Most prevalent #AYA #cancer: #brain & #spinalcord. “We know far less about the burden of CNS tumors in AYAs compared to the pediatric and adult populations,” One reason why we focus on improving the care and outcomes of people diagnosed between 15 - 39 years of age. #AYACSM

Hear Hear Jame Abraham, MD, FACP! Excellent suggestion. Write a RX for activity for every #cancersurvivor. Being active, espeically as an #AYA, is some of the best treatment a person can give themselves for decades! #AYACSM #EarlyOnset #activitymatters

The proposed cuts in the budget bill would kick nearly 11 million people off their health insurance, including adolescent and young adult cancer patients. Tell your local lawmakers to vote no and #ProtectAffordableCare #ProtectMedicaid act.fightcancer.org/a/join-medicai…
