This photo was taken 3 years ago today. The day she was diagnosed with the cancer that took her life 28 months later. A happy healthy girl. Except she wasn’t healthy. She had Stage 4 ARMS. Help us change the story for other children & their families. bemoreruby.com

Today on @theJeremyVine Listen from 1:31:35 to hear Ruby’s mummy talk about anticipatory grief. The life of a child forever changed by cancer is a life that creates grief, regardless of the outcome. So much more to say… bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m001sl…

July is #SarcomaAwarenessMonth πŸŽ—οΈπŸ’› 7 in 10 children who are diagnosed with #rhabdomyosarcoma will survive – but this is a lot lower than the average survival across all cancers. That’s why #SNFs like @PassTheSmileOrg & @BeMoreRuby1 are so important πŸ‘‡πŸ»
