UNSUNG Heroes

How does one define a hero? Hundreds of suggestions can be found online and in dictionaries, but the common thread always comes down to courage. And when it comes to cancer, there’s courage — and heroism — embodied in patients, caregivers, and medical professionals. Each one of them would deny being heroic. After all, they’re just doing what needs to be done, they would say. But what they do goes beyond the ordinary. On May 15, more than 300 people joined Cancer Family Care to honor 41 individuals for being exemplars of compassion and courage at the 16th annual Joslin Haggart Yeiser Unsung Hero Awards.

UNSUNG HEROES

It was an evening of inspiration, as master of ceremonies Cammy Dierking put it. We know that cancer’s impact goes beyond the patient, affecting the family, the community, and the medical team. To read the nomination statements in the program is not only inspiring, but it’s also awe-inspiring.

The evening began with the presentation of the Pauline Cohen Founder’s Award, named for Cancer Family Care’s founder, and is the highest honor CFC awards. The award honors an individual or group that transforms a seemingly small idea into a project that has enduring impact, a perfect description of the Van Kirk family, this year’s winners.

John Van Kirk was diagnosed with cancer in 1979, and his fiancée Rosemary refused to let cancer get in the way of their wedding, which took place the following year. During John’s teaching career at Xavier University, he and Rosemary established the Wine Merchant, one of the city’s premier wine stores. In 1980, John and Rosemary hosted

CFC’s first wine-tasting event at a private home, providing the expertise and the wine. From that modest beginning, the CFC Wine Tasting & Auction is now CFC’s annual major fundraiser, held at the Manor House in Mason, Ohio, netting over $250,000 last year. The Van Kirk family’s involvement continued, even after Rosemary’s death in 2012, with their daughter Kathee. John passed away April 24, 2018, three days after his 88th birthday.

The Community Impact Award is presented to an individual or group that has made outstanding contributions within the cancer community. This year’s recipient is Steelcraft/Allegion, a company in Blue Ash that manufactures metal doors and frames, with 720 employees. Employees are required to wear safety equipment on the floor. A few years ago, Mike Graver and VaLenda Brown came up with the idea to sell pink safety gear during October, which is National Breast Cancer Awareness month. They planned to donate the proceeds to Cancer Family Care. The first year, $1,200 was raised. The following year, VaLenda amped up the efforts to

include bake sales, raffles, and corporate involvement, which doubled the contribution. In 2017, VaLenda and Mike reached out to customers and vendors, and presented CFC’s executive director, Jill Settlemyre, with a check for more than $13,000. “Cancer has touched so many of us, directly or indirectly,” said Victor Arnstein, Steelcraft/Allegion’s director of human resources. “This project is important and our core values all come into play.”

“It’s an honor to be recognized for doing the right thing,” VaLenda said, with tears welling in her eyes. “I challenge everyone here to ask someone, ‘How are you doing today?’”

Following the dinner, Unsung Hero Awards were presented to the class of 2018. Patients were cited for courage in the face of a daunting diagnosis and difficult

treatment, as well as the determination to live life to the fullest. Caregivers were recognized for their dedication, devotion, and advocacy for family members, and oncology professionals were commended for their empathy, compassion, and professionalism. These individuals personify heroism beyond showing courage and strength; they inspire their families, their colleagues, and their communities to become heroes to others. It was especially moving to see how mutual the inspiration was. In fact, there was more than one instance of a patient and an oncology professional nominating each other.

In presenting the Patient Unsung Heroes, Don Jansen, a 33-year survivor of cancer and an 18-month survivor of pancreatic cancer, summed it up: “Looking around, I see the hope. And there’s much more work that needs to be done.”

A cancer diagnosis is a shock at any age, but for a young adult, it goes beyond shocking. Michelle Dickstein doesn’t mince words when she recalls her reaction to being diagnosed with Stage 2b estrogen-based breast cancer three years ago. “I was shoved in front of a truck.” She was 29, the mother of an 18-month-old daughter, and working part time as a school psychologist for Miamisburg Community Schools.

She and her husband, a clinical psychologist, were thrown into the bewildering flurry of doctor’s appointments, treatment options, and information overload. Michelle first underwent a lumpectomy, followed by a unilateral mastectomy and chemotherapy. Among the many pamphlets she brought home was one for free therapeutic oncology massages provided by Cancer Family Care. For Michelle, the massage sessions served as an introduction to another source of support.

“The massage therapist was terrific. She talked about what she was doing, but she was also a good listener,” Michelle said. “She told me, ‘You know, there’s a therapist at Cancer Family Care who I think would be a good match for you.’It wasn’t until then that I thought, yeah, I need someone I can talk to about this.”

That someone was Tammy Miller-Ploetz. Michelle said Tammy not only was a good match, but the counseling sessions also boosted her spirits while she underwent chemotherapy. “I know that many people go to counseling after they’ve completed treatment, but for me, going during my treatment was very helpful. I could vent about how I was feeling and how this affected literally everything in my life,” she said.

One important concern was having another child. Since Michelle was undergoing chemotherapy, she and her husband chose to have a surrogate pregnancy, and last year, their daughter Sydney was born. Michelle completed her sessions with Tammy last April, and she is one of CFC’s most passionate advocates. “I tell everybody all the time about how helpful CFC was. For a lot of people with cancer, scheduling may be an issue but now that there are different locations, it may be easier. I do know that the massage treatments are more exciting,” she said with a laugh.

“It is so rewarding as a therapist to see a young survivor grow through this process and move on towards healthy living and a new, exciting part of life,” Tammy Miller-Ploetz wrote in an email. “Seeing her grow her family in such a

remarkable way was so special. It was really my privilege to have worked with Michelle. She’s a beautiful person.”

Michelle embodies vitality and dedication that extend to reaching out to other cancer patients, especially young adults.

“I’m passionate about connecting younger patients with each other. I am working with other young breast cancer survivors/fighters to promote the local Young Survivor Coalition. Our goal is to provide peer support, and we also hope to match newly diagnosed people with a peer who has a similar type and stage of breast cancer. We currently have monthly meet-ups that typically have three to 10 people attending. This group is everything to me, Michelle.”

Michelle acknowledges that getting someone to accept any form of help after a cancer diagnosis can be difficult, but she always frames her conversations in terms of her own experience — and CFC is always a part of it.

“I know it’s overwhelming when someone gets a cancer diagnosis. You’re in survival mode and that’s what you focus on. So, when it happens to someone I know, if they’re willing to talk with me, I’ll tell them what my experience was and what I did. CFC and Tammy are a huge part of that, Michelle said.”

IN HER WORDS

“I LOVE HELPING AND paying it forward

WHEN I CAN.”

Shortly before Shannon Marks died from a rare form of liver cancer in November 2013, she told her husband, Dereck, to work with Juliane Belisle, Shannon’s counselor at Cancer Family Care’s office in Florence, Ky. Dereck was already well acquainted with CFC’s services. “Shannon needed extra help and support after she got her diagnosis,” Dereck said. “I was responsible for bringing her to her sessions and waited for her. It helped to be able to utilize the services for myself.”

While there were few patients with Shannon’s diagnosis, Dereck said that CFC had resources that provided crucial information. “Knowing that others are going through a similar situation is something to help you get through, he said.”

Dereck waited for six months after Shannon passed away before meeting with Juliane. After working fulltime for Humana, he took a part-time job, so he could be both mom and dad to his family. Shannon and Dereck had three young children ages 4, 7, and 8; and each had a daughter from a previous marriage.

“You realize you’re all these kids have. You’re the emotional leader of the family, and that you have to be as strong as you possibly can,” he said.

Even working part time, commuting to Florence from the family’s home in Hebron would have been logistically difficult for Dereck, but he worked with Juliane to come up with a flexible schedule.

“Juliane saw our sons in school once a month or once every couple of weeks to touch base with them. She even came out to the house to meet with 4-year-old McKenna. That was another good thing,” he added, “Not having to worry about coming in to the Florence office.”

Juliane’s impact on the family continued after they concluded counseling sessions. The children continue to attend Camp Courage, and this is where Dereck says he and his family feel a sense of continuity with Juliane.

“Juliane still recognizes the kids when they come to camp and remembers each of their names. She has a smile on her face. She picks up on their personalities and makes small talk with them in the first couple of minutes. I feel that even though she’s not involved heavily, there’s still that connection because Shannon told Juliane stories about our kids.”

The kids are doing well, with both boys actively involved in sports. Dereck’s parents live nearby, as do Shannon’s sister and her husband, and Dereck’s daughter. They were part of the caregiving circle during Shannon’s illness and continue to help, especially with the children. For Dereck, it was equally important to have CFC resources.

“Not closing yourself off to help is the most important thing,” he said. “You can try to be a supermom or superdad all at once, but at the end of the day, sometimes you just have to say, ‘I need some help getting this kid here; putting the other kid to bed.’

“CFC’s programs and staff were so important. The information and opportunities they provided made a big difference to Shannon and to all of us.”

JOHN EDWARD VAN KIRK, PHD1930-2018John Edward Van Kirk, PhD, passed away Tuesday, April 24, 2018, three days after celebrating his 88th birthday. He was born April 21, 1930, to the late Nelson and Jewel Van Kirk in Chicago, Ill. On April 25, 1958, John married his beloved wife, Rosemary, who preceded him in death in 2012. He was fortunate

to have a loving four-year relationship with Maggie Malloy until her passing in 2017. After serving in the Korean War, John began his career in the chemical business. After earning his PhD in the late 1960s, John began teaching at Xavier University, retiring in 1995. During his teaching career, John and Rosemary started a retail wine business, now the Wine Merchant. In 1980, John and Rosemary founded Cancer Family Care’s first fundraiser, which has now become an annual event. In retirement, John and Rosemary traveled extensively in the wine regions of France, Italy, and California, hosting many friends. John is survived by his brother Fred, daughter Kathee, son-in-law Hugo Tostado, son Jay, nieces Baba and Mimi, and many grandchildren.

CFC WIG PROGRAM

IN MEMORY

A cancer diagnosis is scary enough, without needing to worry about all the other changes the body goes through to battle the cancer cells. Chemotherapy drugs are powerful medications that attack rapidly growing cancer cells. Unfortunately, these drugs also attack other rapidly growing cells in the body — including those in the hair roots.

Since our hair is a unique part of our identity, suddenly losing it as a result of cancer treatment can be stressful for both men and women. “Appearance-related concerns are very normal and to be expected throughout the cancer experience,” says Carol Huber, LISW-S, Director of Clinical Services for Cancer Family Care.

Changes in appearance stir up many emotions in a cancer patient and often affect the whole family. “I thought I was okay with being bald during my treatment until my daughter started asking me not to come to her events,” a CFC client said. “That was the moment when I realized cancer is truly a family affair, and I needed to wear a wig for my kids.”

For more than a decade, CFC has been providing free wigs — in a variety of hair colors, lengths, and styles—plus hats and scarves to any cancer patient in the Greater Cincinnati/NKY area, thanks to the generous support of the Waddell Family Foundation. The Waddell Family Healing Hands Program has afforded CFC the opportunity to fit nearly 800 patients with wigs in an effort to provide a sense of normalcy during their cancer journey. “My new wig was the one thing that allowed me to continue my everyday activities with confidence,” a CFC client said. “I can actually look in the mirror and smile at myself.” Since hair loss is almost always temporary, CFC continually accepts donations of new and gently used wigs and will professionally clean them for reuse.

For more information or to schedule a wig appointment, call our main office at 513.731.3346.

ERIC YEISER1925-2017Eric B. Yeiser, “Buck,” son of the late Louise FleischmannTate and Henry Craig Yeiser, died on December 25, 2017, at the age of 92, after a lifetime of generous service to others. He was preceded in death by his wife of over 40 years, Joslin Haggart Yeiser. Together they raised four loving children, all surviving: Lin Yeiser Coonan

of San Francisco, Calif.; Louise Yeiser McAlpin (KC) of Harbor Springs, Mich.; Eric B. Yeiser, Jr., of Gleneden Beach, Ore.; and Jane Yeiser Woods of Sarasota, Fla. Also surviving are his grandchildren, Lindsey Coonan, Nicholas Priess, Jeffrey Priess, James Woods, Joslin Woods, and Eric Woods. He was predeceased by his beloved brothers, Charles F. Yeiser and Henry Craig Yeiser, and is survived by his beloved brother-in-law, Dr. George C. Kaiser of St. Louis, Mo. He was predeceased by Margaret Kite Yeiser, whom he married in 1994, who gave him a large, loving stepfamily to whom he was a wonderful friend and role model. Throughout his lifetime, Buck was active in many civic organizations. He founded the University of Cincinnati College of Nursing, the E. B. Yeiser Family Foundation, and the Hayfields Foundation. He was a disbursing trustee of the Charles Fleischmann Endowment Fund, which makes grants to deserving college students, particularly those in nursing. After his wife Joddy’s passing, he founded the annual Joslin Haggart Yeiser Unsung Heroes Award for CFC, and was its

CAMP COURAGE KIDS ROCK!Camp Courage is a one-day camp experience specifically for children ages 5 to 14 whose lives have been touched by cancer in some way. Children and adolescents who attend may be coping with a cancer diagnosis in their families, may have had a recent loss due to cancer, or perhaps are being treated for cancer themselves. This year we had 45 campers attend our annual camp held at Camp Joy in Clarksville, Ohio.

We had five groups of campers, based on age. Each group rotated through five stations in the morning. Cancer Family Care’s clinical staff led the activity at each themed station. At the Yoga/Relaxation Station, campers learned deep breathing and Yoga poses to encourage relaxation. At the Art Expression Station, the campers made a quilt square and painted rocks as a form of art therapy. They took their rocks home. The quilt squares are being made into a quilt by a talented volunteer. The Camp Courage quilt will be auctioned off in the fall.

Campers were able to talk about anger and things that make them mad at the Anger Release Station. Once they were able to identify their trigger points and put them on the wall, they were able to release their anger by throwing water balloons at the wall. During Group Talk Time, campers discussed cancer and its effect on their families. At the Group Game Stations, GaGa, a popular Camp Joy game, enabled the kids to use physical exercise as a coping mechanism while still having fun.

In the afternoon, older campers participated in the high ropes course. The purpose of the activity was to give campers a chance to have fun and challenge themselves by trying something that is new and different to them. The younger campers participated in a series of activities that included archery, a nature walk, a nature center, and a “swing by choice” low ropes course.

The main goal of camp is for children to experience a fun, stress-free day while learning some healthy ways to express and cope with their feelings. Camp Courage is also a wonderful opportunity for kids to interact with others who are dealing with a cancer diagnosis in the family and to know that they are not alone in their journey. We are grateful to provide this opportunity every year to children in the Greater Cincinnati community and look forward to next year!
