Two examples illustrate how…”

At 9 a.m. on the 22nd January 2024 my phone rang. We were told that the masses they had found the previous day were unequivocally cancer. It was the call no-one ever wants to receive. Liz was admitted to LGI that evening. At this time a year ago, she was sat on the floor next to her hospital bed, unable to process what was happening. She was just 16 and her world had fallen apart. As I tried to be positive and tell us all that 90% of teenagers with cancer survive. I had no idea that the worst was yet to come.
Liz survived just 10 months. She died aged just 17.
She was diagnosed with Desmoplastic Small Round Cell Tumour - a rare and aggressive sarcoma with only a 15% five year survival rate. Too rare for pharmaceutical companies to invest in research for, with no central source of information, we and her doctors hunted for a needle in a haystack trying to save her.
We lost Liz eight weeks ago, our hearts are broken but our fight has just begun. We have started ‘The Desmoplastic Small Round Cell Tumour Charity’ - more research could have saved Liz, we can’t stand by and watch that happen to others. We will be the only charity in the world solely dedicated to supporting families and funding research into DSRCT, but we need your help. If you can please donate - small amounts add up, it doesn’t need to be a lot. If you can’t please tell others about Liz’s story or think about fundraising for us.
It is not ok that in 2025 teenagers are dying from cancers that have not been researched due to a lack of funding. We can’t save Liz, our hearts will always be broken, but with your help we can change the future for others: justgiving.com/crowdfunding/v…
You can find more information about Liz’s story and see the incredible photographs she took on her instagram @lizhatton_photography
If you like her photographs, 12 are currently up for auction to raise funds for research. Hers start at lot 235. Why not take a look? easyliveauction.com/catalogue/c811…
Liz worshipped her little brother Mateo and he worshipped her. Please, if you can, help other siblings have longer together.

On this date at this time last year we were sat in A & E. Liz was waiting to go for a CT scan. The worst news we could imagine was that she had an ovarian cyst. Instead she had the scan and we were told she had masses in her omentum, liver and ovaries. It wasn’t the worst news we were to receive, as the week progressed the news only got worse.
It’s hard to believe it’s a year ago. It feels both simultaneously a very short time ago and a lifetime ago all at once.
A year later it is now already eight weeks since she died, aged only 17. Life can change in an instant. Hug your children tightly and make the most of every moment.
If you can, help us to make sure other young people have a better chance of survival than Liz did: justgiving.com/crowdfunding/v…

Up to 82% of pregnant surgeons experience miscarriage, preterm delivery, and intrauterine growth restriction. Occupational hazards, including prolonged standing, physical exertion, overnight shifts, and teratogenic exposure, contribute to these risks.
