PATIENT STORIES
Here are the stories of just some people who’ve battled Ewing’s.
About 80 people are diagnosed with Ewing’s Sarcoma each and every year in the UK. For anyone diagnosed with this form of cancer, treatment takes a long time, involving chemotherapy as well as surgery, radiotherapy or a combination of all three.
Matt’s story
I was diagnosed with Ewing’s Sarcoma in November 2007. I was an extremely active 16-year-old, who assumed an innocuous tackle in a football match was causing the pain and swelling in my right heel. But after two months of investigations, I was told I had a rare form of bone cancer: Ewing’s Sarcoma. The next few weeks were a whirlwind of activity. I was diagnosed on a Friday, and on the Monday, I was expected at University College London Hospital...
Mark’s Story
Mark was diagnosed with Ewing’s Sarcoma in his left femur in September 2010, and tragically passed away in April 2012. Mark was first diagnosed with Ewing’s Sarcoma on 29th September 2010 aged 10. His symptoms began only 8 weeks earlier when he complained of minor aches and pains in his left thigh. We dismissed these as growing pains, or a pulled muscle, as they weren’t too bad at that point. Mark was very sporty and active. He played football and swam...

What does your help really mean?
We are so thankful to all of our wonderful fundraisers. Advances in the treatment of Ewing’s Sarcoma only come from many days of research. Here two of our researchers have messages for you, because the money you donate enables them to identify new treatments for Ewing’s patients.
We’re fortunate to be beneficiaries of ESRT fundraising and I’d like to thank each and every one of you for your support. With the money that you have raised, we’ve been able to develop patient derived models. We’re now using those models to identify new treatments that could be used by doctors in the future to help improve cure rates for patients.
My project would definitely not have been possible without support from the Ewing’s Sarcoma Research Trust. It is so important that there is a charity that is solely focussed on finding new treatment options for Ewing’ Sarcoma patients. I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of the supporters of the Ewing’s Sarcoma Research Trust for their hard work and fundraising efforts.

Partnership with the GOSH Charity and Sparks National Funding Call
"The Ewing's Sarcoma Research Trust is delighted to be partnering with the GOSH Charity and Sparks National Funding Call 2020/2021. Early diagnosis of any cancer increases the chances of survival, but once diagnosed effective treatments are essential if we are to improve the outcomes for this rare cancer affecting the younger generation. We must build on recent progress to give Ewing's patients the same hope that every cancer patient can expect, and we hope that this research call will engender greater...
