A member asked:
What can i do if my friend has osteosarcomas, is it cancer?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Yes: I'm glad you are there for your friend. A few decades ago, almost all osteosarcomas were fatal. Now the majority are curable. I hope your friend has a favorable outcome, and even more that her illness shows her that you are a true friend for good times and bad.
