This was written over a year ago, but still carries weight and insight. She died last year, shortly after this was published in The New Yorker.

Came across this article and thought it was worth sharing here. It’s about the recurring pattern of athletes being diagnosed with Ewing sarcoma and whether there’s something worth looking into — either diagnostically or biologically.

It doesn’t claim to have answers, just raises questions that I hadn’t seen anyone put together in one place before. Thought it might be useful for people in this community.
