The purpose of my channel is to document my cancer journey to look back on, and/or help anyone else going through anything similar. It is also to potentially help loved ones supporting those who are in this fight as well. This is also an easy way to update a lot of people at once. My main goal is to have footage of this journey for my husband and children to look back on. I originally created this channel as a sort of video diary for my
family.

Thank you so much for following along on this journey. Your love and support help me so much.

A breakthrough in eradicating cancer | Eric Tran | TEDxPortland
A breakthrough in eradicating cancer | Eric Tran | TEDxPortland administrator 6 Views • 2 years ago

Dr. Eric Tran and his incredible team are pioneering breakthroughs in cancer immunotherapy - a "global first" in tumor reduction efforts. The work being done uses an infusion of 16 billion reprogrammed T-cells to target cancerous cells and remove them from the body. It shows that our immune system is capable of curing advanced cancer. While cancer is formidable, so are we. You will find this talk both inspiring and enlightening, as we embolden our efforts to eradicate this disease.

Eric was part of a historic 7,000+ attendee Year 10 experience. After three reschedules due to the Pandemic, our Core Organizing Team persevered through 1,164 days of planning and execution to produce the event for Portland, OR.

With special thanks to the University of Oregon for presenting partnership, a world class stage design
provided by Meyer Pro Inc, an incredible legacy bound Event Book provided by Premier Press and to the creative digital craft provided by Enjoy the Weather & Victory Creative. All of our Partners and event history can be found at TEDxPortland.com Eric is focused on eradicating cancer. After receiving a PhD from the University of Victoria in Canada, Eric trained at the National Institutes of Health with Dr. Steven A. Rosenberg, a pioneer in cancer immunotherapy, a field that harnesses the body’s immune system to fight cancer. In 2017, Eric joined the Earle A. Chiles Research Institute, a division of Providence Cancer Institute, here in Portland to develop new immunotherapies that specifically target cancer mutations in hopes to #FINISHCANCER. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at

As women previously afraid to visit their GP because of Covid-19 reveal symptoms that have been worrying them, new referrals for suspected gynaecological cancer reach almost 50 a week.

With a referral target to see patients in two weeks and with some complex cases already breaching this goal, Smruta and her team are under pressure to find diagnostic and theatre space in the hospital. But with more than 70 theatre staff still shielding because of new Covid rules and only 22 out of 32 theatres able to be utilised, it has become an uphill battle.

Principles of Cancer Treatment
Principles of Cancer Treatment administrator 2 Views • 2 years ago

This video outlines the basic principles of cancer treatment - what the main treatment types are, who is involved in deciding and providing the treatments, how those treatments are used in combination and other factors in choosing cancer treatments.

The main three types of treatment described are surgery, radiotherapy, and medical therapies.

Decisions are made by a multi-disciplinary team, made up of oncologists, surgeons, physicians, radiologists, histopathologists and specialist nurses.

Broadly speaking, the aims of treatment are either to cure (curative, or radical treatment) or palliative - aimed at controlling symptoms and extending life.

There are also a number of terms that refer to how that treatment is given, particularly in reference to the main, or primary, treatment. Neo-adjuvant treatments are given before the primary treatment to maximise the benefits of the main intervention, whereas adjuvant treatments are given afterward to reduce the risk of the cancer recurring.

A number of different factors come in to play when deciding which treatments to use and in which order. These are tumour factors: i.e. what kind of cancer is it and what stage is it? Treatment factors refer to whether a treatment is actually available, how likely it is to work and whether it is likely to produce significant side effects. Patient factors concern whether the patient is fit enough to have a treatment, and their personal preferences as to whether they want a treatment or not.
