Our hearts are still full from Celebrate Life 2025! 💙

We were proud to honor 358 five-year cancer survivors, many of whom joined us to walk the red carpet and receive an engraved leaf marking their milestone anniversary. The leaf represents their place on the City of Hope Survivor Tree, a testament to the strength and hope each person showed throughout their battle with cancer.

To all of our Celebrants: your strength provides hope and lights the way for so many others.

Annette L. was just 38 and planning her wedding when she received heartbreaking news — a diagnosis of 2B triple negative breast cancer.

She didn’t let that stop her.

Annette continued planning her big day while undergoing treatment at City of Hope Chicago where she was cared for by a compassionate team including Drs. Wi******er, Khan, and King. In a gesture of kindness and attention to detail, Dr. Wi******er placed her port in her arm so the scar wouldn’t show when she wore her wedding dress.

She went through chemo, immunotherapy, radiation, and a lumpectomy — all while working full-time and never missing a beat. She got married, went on her honeymoon, and finished treatment in February 2024.

Today, Annette is writing a new chapter — as a proud cancer survivor, advocate and new mom to a sweet baby girl.

“I will tell my story whenever I can. If it can change one person, that’s worth it.”

As we honor breast cancer survivors, support those in treatment, and remember lives lost, we also want to focus on prevention.

In this video, Edward Kaplan, M.D., talks about the importance of BRCA gene screening—a hereditary risk factor that can help identify breast and ovarian cancer risks before symptoms appear.

"The benefit of finding the BRCA gene is knowing that a person is at risk, so we can do things to modify that risk," said Dr. Kaplan.

Ask your doctor about genetic counseling and testing if you are considered at a high risk of developing breast cancer, are part of the Ashkenazi Jewish community, or have a family history of women's cancers.

🌟 Neil Dunavin, M.D., M.S., joins the Department of Hematology and Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation this week with expertise, energy, and compassion.

His path to medicine began early, working in a hospital in his teens and inspired by his mother, a nurse. During his training, experiences with world-renowned leaders in leukemia and bone marrow transplantation helped shape his commitment to caring for people with blood cancers.

Dr. Dunavin specializes in acute and chronic leukemias, myeloproliferative neoplasms, myelodysplastic syndromes, bone marrow failure syndromes, rare blood diseases, stem cell transplantation, and cellular therapy. His goal is to ensure patients not only have access to the latest therapies and clinical trials, but also feel truly supported through every step of their treatment journey.

Outside the hospital, Dr. Dunavin enjoys reading, cooking, Masters swimming, volunteering, and spending time with his wife and young son—often at the park or pool.

Welcome to the team, Dr. Dunavin!
