martha Strong Hero Fund was created.
Combined with the funding from 3 other groups – all dedicated to finding a cure for Ewing sarcoma – Forever Martha Strong hopes research can find better treatment options for kids through the Better Ewing Sarcoma Treatment (BEST) Grant. Learn more.”
