July is Sarcoma Awareness Month! Every July, we honor, celebrate, and amplify the Sarcoma community in support of this rare cancer. As we begin Sarcoma Awareness Month, here are some statistics about the disease, per the Sarcoma Foundation of America: In recent year, sarcoma has comprised 1% of adult cancers diagnosed in the United States while also comprising 15 to 20% of childhood cancers. Latest estimates show that 17,560 people in the United States will be diagnosed with sarcoma and ~220,000 patients and families are living with sarcoma in a given year. There are so many ways to learn and get involved with this inspiring community! We can't wait to share more. #sarcoma #sarcomaawarenessmonth #orthopediconcology #oncology #musculoskeletaloncology #bonecancer #cancerawareness #rarecancer
