STORY 1: Canton Police Asking For Help in Search of Missing 15-Year-Old
The Canton Police Department is asking for help in finding a missing teenager. Damani Braithwaite, 15, was last seen April 1 and has been labeled as a “missing runaway” on the Canton PD Facebook page. Canton PD is asking that anyone with information that could help locate Braithwaite contact Detective Michael Sweat at 770-720-4883 or email michael.sweat@cantonga.gov, or call 911. The case number is 202401480.
STORY 2: Child With Terminal Illness Receives Adaptive Bike From Atlanta Radio Station
A toddler diagnosed with a rare terminal illness, CLN1 disease, received an adaptive bicycle from Atlanta radio station 104.7 The Fish. Gracie Fawcett, 18 months old, was presented with the bike at In Harmony Pediatric Therapy. Gracie's parents described the devastating impact of the disease, which causes developmental delays, seizures, and progressive vision loss, ultimately leading to death in childhood. The adaptive bike, funded by The Fish and built by Freedom Concepts, aims to provide Gracie with mobility and joy amidst her health challenges. The emotional reveal brought comfort to her parents, who prioritize keeping Gracie comfortable amid her pain. The bike, costing $4,000 to $5,000, offers Gracie moments of happiness and freedom.
STORY 3: Northside Hospital offering newly-approved melanoma therapy treatment
Northside Hospital is pioneering a new T-cell therapy, AMTAGVI, for melanoma patients, making it the first hospital system in Georgia to offer this treatment. Approved by the FDA in February, AMTAGVI offers hope to those with unresectable and metastatic melanoma, providing a promising alternative for patients who have failed existing immunotherapies. This therapy involves isolating immune TIL cells from the patient's tumor, growing them in a lab, and reintroducing them into the patient to target and destroy cancer cells. With nearly 3,500 new melanoma cases expected in Georgia this year, Northside aims to address the challenges of treatment resistance and improve overall survival rates for patients. Referrals for AMTAGVI TIL therapy can be obtained through physicians or by contacting Northside Hospital directly.
