Last week we marked our 4th year of participating in the Annual Sarcoma Strong Run. Thank YOU, Team Philippines 🇵🇭 for making this year even better than the last! Cheers to all our friends, family, colleagues, patients, and well-wishers who spent time supporting this cause.

We also want to give special thanks to Bea, who reached out and agreed to share her husband's story. While he is no longer with us, Bea remains committed to supporting sarcoma research and advocating for patients. Our prayers and gratitude are with you and all of those who are going through personal sarcoma battles.

We remain hopeful that resilience and research will continue to bring more discoveries and better options for sarcoma care 🌻

Paalala po sa lahat: half day lamang ang OUTPATIENT DEPARTMENT sa ospital bukas, July 25. Mananatiling bukas ang EMERGENCY SERVICES, kabilang dito ang emergency consults at surgeries.

Kung walang agarang pangangailangan o ikokonsulta, manatili muna sa bahay ngayong kasagsagan ng bagyo. Iwasan natin na lumusong sa tubig baha. Kung hindi maiiwasan, huwag kalimutang maglinis gamit ang sabon at tubig ng anumang bahagi ng katawan na nalublob, upang makaiwas sa sakit.
