After his wife’s sudden illness and death, photographer Mike McGregor launched Janesi Comfort, a new line of luxury robes and blankets adding a high-end touch to the hospital experience.⁠
⁠
“You're sitting in that hospital room and you've got people surrounding you that are all talking in medical jargon. I want to have that fabric that just slightly rubs against your skin and you're like, ‘Holy cow is that nice!’” says Mike. “It reminds you that you've got a team fighting for you.” ⁠

Integrative medicine has become increasingly popular, alleviating many of the painful symptoms from cancer treatment. ⁠
⁠
Though some less-regulated integrative medicine practices can indeed be harmful (as we've explored in past issues), there are many documented success stories of more popular methods. ⁠
⁠
According to Dr. Michelle “Shelly” Smekens, a naturopathic practitioner, the important distinction between success and failure is a patient’s expectations of integrative medicine. ⁠

Morgan Bellock's decision to freeze her eggs ended up not only saving her life but changed the entire course of it.

It started in June 2017 with the initial ultrasound that Morgan needed to start the procedure. There, doctors found what they believed to be a large ovarian cyst.

“When I left the surgery, I remember them saying to me, ‘We got it all and we got something else,’” Morgan says. “I thought, ‘Great, two for one.’”

When Morgan went back to her doctor for what she thought was a simple follow-up procedure, she learned she had immature teratoma (stage I) ovarian cancer. While the cyst found during her initial scans had been benign, a second lump they found hiding behind it had been the cancerous tumor.

Morgan Bellock was 34 and in a dead-end relationship when she decided to freeze her eggs. She didn’t realize then that this move would save her life.

During an initial ultrasound Morgan needed to start the procedure, doctors found what they believed to be a large ovarian cyst and later turned out to be a cancerous tumor.

Her doctor explained that if she hadn’t come to freeze her eggs, she most likely would have physically noticed something within a year or two—but at that point, the cancer would have progressed far.

Driver John Andretti was known for his speed, versatility and ambition when it came to racing in NASCAR and IndyCar, racking up numerous career highlights over the years and carving out a spot for himself as one of the most popular and notable racers of his time. Now, a year after he lost his battle with colon cancer in 2020, his family is continuing that legacy for the cancer community.⁠
⁠
Click our link in bio to learn more about how the #CheckIt4Andretti foundation is spreading awareness of colorectal cancer and is providing colonoscopies for those without insurance coverage.

In 2017, after being diagnosed with stage III colorectal cancer at 53, John Andretti began the #CheckIt4Andretti campaign. While he was initially hesitant to go public with his cancer diagnosis, Andretti recognized the importance of raising awareness of the disease.

After losing his battle to colon cancer in 2020, his family decided to take the campaign one step further. To continue spreading awareness of colorectal cancer, #CheckIt4Andretti has now become a registered foundation that provides colonoscopies for those without insurance coverage or those whose insurance will not cover the procedure due to age or circumstance.

Bridget Stillwell inherited her mother’s sense of humor, her love to care for others and her love for running. But, she also inherited the BRCA1 gene mutation from her.⁠
⁠
Although she didn't learn she carried the mutation until she was 21, deep down, Bridget always knew there was a cancer bullet careening towards her, gaining speed with each passing millisecond. ⁠
⁠
"Just looking at my family history alone tells a grave story. It’s riddled with countless young women who died from breast and ovarian cancers. But what my family tree doesn't show is that these ancestors were strong and determined women who suffered great pain and loss, as fighters."⁠
⁠
Click our link in bio to learn more about Bridget's "courageous, reckless and brave" decision to have her breasts and ovaries removed to avoid a cancer diagnosis.

Bridget Stillwell knew that every woman, except for one, in her family history that carried the BRCA mutation had developed either breast or ovarian cancer.

Her great-grandmother was 65 when she died of ovarian cancer. Her grandmother was 44 when she died of ovarian cancer. Her mother was then just 32 years old when she was diagnosed with breast cancer.

Given her family history, Bridget chose to have her breasts and ovaries removed to avoid a cancer diagnosis.

Millennials can feel left behind in the cancer community when receiving a diagnosis in the prime of their life, especially in comparison to their younger or older counterparts. @StupidCancer is changing that.

Stupid Cancer recognizes the challenges of young adults with cancer including infertility, loss of identity and independence, lack or loss of insurance and the stalling of career development. One of the biggest challenges, though, is isolation, the ending of which is entrenched in Stupid Cancer’s mission.

"Just let me know what I can do.” Those eight simple words probably mean well, but aren’t particularly helpful, are they? After telling your friends, co-workers and family that you are facing a cancer diagnosis, this may have been their first response.⁠

The caretakers and supporters of those who have been diagnosed with cancer are more crucial to a patient’s journey than anyone or anything else. ⁠
⁠
You may be a chemo buddy, scheduler, workout companion or all three. Whether a supporter goes to one chemo treatment or all of them, makes all the phone calls needed for treatment, takes the patient for a walk and holds their hand, the patient’s support system is an integral part of the process. ⁠
⁠
Supporters can be the rock that a patient needs, selflessly putting everything on hold because there is no other option for them and their loved one. But, when taking care of others, it is also imperative for supporters to take care of themselves. ⁠

Part-time certified fitness instructor Jennifer Sinkwitts was slated to run the Boston Marathon after an impressive qualifying time—then she was diagnosed with breast cancer. ⁠
⁠
"I told them that Boston was on my bucket list, and if I was going to die, I had to run it. We agreed that if one cancer was detected, I’d run. Any more cancers, and I wouldn't." ⁠
⁠
Click our link in bio to learn more about how running the Boston Marathon helped remind Jennifer of her strength throughout her cancer journey.

For Jennifer Sinkwitts, running the Boston Marathon was tumultuous.

"I had never felt so consumed by fear and sadness, but when I crossed that finish line, I felt strong," she says.

Throughout her breast cancer journey, when she felt weak with nothing left to give, she remembered Boston and found the strength to push through.
