As a teen, Kurt noticed a painful lump on his leg during football practice, and his mom made him get it checked out. Soon after he was diagnosed w/osteosarcoma. That began his journey to becoming a sarcoma surgeon & scientist decades later. Hear his story. #sarcomaawarenessmonth

A message from @RichardDavidson, Chief Executive, Sarcoma UK. Not enough people know about sarcoma. #SarcomaAwarenessMonth is an opportunity to reach them. When people are aware of the symptoms of this cancer, there's a better chance of an earlier diagnosis. [1/2]
