Dear Friends, Persistence
Amy Gross
Executive Director
Most cancer survivors I know have a profound sense of hope. Their sense of hope is based on a realistic understanding of optimism, shaped by positive emotions, and powered by determination. The positive emotions help retain a clear focus; however, there are times when even the most optimistic person’s hope grows thin. The bottom line is, there are times when a person’s sense of despair can overwhelm any glimmer of hope. So, what does one do? The answer is “persist”.
Persist in making a realistic assessment of your situation and giving yourself a gift of hoping for the best. Persist in simplifying your life, recognizing the important relationships, and identifying things dearest to you. Persist in fueling your determination. Facing a cancer journey can be challenging, but it’s essential to take it one day or even one moment at a time, when necessary. Over the years, I’ve seen person after person overcome despair and find hope in believing they can win their fight for health. I’ve watched family and friends battle days of exhaustion and fatigue yet overcame those tough days with hope for better days. I challenge you to look around you... see how persistence has moved so many from failure to victory, all because of pure determination. Inspiration is all around us! Persistence can be one of the most admirable character traits a person can possess. Find your strength and do your best, despite any setbacks. We want you to know that everyone at the Bismarck Cancer Center is here for you… let us help you persist! Blessings, Amy Gross, Executive Director
TECHNOLOGY UPDATE
TThe Bismarck Cancer Center is taking cancer treatment to new levels. The Elekta Versa HD’s new machine features next-generation technology designed to enable complex radiation therapy with extreme accuracy. Treatment with this machine began in July.
The machine is located in the new addition on the north end of the BCC building. Versa HD allows sophisticated customization of the radiation beam directly to the patient’s tumor. External beam radiation is delivered by a device called a linear accelerator, also known as a Linac. The head of the Linac holds a multi-leaf collimator (MLC) that employs multiple moving tungsten leaves to block portions of the radiation beam, shaping it as it exits the machine. The better the shape of the radiation beam, the more accurately it targets the tumor. The more accurate treatment hasless potential
for damage to surrounding tissues and lowers the risk of side effects.
Versa HD provides the staff with more accuracy and precision to focus on the correct dose in the right place. The enhanced accuracy of the Versa HD offers many benefits, including shorter radiation delivery times, increased efficiency, and advanced motion management. Equally as exciting, we are currently replacing one of the existing treatment machines with another Versa HD, with our third machine set for replacement in the next few years.

GET TO KNOW YOUR TEAM
With Dr. John Watkins, Radiation Oncologist, BCC Q: I have seen some blood in my urine. Could it be bladder cancer? A: Blood in the urine can be a sign of bladder cancer, but it doesn’t always mean you have cancer. More often, it’s caused by other things like an infection, benign tumors, stones in the kidney or bladder, or other kidney diseases. In some cases, blood in the urine could be the first sign of bladder cancer. There may be enough blood to change the urine color to orange, pink, or, less often, dark red. Sometimes, the urine color is normal, but small amounts of blood are found when a urine test is done as a general medical check-up. Here are some additional symptoms of bladder cancer: • Feeling as if you need to urinate, even when your bladder isn’t full. • Having trouble urinating or having a weak urine stream. • Having to get up to urinate more often than normal • Pain or burning during urination Bladder cancer may be diagnosed with cystoscopy (possibly with biopsy), urine cytology, x-rays, or a CT scan, and it’s essential to check with your healthcare provider if you have concerns.
