Falcon Memorial Cancer Institute

Falcon Memorial Cancer Institute FMCI is committed to delivering the targets of the World Cancer Declaration.

Operating since December 2020, FMCI works closely with hospitals specialized in oncology to identify and provide support to cancer fighters, celebrate cancer survivors, honour the taken, and never give up hope to patients and their close ones. It is foreseen that the death toll will increase to 16.3 million per year by 2040 (Source: Globocan 2020 and Cancer Tomorrow, IARC). Thus, FMCI embraces the battle against cancer through strategic partnerships involving members and other institutions interested in fighting cancer. It aims to save lives by focusing on what needs to be done, by building capacity to meet local needs. Among the planned activities of FMCI to contribute to World Cancer day, running person-to-person exchanges, such as awareness campaigns, workshops, & conferences about cancer, early cancer detection & cancer prevention around the island are on agenda. The Falcon Memorial Cancer Institute will be coming forward with other activities as a drive to call for action.

💜 During World Alzheimer’s Month, we are reminded that behind every illness, there is a person, a family, and a story.

At FMCI, our mission remains the same: to uphold dignity and well-being for all those facing the challenges of disease, whether cancer or other conditions that affect our elders.

September is Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month 🌸

Know the signs, trust your body, and don’t ignore the symptoms: bloated tummy, tummy pain, needing to wee more, and always feeling full.

At just 6 years old, Alana was diagnosed with stage 4 Hodgkin lymphoma.
Her journey was filled with challenges; hospital stays, treatments, and moments of fear. But today, at 13, she is cancer-free. 💛

Her words remind us all:
“Never stop smiling, never stop dreaming, never stop believing, never stop fighting… Never give up!”

This Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, let’s honor the courage of children like Alana and fight for a future where every child has access to the treatment they need to survive.

Every year, 400,000 children are diagnosed with cancer.
While treatments exist that can cure up to 80% of cases, survival depends on access and in many countries, less than 30% of children survive.

“Children with cancer can’t fight it alone, together we can fight it and win.” – Dr. Guillermo Chantada 💛

Every year, 400,000 children worldwide are diagnosed with cancer. With access to proper treatment, up to 80% can be cured, yet in many low- and middle-income countries, survival is still below 30% (Source: WHO).

This Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, let’s raise our voices, spread awareness, and stand by every child and family in the fight for life. Because every child deserves a future.

Just 1 in 3 children diagnosed with cancer worldwide survive five years. Most of these young patients live in low- and middle-income countries, where nearly 90% of cases occur and survival rates often fall below 20%.

This Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, let’s advocate for equity in treatment and cure.

Every 80 seconds, a child is diagnosed with cancer.
Each year, 400,000 families worldwide face this painful reality.
In high-income countries, 80% of children survive. But in many low- and middle-income countries, less than 30% do.

With access to proper services, up to 80% of childhood cancers can be cured, yet only 29% of low-income countries report having essential medicines.

This Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, let’s turn these numbers into action.

Every 4 minutes, 3 children are diagnosed with cancer.

For many, the journey begins in a hospital bed surrounded by urgency, fear, and uncertainty.

In low- and middle-income countries, where 90% of cases occur, only 1 in 5 children survive.
This Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, let’s turn urgency into hope.
💛 Every child deserves a chance to fight.

Half of cancers worldwide are diagnosed too late. But when found early, survival rates can be up to three times higher.

This , FMCI reminds you that early detection is one of the most powerful tools we have in the fight against cancer.

🔎 Why early detection matters:

- Cancers detected at Stage I or II are far more treatable and have much higher survival rates.
- Regular screenings can detect signs long before symptoms appear.
- Simple steps like annual health check-ups, paying attention to body changes, and knowing your family medical history can save lives.

💡 Did you know?

- In many cancers, including breast and colorectal, survival rates are over 90% when detected early.
- Yet, almost 50% of cancers are only found in advanced stages, when treatment is more complex and survival rates drop sharply.

This month is not just about raising awareness, it’s about taking action. Encourage your loved ones to book their screenings, talk openly about health, and support one another in prevention.

👉 Together, we can shift the numbers. Together, we can save lives.
