My Story of HopeBeing diagnosed with cancer showed me it can attack anyone at any time for any number of reasons. For the first time in my life, I felt powerless and vulnerable…LEARN MOREMeetKelliLUNG CANCERSURVIVORAs a retired school teacher, I knew I would face life challenges, but nothing like when I was diagnosed with Stage IIIB/IV lung cancer. I never smoked, and had no family history of cancer, so why me? I quickly learned cancer attacks anyone at any time for any reason. I felt powerless and vulnerable for the first time in my life.
I began researching hospitals and clinics and discovered there was a promising clinical trial at MD Anderson, but how could I afford to be away from home so long? I learned about OHA right here in Springfield, MO. They collaborate with MD Anderson, Mayo Clinic, Barnes/Siteman and others. I received treatments at OHA, which reduced the visits I needed at MD Anderson. The staff at OHA were amazing. I had comfort in knowing that I had a team of cancer experts making certain I had the best care and advanced treatments just miles from home.
I've been cancer free for 6 years. Dr. Ellis and his team continue to follow my progress. It’s wonderful knowing OHA is giving hope to so many at the darkest time in their lives.
