Interesting article about the difference in survival rates of pediatric vs. adult patients. It mentions Ewings Sarcoma and ALL, among others. Statistics are so terribly enticing- I know I shouldn't read on, but I just HAVE to...

"...for teenagers and young adults like her, the prospects for survival had barely budged..."

*EDIT*

This link is MIA but if you search for the file "InTheirPrimeandDying.pdf" you'll be able to read it in google reader.
