🔬 Did You Know? July is Sarcoma Awareness Month 💛
At the National Centre for Persons with Disabilities (NCPD), we continue to educate and raise awareness on rare conditions that affect our community. Today, we spotlight Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors (GIST) — a rare and often misunderstood type of cancer.

📌 FACT:
Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are rare soft tissue sarcomas of the digestive tract, most often found in the stomach or small intestine. They are usually driven by mutations in the KIT or PDGFRA genes, though some have no known mutation ("wildtype"). GISTs can be hard to detect early due to vague symptoms and may spread to the liver or peritoneum if not caught early. Accurate diagnosis requires specialized testing, and treatment should be handled by doctors experienced in GIST care.

🎗️ Let’s continue advocating for early diagnosis, access to specialized care, and support for persons affected by rare cancers like GIST.

🎗️ July is Sarcoma Awareness Month
At the National Centre for Persons with Disabilities (NCPD), we stand in solidarity with individuals and families affected by rare cancers like sarcoma. This month, we raise awareness and promote early detection, education, and support.

📌 FACT:
Sarcoma is a rare group of cancers that start in the bones or soft tissues such as fat, muscle, nerves, or blood vessels. While it makes up only 1% of adult cancers, it accounts for about 15% of childhood cancers. With over 70 types—including bone sarcomas and soft tissue sarcomas like GIST—early diagnosis and specialized treatment are critical.

🩺 Awareness saves lives. Let's continue advocating for access to healthcare, inclusive support, and informed communities.
