This National Family Caregivers Month, we want to recognize Monique D., L.S.W., a behavioral health therapist at our hospital, who brings a unique experience to her profession, having cared for her mother, and now for her stepfather.

"Knowing first-hand the emotional difficulty that exists when watching someone you love battles cancer, caregivers don’t realize that they each have their own specific cancer journey separate from the patient," said Monique.

Monique's mother, Pamela, lost her battle to stage 4 non-small cell lung cancer in 2018, but today, Monique cares for her stepfather, Jon, who has stage 1 papillary thyroid cancer and kidney disease.

Monique recommends journaling every day because there are always emotions present, always questions, always fears, always worries. But journaling gives you an outlet to express your emotions during tough times.

In 2022, Stage 4 lung cancer left lifelong truck driver Jeff B. so weak, he had to put the brakes on his career. Today, the 64-year-old from Waukesha County, Wisconsin, is celebrating a major milestone — climbing back into his 18-wheeler.

Jeff beat the odds after completing 21 cycles of immunotherapy and making the life-changing decision to quit smoking. His last two scans came back clear and he is currently cancer free.

“Keeping myself moving is key,” Jeff said, "You got to just power through it!"

We’re proud to celebrate Jeff’s strength, determination, and incredible progress on his journey back to health. ❤️

Hope Highlight: Radiation Oncology and Imaging Services Teams

We’re recognizing the experts behind the scans, treatments, and technologies that make early diagnosis and effective cancer care possible. Thank you for the lifesaving work you do every day. 💙

Fun Fact: Today marks 130 years since Wilhelm Conrad Roentgen transformed modern medicine forever with the discovery of the X-ray on November 8, 1895.

It takes a special kind of strength to turn personal struggle into purpose.

Nina Y. from Chicago's north suburbs began mammogram screenings in her early 20s after learning she has the BRCA2 gene mutation.

In April, she woke up from a dream where she felt called to schedule her exam, and then felt a lump. That lump turned out to be stage 2b breast cancer. Nina underwent a double mastectomy and reconstructive surgery. Still going through immunotherapy and facing radiation at the start of the new year, the 36-year-old put her focus on giving-back, organizing her own fundraising event which earned over $16,000 to support breast cancer awareness and research at City of Hope Cancer Center.

Nina wanted to make a difference — to shine a light on breast cancer and the importance of genetic testing for the BRCA mutation.

Her strength shows that one person truly can make a world of difference. 💪

Her journey into oncology was inspired by her grandmother’s positive experience during cancer treatment — a story that continues to shape her approach today.
