À seulement 17 ans, en pleine pandémie, Noémi a découvert qu'elle était atteinte d'un ostéosarcome, une forme rare de cancer des os, le même que celui qu’avait Terry Fox.

Elle partage son histoire dans le dernier épisode de Prendre le pouls, notre série d'entrevues avec des médecins, chercheurs et patients.

Recevoir un diagnostic de cancer à un si jeune âge est terrible, mais Noémi a choisi de se battre. Avec le soutien attentif de l'équipe médicale du Centre universitaire de santé McGill (CUSM), elle a traversé des traitements difficiles, comprenant chimiothérapie et chirurgie, avec une bravoure impressionnante.

L'histoire de Noémi n'est pas seulement celle d'une victoire personnelle. C'est aussi un rappel poignant de l'importance de la recherche et des avancées médicales dans la lutte contre les sarcomes et les autres formes de cancer.

Taking the Pulse: Noémi's Story - Surviving Sarcoma 

At just 17 years old, during the pandemic, Noémi was diagnosed with osteosarcoma. A rare form of bone cancer, it's the same kind Terry Fox had.

She shares her story in the latest episode of Taking the Pulse (in French), our series of interviews with doctors, researchers, and patients.

Being diagnosed with cancer at such a young age could have brought her down, but Noémi chose to fight. With the attentive support of the medical team at the McGill University Health Centre (MUHC), she endured difficult treatments, including chemotherapy and surgery, with impressive bravery.

Noémi's story is not just one of personal accomplishment. It's also a poignant reminder of the importance of research and medical advances in the fight against sarcoma and other forms of cancer.
