Women Helping Women: Breast Health Collaborative of Texas

Take a handful of determined Texas women who refused to accept the terms "no access" and "uninsured," give them a little more than five years and you have the Breast Health Collaborative of Texas, a public-private partnership that works to assure that any woman with breast cancer in Texas has access to both detection and, when necessary, treatment.

Frances Arzu, founder of Pink Phuree BCS
Dragon Boat Team and "Harvey," a fund-raising
ribbon & brainchild of Susan Rathke.
That the group has been recognized both nationally and internationally comes as no surprise to me, especially after attending the organization's sixth (my second) Breast Health Summit this past week in Houston.

All the big players from the Houston Medical Center are members but a key factor of the Collaborative's effectiveness is that it may be the only place where various advocacy groups -- the people actually on the front lines with the underserved -- are members as well, from grass roots advocates for boat people, Asian, Afro-American and Latina women to the Young Survival Coalition, M.D. Anderson, Memorial Herman, Komen-Houston as well as well as professors from the University of Texas Health Science Center and School of Public Health.  All good.

Content?  The program included a number of animated and powerful panels and talks on survivorship as well as decoding health care reform and the role patient navigators will play.  During a break-out session Venus Gines (who could ever forget her name?) explained some of the Latina woman's barriers to screening and how Dia De La Mujer Latina works not against -- but through-- those fears with community-based promatoras and "health fiestas." These programs give me hope and enthusiasm for extending access one step further: from the fiestas to phone applications from web-based programs.

This is point where we as "epatients" and digital health advocates have work to do. Understanding of social media and its potential in addressing health care was fairly low in this group. More than one speaker placed blogs (like this one or  Brenda Coffee's) on the same playing field as Farmville, not as another avenue for improving access or literacy. There's much education to do on all fronts to keep the playing fields equal. If groups advocating for the underserved are missing connections via social media then we haven't yet fully completed the circle.

But thanks to the Breast Health Collaborative of Texas, we can at least contemplate what going full circle might truly mean for underserved women and their families.

Consider this example:  A working mother of three gets a call one morning from her sister, who's standing in a line for a mammogram at a health fiesta in Corpus Christi. She picks up her mother, brother and sister-in-law and off they go. There's music, food, and a place for the children to play. All four women -- who have never been screened -- now have baseline mammograms. But the other brother-in-law, the one she brought back later in the afternoon?  He was diagnosed, and successfully treated, for an early stage breast cancer.

If we add a social media component to this model an app is in place as a reminder with the location and date of  next year's fair. This data, along with any test results, are stored as EMR in a secure portal that the patient can access. If she wants, she can upload additional information from the breast health portal to her phone.*** All the information is one place for any further referral if necessary, and an entire network of people now have an entry point to the health care system.  

That works for me. Question:  do you know where to refer a friend without insurance for breast and cervical cancer screening?  This is what the Breast Health Collaborative does for women in Texas.

   #  #  #                                          

**These examples are modified from actual cases presented during a break-out session.  One of the women who attended a fiesta screening program returned with her husband, who'd been too embarrassed to have a lump he'd found in his own breast examined. In the Latina community, involving the entire family is critical.

Thomas Moores Urges "Survivors" to Use Their Experience to Human Care for Others


"The key to seeing the world’s soul, and in the process wakening one’s own, is to get over the confusion by which we think that fact is real and imagination an illusion."
Thomas Moore,
from Interview with Thomas Moore

Psychologist and author Thomas Moore, PhD., opened the fifth annual Texas Breast Health Summit in Houston today with a gentle address on the importance of healing the spirit in the wake of cancer.

"This is a soul gathering," he told the group, a mixture of survivors, volunteers and caregivers. "Those of you who have had cancer know something the rest of do not. You know what has to be done because of your experience. Your illness has taken you to a level of consciousness that others do not have. Use that change as a basis for transformation."

When people are ill, Moore explained, medicine is just one slice of the journey back to health. "We know how important the spirit is for health. We need people to stand up and speak for the things the soul needs in healing, especially in cancer."

In his writings and experience as a psychotherapist, Moore blends his studies of the world's religions, the arts and philosophy. His most well known work, "Care of the Soul" discusses ways people can deepen and enrich their lives through spiritual practise.

He said that there is something about illness that gives a person's soul, or humanity, a chance to appear. "When we are sick," he said, "something of us is revealed. We can then view our illness as an opportunity, or a rite of passage."

Moore encouraged the organizations involved to pursue alternative and holistic approaches to healing. "Let's improve the alternative/integrative approaches in a way that inspires confidence. Every year I see more progress."

His most recent book is "Writings in the Sand" and a new collection of essays will be published in next spring. For additional information on Thomas Moore go to: www.careofthesoul.net

Health care: IRL

There's nothing more energizing than being around creative people. They do what they do because it's part of their DNA. My friend Claire M (her name has been changed) is one of them. Some of her words to live by are on the left.

Right now though, Claire has more on her mind than the next beautiful thing she'll create. Her family health history includes an extensive amount of breast cancer (her mother was diagnosed at 28) and she is a colon cancer survivor. Now, at 37, she's found a palpable breast lump.

There's one more thing: Claire doesn't have any health insurance.

She lives in Harris County, Texas, home of the massive Texas Medical Center, one of the richest, most medically intensive areas in the world. Some 40 institutions make up this city within a city.

Yet according to Shern Min-Chow, co-anchor of CBS-affiliate KHOU-TV in Houston, some 30 percent of Harris County's own residents are uninsured, far from easy access to the Medical Center campuses. That's about 1.2 million people, based on current census data. The national average is 16 percent, Min-Chow told the audience at last week's Seventh Annual Breast Health Summit, presented by the Breast Health Collaborative of Texas.

Women like Claire, with medical issues that are not emergent but ARE pressing, spend days, weeks, even months trying to have one health issue thoroughly addressed. So far it's taken two months to have an appointment at The Rose, Houston's leading facility for breast health services for under-and uninsured women.

First, Claire told me, she needed to have a referral to The Rose from a private physician to have a mammogram. She doesn't have a primary care practitioner, or PCP.  So The Rose provided a referral so Claire could be referred back. Then another few weeks elapsed until she could see the doctor for the referral. This physician, in turn, was alarmed to the extent that she recommended and scheduled a stereotactic biopsy for Claire at The Rose. In turn Claire made arrangements to a friend travel to Houston so she could accompany her for the procedure.

That's where our last conversation had ended. Yesterday morning I thought about Claire while  I was looking through my notes from the conference, so I dropped her an email.  Ironically enough, the panel that Shern Min-Chow moderated was called, "Breast Cancer & Access to Care: The Texas State of Affairs." No one really has a clue. The private insurer pointed to the legislature; the public health official discussed the burgeoning workload; the think tank policy person ...just talked. If you asked anyone in the audience what was said the answer very well might have been, "it's a mess." Access to health care for the uninsured in Texas is a rudderless conversation.

What they needed on the panel was someone like Claire.

She arrived at the The Rose to find the test wasn't free, but cost $65.00. She was told that without the $65.00 she couldn't have the test. And instead of a sterotactic biopsy, where a small bit of tissue could be extracted for pathology analysis, the physician on duty that day said it wasn't on the schedule. After a mammogram, and an ultrasound, he said he couldn't see anything but that her breast were "very dense," a diagnostic problem in many younger women. He did add, as he was walking out the door, that she should probably get some "genetic testing."

And that's where it had all stopped when I talked with her yesterday. Nothing else has happened.  She applied for Medicaid to find that she made $100 too much per month to qualify. She followed the instructions to apply for a Harris County "Gold Card," following the procedure online, only to find out half-way through that instructions have to be filled out and mailed in or delivered.

In the meantime, she says, the lump is still there.

And yes, I know it's October.  We didn't have time to talk pink. We didn't have time.

October 24, 2009 -- ATX LiveStrong Challenge





Packing up after an incredible ride! Wishing we could prolong the moment!

Making the Impossible: Possible



Fans of the Tour de France and Livestrong will remember the "chalkbot" campaign last summer where cancer survivors and fans posted their messages of hope, inspiration and encouragement for American hero Lance Armstrong.

The message I sent "You Make the Impossible: Possible" expresses my deep feelings about the LiveStrong Challenge ride in Austin this past Sunday. All of you helped make the impossible, possible for me and thousands of others affected by cancer.

Think about this. When I finished chemotherapy in December of l998, before I even started radiation, before I started a year long process of reconstruction and physical therapy for frozen shoulder and lymphadema, I could barely walk up a hill. I was out of breath. It hurt to breathe, it hurt to walk. My feet were still swollen from steroids that -- at best -- helped squelch nausea and at worst -- sent me spinning around like Wiley Coyote.

Like every other cancer patient before and since then, I hung on, carried along on God's shoulders and through the love of friends. Sometimes all you can do is just soldier on and get through something. That is what I did.

You stayed with me on the ride, and with me through all the phases of recovery. This past Sunday, another joyous celebration of the impossible become possible. I cycled 65 miles up and down the hills surrounding Dripping Springs, Texas, past pastures, grazing goats and horses, past incredible vistas of the beautiful Hill Country all Texans love. You supported me with your wishes, your calls, your tweets, your love and your donations. You helped me raise more than $1200 for the cancer research programs sponsored by the Lance Armstrong Foundation. You are helping me to fight this incidious disease that fractures lives.

To all of you, my love and gratitude. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
