I wish I would have been there! I had no idea that @LiveLikeBella founders, and Bella’s parents, would be at @naptprotons annual meeting. Bella’s presence and impact continues to be felt by families across the country and world. @ASTRO_org @SpeedofLightFdn

Just learned about the founders of the Live Like Bella Foundation who also happen to be the parents of Bella. This 4 year old little girl was suddenly paralyzed and not expected to live more than months. Instead, our friend @ASTRO_Chair Dr Sameer Keole chose to treat 9 sites, an aggressive proton approach. He was at University of Fl at the time. She was later able to walk again and gain 6 years of life!!!! LeBron James wrote live like Bella on his sneakers and she went viral. Today countries and children benefit from this foundation around the world from, financial, psychological and help with funeral costs if the worst occurs! Excellent mission and proud of our friend Sameer 👍🏻👊🏻👏🏻 @naptprotons

Best answer from the thread, and probably true for every comparison of proton and photon radiotherapy

Scott Hamilton (Olympic Gold Medalist 1984) just called proton therapy a beautiful elegant treatment modality 👍🏻👊🏻. He is a cancer survivor. @naptprotons @OfficialRCCSInc

One of the stories was a patient specific play list. Love it! Reminded me of a 19 yr old girl I treated in 1990, her favorite song was by Kon Can…. I haven’t thought about that song until this patient shared her story. I played it at full volume during her treatment. She was scared of treatment and when she was done, she said it erased all her fears and made the experience positive for her. I was a kid myself and it brought a big smile to my face remembering this story especially after the giant smile she had walking out of treatment room and scared tears walking in. I hope she’s doing g great today!!!!

One of my favorite sessions at conferences…. Hearing from patients and what their experiences were like. What was great, what was good, what was terrible, what was preventable and what can we all do to make the journey as a positive part of a not great finding. One of the proton patients had some fun with her loss of hair….. I loved her approach and so did the rest of us here! Good for her and good for us in the oncology world 🌍.

Large Cystic Vistibular Schwannoma shows earlier and greater volumetric reduction post SRS. SRS may be a less invasive VS option to surgery which is used in the majority of selected patients. @the_RSS @OfficialRCCSInc

Unmylinated nerve fibers are way more sensitive to irradiation. Very interesting talk on radiation treatment to nerve rather than tumor?? now in an international phase two study. The goal being pain relief. Limited toxicity. Fully irradiating the abutting tumor is showing longer term pain mgmt. but study is on-going. @the_RSS @OfficialRCCSInc

Last week, I was diagnosed with breast cancer. Nearly one in eight women in the United States will face this diagnosis. Every day, these women continue to raise their families, go to work, and serve their communities with strength and determination. I now join their ranks. I am grateful to have an outstanding team of doctors who detected the cancer early and are guiding my care, and I am encouraged by a very good prognosis. I am also deeply thankful for the support and encouragement of President Trump as I undergo treatment and continue serving in my role as White House Chief of Staff.
