Pero Antoinette, de 61 a\u00f1os, de Fairhaven, no es de las que se rinden ante los problemas. Siempre optimista, dijo que se hab\u00eda hecho a la idea de que el c\u00e1ncer no iba a ser su fin. Y seis a\u00f1os despu\u00e9s, est\u00e1 libre de c\u00e1ncer y deseando pasar m\u00e1s tiempo con su marido, sus tres hijos y sus tres nietos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Se lo atribuye a la \"gente incre\u00edble y maravillosa\" del Centro oncol\u00f3gico de Southcoast Health en Fairhaven<\/a> - junto con su propia determinaci\u00f3n.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"No iba a dejar que el c\u00e1ncer consumiera toda mi vida. Quer\u00eda vivir\", afirma.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Antoinette fumaba desde hac\u00eda casi 40 a\u00f1os y hab\u00eda empezado a toser de forma persistente. Su hijo Steven la inst\u00f3 a hacerse un chequeo, y su m\u00e9dico de cabecera, un m\u00e9dico de Southcoast ya jubilado, la envi\u00f3 a hacerse radiograf\u00edas de t\u00f3rax que revelaron lesiones en los pulmones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Michael Barretti,<\/a> Director M\u00e9dico de Cuidados Pulmonares y Cr\u00edticos, revis\u00f3 su caso y le diagnostic\u00f3 c\u00e1ncer de pulm\u00f3n no microc\u00edtico no escamoso en estadio 4. La deriv\u00f3 al Southcoast Cancer Care Center de Fairhaven. La remiti\u00f3 al Southcoast Cancer Care Center de Fairhaven. Decidi\u00f3 buscar una segunda opini\u00f3n y se reuni\u00f3 con m\u00e9dicos del Dana-Farber Brigham Cancer Center de Foxborough, quienes le dijeron que el plan de tratamiento que Southcoast Health le hab\u00eda indicado era el mismo que ellos recomendar\u00edan. Decidi\u00f3 someterse al tratamiento en el Cancer Care Center, convenientemente situado en su ciudad natal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Habr\u00eda tenido que pasar meses yendo y viniendo a Boston para recibir tratamiento. Decid\u00ed quedarme en Southcoast, en Fairhaven. Era una opci\u00f3n mucho mejor para m\u00ed y mi familia\", dijo. \"Me ingresaron enseguida\".<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Se reuni\u00f3 con Dra. Edress Othman<\/a>Jefe de Oncolog\u00eda M\u00e9dica, que estar\u00eda a cargo de su cuidado.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Me encant\u00f3 que fuera tan sincero\", dijo. \"'No es bueno', me dijo. Me dio nueve meses. Le dije que iba a demostrar que se equivocaba\".<\/p>\n\n\n\n

El Dr. Othman empez\u00f3 a administrar quimioterapia a Antoinette de inmediato, y durante m\u00e1s de cuatro a\u00f1os acudi\u00f3 cada tres semanas al centro oncol\u00f3gico para que le inyectaran varios f\u00e1rmacos de quimioterapia, entre ellos pemetrexed, y el inmunoter\u00e1pico pembrolizumab.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Con el tiempo, sus exploraciones rutinarias mostraron que las lesiones se estaban reduciendo, y el Dr. Othman redujo sus tratamientos de quimioterapia a una vez al mes. M\u00e1s de un a\u00f1o despu\u00e9s, no tiene c\u00e1ncer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Me fue muy bien. No estaba enferma, no estaba mareada y ten\u00eda apetito\", dijo, y pudo seguir trabajando en su empleo de ama de llaves en South Dartmouth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hoy, cuando se re\u00fane con el Dr. Othman, sus enfermeras y los dem\u00e1s profesionales de Southcoast que la atienden, siente que est\u00e1 visitando a unos amigos. Conoce todos sus nombres y detalles de sus vidas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Al principio, (el Dr. Othman) parec\u00eda muy reservado. Ahora ese hombre me abraza, se r\u00ede y sonr\u00ede\", dijo. \"Te hace sentir como en familia\".<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hoy, Antoinette est\u00e1 ocupada viviendo su vida y disfrutando del tiempo con su marido Steven y su familia y amigos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Le dije a mi familia que si dej\u00e1bamos que esto nos consumiera, iba a ganar\", dijo. \"La familia estaba a mi lado, los amigos estaban a mi lado, hab\u00eda tarjetas en el correo todos los d\u00edas, y yo ten\u00eda una buena actitud. Me dije: 'No me voy a morir. Esto no va a pasar'\".<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ella y su marido est\u00e1n planeando un viaje a Colorado para visitar a su hija, algo que no habr\u00eda hecho antes de su diagn\u00f3stico porque ten\u00eda miedo a volar. Ahora, dice, como resultado de lo que ha pasado, \"no me da miedo subirme a un avi\u00f3n\".<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00bfSu consejo?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"No des nada por sentado\", dijo. \"Si quieres hacer algo, hazlo. No esperes\".<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 Y no tiene palabras para describir la atenci\u00f3n que ha recibido en el Southcoast Health Cancer Center de Fairhaven.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Ese sitio es incre\u00edble. Le digo a todo el mundo lo geniales que son\", afirm\u00f3. \"De arriba abajo, es el mejor lugar al que podr\u00edas ir. Estos m\u00e9dicos son incre\u00edbles. Sientes que realmente est\u00e1n ah\u00ed para ti\".<\/p>\n\n\n\n
