Today, May 17th is DIPG Awareness Day—a time to recognise the children and families we've come to know who have faced...or are currently facing the most devastating childhood brain tumour, and to reinforce why work to fund crucial research matters.
If you do only one thing today, please stand with the #DIPG community—patients, families, charities and advocates—it is their strength that continues to inspire action and accelerate change.
Pls Read, share and donate... justgiving.com/campaign/supe…
Only family led foundations truly understand the urgency of this which has driven us and everything we do for over a deacde!!!
#DIPG remains one of the most urgent, unmet needs in all oncology, without cure and very limited treatment options.
The breakthroughs so needed for patients who can’t afford to wait, seem to feel too slow and too few.

A third of the fund will come to @AbbiesArmy so lease be a hero for Neve and donate on the link...no amount is too small to show that we care 💗 gofundme.com/f/nevies-brain-…
Neve is missing her friends a lot and thought she wouldn't raise much....but the page is doing brilliantly! Courageously Neve is sharing her story to help us here at Abbie's Army, and we couldn't be more grateful to have such incredible, selfless support.
Neve has already been braver than a child should ever need to be, taking treatment in her stride and donating tumour samples to further research efforts.
Braver still, Neve has now created a fundraiser, after feeling 'embarassed' initially about her illness!
Can we all help beautiful Neve in her amazing and important mission?
We were contacted a while ago by Neve's Mother Sian, about her lovely 16 year old daughter, who was diagnosed with H3K27M+ DMG in January this year.

DIPG = INCURABLE.
I have been an advocate for Littles fighting the big fight for 10 yrs. You know what hasn't changed? It was INCURABLE then and it remains INCURABLE. That is so wrong, but we can change it. 💜🩷💚🦋

When a child is facing something as cruel and unfair as a #DIPG diagnosis....when their parents have to hear that their child's disease is incurable, we are constantly reminded of the change which is so desperately needed , by so many.
