Today, we commend a decision by the U.S. Supreme Court ensuring medication decisions remain guided by science for patients. The ruling temporarily upholds @FDA authority to make science-based decisions about medications.

Heartbreaking message from mother, Lucica Antohi. 💔
“I don’t even know how to write this…
Today we received the results from the latest scan.
And my heart is breaking as I say this — the tumor is growing very fast. It has become very large, and surgery is no longer possible.
The doctors have told us there is nothing more they can do… only painkillers to try to keep him comfortable.
But how can a mother accept this? How can I just sit and watch my child suffer, knowing there must be something, somewhere, someone who can help?
I refuse to believe this is the end. I refuse to stop fighting for my child.
Please… if you are a doctor, a researcher, or you know anything about treatments, experimental drugs, clinical trials — anything at all — I am begging you to help us.
We are searching for even the smallest chance. One idea. One contact. One opportunity.
Please share this message. Help it reach the right person. Because somewhere out there, there might be someone who can save my child.
Thank you for standing with us in this fight. ❤️
Please repost to give Matia a chance to live. 🙏🏻
If you can help, please reach out to Matias’s mother:

Our chairman and CEO shares a very special message to his late daughter, Ashley, who's legacy lives on through the life-changing work being done at Cancer Response Team:
-----------------
Thirteen years ago today, on New Year’s Eve, you left us for Heaven. That day remains vivid in my heart, forever etched in my soul.
I often wonder why #BrainCancer struck you so young. Perhaps God chose you because He knew your courageous fight would inspire & touch the lives of countless families facing the same heartbreak.
I’m grateful for the promise I made to you before you died, to do everything I can to help Children battling cancer. Your life continues to make a profound difference, living on through every Child who must fight the same cruel battle you did.
Enjoy the fireworks in Heaven tonight, Ashley.
We love you endlessly & you will never be forgotten. Promise.
Your Dad. ❤️

Dear Congress:
This holiday season, you can give young cancer patients the ultimate gift by getting the childhood cancer package across the finish line. Kids with cancer are counting on you. Please don’t let them down.

Good news! The U.S. House of Representatives just passed key legislation to extend programs that incentivize drug companies to find cures for kids with #bloodcancer. Next up: the Senate. Thank you, @RepMcCaul, @RepDebDingell, @RepGusBilirakis & @RepKimSchrier for your leadership!

Cancer patients shouldn't face financial ruin because they got sick. Yet many patients incur debt to afford treatment.
Lawmakers can—and should—pass common-sense policies to protect patients from debt. Learn more about how we're advocating for action ⬇️

Kimmel.
Colbert.
Suits against the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and 60 Minutes.
Extorting settlements from CBS, ABC, and others.
Blocking the AP's access to the White House.
This administration is responsible for the most blatant attacks on the free press in American history.
What will be left of the First Amendment when he’s done?

It's frightening to think that not many people know that September is #ChildhoodCancer Awareness Month & how little research there is into childhood cancers in comparison to others. Most people would falsely assume that Children are a priority simply bc they are Children, but, unfortunately that means absolutely nothing.

For more than 75 years, we’ve been committed to creating a world without blood cancer. While our mission hasn’t changed, today, our name does.📣

If Congress doesn't act soon, tax credits that make health insurance premiums more affordable will expire. That means:
⚠️ On avg., people will pay 75% more for their premiums
⚠️ Many might choose to go without insurance due to increased costs

“We are deeply disappointed that Congress approved steep cuts to cancer research that for many years has generated groundbreaking FDA-approved treatments for adult & pediatric blood cancer patients. LLS will continue to fight for federal investments in lifesaving research.”
ELCD🌻🎗️🧡 retweeted
We're grateful for the hundreds of volunteers in Washington, D.C. today. Together, they’re urging lawmakers to pass legislation that can end needless treatment delays facing pediatric cancer patients and support investments in childhood cancer research. #KidsFirst2025 #ActionDays

Today, 38 national organizations–including ours–urged the House to protect Medicaid. "There is no way to make cuts of this magnitude without taking healthcare away from seniors, children & people with disabilities and chronic health conditions."
