Darlene Kipling – Breast & Colon Cancer Survivor
A long-time employee of Cancer Treatment Centers of America (CTCA), Darlene Kipling has battled both breast cancer and colon cancer. In December of 1993, she was diagnosed with colon cancer. Three years later, in 1996, she found out she had breast cancer. In this video, Darlene talks about how she battled both disease and emerged as a survivor with the help of CTCA:
“You don’t have to be at CTCA very long until you really recognize that there is a difference there. There is a difference in terms of how you are treated, in terms of the responsiveness of staff to you. In terms of other patients who are there at CTCA, encouraging and giving you hope—because they have already received hope. They have already received kindness and care and consideration.
We as cancer patients, for whatever reason, have been dealt this kind of pain. But, there is hope on the other side. And there is great life after cancer…”
