Gabrielle Morton’s cancer journey began with a challenging diagnosis, met with the expertise and compassion of the team at GBMC’s Sandra and Malcolm Berman Cancer Institute. Dr. Sara Fogarty’s approach, both straightforward and caring, outlined a clear and hopeful treatment plan. The successful insertion of Gabrielle’s port was a critical step in her treatment, followed by meticulously administered infusions. During these sessions, Gabrielle found comfort in the attentiveness and knowledge of the nursing staff, a rare sense of tranquility in the face of adversity.

A Community of Care:

At the heart of Gabrielle's experience was the warmth and support extended beyond medical procedures. Ms. Sandy, the welcoming presence at the front desk of the radiation center, offered smiles and conversations that lightened Gabrielle's spirits. This sense of community reached its peak when the staff celebrated the end of her radiation treatment with a dance, symbolizing victory and joy.

Life Beyond Treatment:

Post-treatment, Gabrielle reflects on the precious moments she continues to enjoy - watching her children and grandchildren thrive, moments made possible by the care she received at GBMC’s Sandra and Malcolm Berman Cancer Institute. These experiences are not just milestones in her life but are testaments to the life-altering care provided by GBMC.
