Day 237 - Saturday. Today we are at the first Bone Cancer Research Trust conference
Ewing’s sarcoma (bone tumour) mainly affects teenagers with the median age of diagnosis being 15.
We met lots of parents whose children had died and some young people who have survived treatment. Nearly everyone spoke about how long it took to get a correct diagnosis and treatment for cancer – anything from 6 months to 3 years.
For Martin it took a year from when he first had the pain and went to his doctor before – numerous visits later - he had an x-ray and the correct diagnosis.
It was suggested that going to your GP (family doctor) was not the best thing to have done. If we’d gone to A & E (accident and emergency) it would have been more likely that he’d have had an x-ray.
If you have Ewing’s sarcoma you are more likely to survive if you are in Germany. This might be because you are more likely to be diagnosed earlier because you are more likely to be given an x-ray. It might be the different treatment protocol. It might be a combination of the two.

U.S. Rep. Lisa Blunt Rochester saw demonstrations of how DHSS’ Delaware Treatment and Referral Network and the Department of State’s Prescription Monitoring Program are being used to respond to Delaware’s opioid epidemic. Secretary Walker welcomed the congresswoman to the Holloway Campus on Sept. 6 and thanked her as a member of Delaware’s congressional delegation for $5.8 million in new CDC funding for the state to help fight the epidemic.
Elizabeth Romero, director of DHSS’ Division of Substance Abuse and Mental, said under the Delaware Treatment and Referral Network, health care professionals have made 17,000 referrals to behavioral health providers in the first year of the online referral system. The real-time referral allow health care professionals to know if their patient will be accepted for addiction or mental illness treatment, typically in less than hour. Beyond the almost-immediate connection to care, Romero said DSAMH “is using our data to figure out if our system needs help.” Rep. Blunt Rochester said that use of technology is a game-changer for people in crisis.
David Mangler, director of the Division of Professional Regulation in the Department of State, said there are 8,600 registered users of the PMP. Delaware is also among 35 states that are part of a data-sharing hub. The result is more than 8 million data requests per month, Mangler said.
Jason Slavoski, PMP administrator, said those who use the PMP – physicians, pharmacies and prescriber delegates – can see an overdose risk score for each patient and guidance on how to use the scores. Rep. Blunt Rochester said this is important work to reduce the number of Delawareans at risk for overdose.
