Women who join her all share a common bond. They all have stage 4 lung cancer. Living with stage 4 cancer means that you have, you know, a bomb strapped to your chest and it could go off at anytime. It all started five years ago when she got a call from her doctor. But i remember vividly he called me while we were out having dinner and left a voicemail. Before she knew it, vicki was sitting in an oncologists office. The word cancer comes out of the doctors mouth, so thats kind of not good. Vicki never smoked a day in her life, but yet this 48yearold mother of two has stage 4 lung cancer. I was asking them. Im like okay, so how long is treatment and when are we done with this and no one had told me up until then that it was stage 4. So it was incurable and so, you know, i basically have to live with this condition the rest of my life and the best Case Scenario is that i live with this condition the rest of my life. Vicki is now 53 and the treatments have been brutal. Theyve given her high Blood Pressure and high cholesterol. The cancer has now spread to her abdomen, but its not the physical side effects that hurt the most. Vicki has two daughters who were 13 and 15 when she was first diagnosed. They know that i have cancer and we dont talk about sort of staging. We dont talk about cures or anything like that. They just know that ive had cancer for five years now. A few years ago vicki was asked to participate in a Research Program at ucsf called fans standing for female asians never smokers launched 15 years ago by dr. Gomez and dr. Chang, a first of its kind study in the u. S. On why lung cancer rates were rising among asian females who never smoked. Lung cancer rates actually have been declining over the past several decades, but what was sort of emerged as an unusual observation is the exception to that trend was among Asian American females. The doctors hoped the fans study leads to the development of more preventive measures and screening, but also grab the attention of the folks with the deep pockets. Right now less than 1 of funding from the National Institute of health goes to diseases that impact the Asian American community. There is this perception that asians dont get sick. We have very low rates of disease. So nihs primary focus is to fund Health Research relies on those statistics. Its just made us very strong advocates to really give a voice to be able to speak out about the need to look at specific asianette theft populations to give them representation, to provide the data. Vicki isnt spending her energy wondering why or how she got lung cancer. Well, when you get diagnosed with cancer, i think you learn to control the things that you can and let go of the things you cant and i have not tried to probe why i got cancer. I dont think its like a healthy exercise. Instead shes turning her pain into purpose by reaching out to other women like 34yearold kit ho who she recruited to also be part of the fans study. If my tissue, my saliva can help the researchers to find more medicine or find more ways to identify people early, then i want to be part of it. Kit was diagnosed on thanksgiving of last year. Doctors discovered four tumors in her brain that they believe were linked to lung cancer. Just like vicki, she never smoked. Shes also a mom. I was just thinking why did i get it . Yeah. The most thing i was thinking when i was diagnosed was my two little kids because they are 2 and 4. Lung cancer, being a nurse, i know its not a good outcome. Kit will often join vicki on her walks. They are allies in the same fight. Its like a safety blanket for me to know other people are in the area. If cancer has taught her anything, its that life can change in an instant. Vicki is focusing on the things that bring her joy, family, friends, and helping others know that even in their hardest moments they wont have to walk this path alone. I want to do everything i can to make this diagnosis sort of meaningful for the world. Now the fans study looks at a patients genetics and Family History as well as environmental and lifestyle exposures. Theyre still looking for participants to join the study, especially older asian women who do not have lung cancer. For more information on the fans study, just go to our website, kpix. Com.
