I’ve found the coverage of the inquest into Alexander Tekle’s suicide too painful to comment on.
Until now.
(This will be a LONG one.)

Today is #LessSurvivableCancersAwarenessDay
Less survivable cancers are difficult to diagnose and it's important we raise awareness of them.
If you have worrying symptoms, see your GP, and encourage others to do the same.

"A quarter of cancers in the UK have an average five-year survival rate of only 16% and are often diagnosed late in emergency departments..."

It’s #LessSurvivableCancersAwarenessDay!
People diagnosed with less survivable cancers have a shockingly low life expectancy.
Only 16% of people survive for 5 years after being diagnosed with these cancers.

Some cancers have seen remarkable progress in survivability but others are as deadly as they were 40 years ago.
That’s why we’re supporting the first ever #LessSurvivableCancersAwarenessDay on 11 January 2022.

Too many families have lost loved ones to #Glioblastoma this year & Christmas can be tough for many reasons. I’m not naïve enough to think this is the answer, but it may offer a few suggestions to help someone get through December in one piece. #Grief @BrainTumourOrg

We are extremely proud of our founder @DB_Inspires who despite his ongoing current 7yr battle with a terminal #Glioblastoma IV, still uses his voice to fight for those who've been diagnosed or passed away with 1 of 150 different types of brain tumours #APPGBT #fundthefight
Thanks to dad-of-two, Dave, who shared his #braintumour story at our #APPGBT💛 In 2014 he underwent a craniotomy and it showed it was a grade 2 #astrocytoma. In 2015 he was then diagnosed with a #glioblastomamultiforme (GBM). Read more➡️ bit.ly/3osD3rO @DB_Inspires

Our working group in Scotland met with @HumzaYousaf today.
It was great to discuss less survivable cancers with the Cabinet Secretary, and to have a constructive discussion on next steps.
We look forward to continuing work with the Scottish govt and seeing action for LSCs!
