Focus On: Sarcoma

Sarcoma is a type of cancer arising from the connective tissues of the body, such as bones, muscles, and cartilage. Since sarcoma is a rare form of cancer, a sarcoma diagnosis may make you feel alone and uncertain of what treatment options you should pursue. CancerCare offers the Telephone Education Workshop podcasts, Treatment Update on Sarcoma, and Treatment Update on GIST (Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors). Need to speak with someone? Our professional oncology social workers are here to provide support for people with sarcoma and their loved ones. Call us at 1-800-813-4673 (HOPE). Get the latest information on treatment advances for leukemia, lymphoma and multiple myeloma in our new Connect booklet, Report From the 2007 Annual Meeting of the American Society of Hematology
