2 Perkins Perspective • Fighting Cancer for Over 35 Years.

I N Y O U R C O M M U N I T Y

MMary Bird Perkins Cancer Center, in partnership with St.Elizabeth Hospital, officially opened the doors to its newGonzales facility earlier this year. Now, citizens of AscensionParish and surrounding areas have more convenient access toa broader range of cancer services from community outreachto advanced treatment.

“It is important to St. Elizabeth that we

constantly work to bring the latest and

most advanced technology to the residents

of Ascension and the surrounding parishes.

This exciting partnership offers cancer

patients expanded options in the fight

against cancer, bringing it close to home,

friends and family.”

Dee LeJeune

CEO, St. Elizabeth Hospital

The new treatment facility features state-of-the-art technology,including a high-energy linear accelerator utilizing advancedimage-guided radiation therapy (IGRT); intensity modulatedradiation therapy (IMRT); state-of-the-art imaging usingpositron emission tomography and computed tomography(PET/CT); sophisticated treatment planning, as well as physicsand dosimetry quality assurance instrumentation and software.

The first of MBP’s $20 million dollar investment in ElektaSynergy® digital linear accelerator technology was installed inthe new facility. At the center, MBP can treat many types ofcancer with the Elekta Synergy, from simple to the mostcomplex cases. Elekta Synergy is a fully digital linear acceleratorwith an integrated 3D imaging system that can image the sitereceiving radiation immediately before treatment to ensure thehighest accuracy possible. This allows for a reduction in thevolume of healthy tissue affected by the radiation dosage.

The radiation oncologists at the new facility include twomembers of the ten-member Southeast Louisiana RadiationOncology Group (SLROG) practicing exclusively at Mary BirdPerkins Cancer Center locations. This group of physicians hasover 200 years of combined experience. In addition, the facilityis supported by MBP’s medical physics and dosimetry teams,two radiation therapists, two PET/CT technologists, financialcounselor, dietitian and social worker.

“It is an honor to have the opportunity to work with St.Elizabeth, community physicians and residents in the greaterAscension area to support cancer care. This partnership brings tothe citizens of this area state-of-the-art technology, expandedcancer services and outreach programs – from early detection tosurvivorship,” said Todd Stevens, President and CEO, Mary BirdPerkins.

In recognition of National Colorectal Cancer Awareness Monthin March, MBP and St. Elizabeth Hospital partnered to offer acolorectal screening on March 14 at the new facility. Colorectalscreening kits were distributed to men and women age 50 andolder who had not been screened for colorectal cancer in the pasttwelve months.

“We look forward to continue working with St. Elizabeth toshare the message of early detection,” said Renea Duffin, vicepresident of cancer programs, MBP. “Going straight to thecommunity to help people better understand how to reducetheir risk for cancer and to encourage people to get screenedhelps save lives.”

Todd D. Stevens, president and CEO

My Perspective

The vision of Mary Bird Perkins’ founders – to provide localaccess to high-quality cancer care – is being realized incommunities across southeast Louisiana as the Center, throughcollaborative partnerships with community hospitals andphysicians, expands its mission across an entire region to touchmore and more lives. Now serving an 18-parish region, MaryBird Perkins operates cancer programs with four partnerhospitals: Our Lady of the Lake Regional Medical Center inBaton Rouge; St. Tammany Parish Hospital in Covington;Terrebonne General Medical Center in Houma; and St.Elizabeth Hospital in Gonzales, in addition to a treatmentcenter in Hammond, Louisiana.

Our newest center in Gonzales, Louisiana, opened in early2009, allowing Mary Bird Perkins the privilege of serving thecitizens of Ascension Parish and the surrounding region. We arethrilled to be working with St. Elizabeth Hospital to ensurethat patients in that area now have more convenient access to abroader range of cancer services, from community outreach toadvanced treatment and survivorship.

On the research and development front, the Cancer Program ofOur Lady of the Lake and Mary Bird Perkins continues toevolve as a result of its participation in the National CancerInstitute’s Community Cancer Centers Program (NCCCP)pilot. You know that every individual has a unique anddifferent fingerprint, but did you know cancerous tumors areunique as well? The Cancer Program has partnered with the H.Lee Moffitt Cancer Center & Research Institute in Florida andis part of the creation of a new frontier in cancer research calledTotal Cancer Care™. We are one of 18 sites in the countryparticipating in this first-of-its-kind study aimed to advancethe science leading the way toward customized treatmentsbased on individualized tumor profiles.

In keeping with Mary Bird Perkins’ mission to improve cancersurvivorship, we remain committed to providing state-of-the-art technology. The breadth and depth of our technology isreflective of the best available in the world and is unparalleledin the state. Not only are we able to offer patients thesophisticated treatment capabilities of TomoTherapy® andBrainLAB Novalis, we are now offering new Elekta Synergy®technology – the latest of which has just been installed in BatonRouge. And, you’ll read in the pages ahead about how we areworking to implement Proton Therapy in Baton Rouge.

We hope you enjoy reading about Mary Bird Perkins’ recentaccomplishments and initiatives. We remain inspired andgrateful to our volunteer leadership and ever-expandingcommunity of supporters. It is you that make the difference.

Sincerely,

Your Cancer FingerprintParticipating in the Future of Personalized Medicine withTotal Cancer Care™

The Cancer Program of Our Lady of the Lake and Mary BirdPerkins is one of only 18 sites in the country participating in afirst-of-its-kind study to individualize cancer treatment. TheCancer Program and H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center & ResearchInstitute in Florida have partnered to perform state-of-the-artcancer research called Total Cancer Care™.

Just as every person has a unique fingerprint, every tumor isunique as well. Total Cancer Care™ aims to specializetreatment based on genes that provide a “molecular fingerprint”unique for each tumor, just like the lines on fingertips identifyindividual people. Cancer can be classified by its site of origin,such as lung, breast, colon and prostate, but there are manydifferent types of these cancers. We now know that individualpatients with the same kind of cancer don’t always respond tostandard treatment in the same way. This program is workingto change that.

This study is creating a new frontier in cancerresearch in which local cancer patients will havethe opportunity to be a part of thisgroundbreaking study. To date, over 90 patientsfrom the Cancer Program have already signedup to participate, and nationally, the study hasthe consent of more than 33,000 subjects.

Cancer patients can volunteer to be a part of thestudy by answering questions about their medicalhistory and giving permission for excess tumortissue to be donated for cancer research.

Brad Vincent, M.D., principal investigator of the initiative, said“I believe that Total Cancer Care™ represents the future ofcancer care. It is essentially a new way of thinking about howcancer is treated in this country, especially when it comes tonew and investigational agents.”

Radiation Oncologist Gregory Henkelmann, M.D., a partnerof Southeast Louisiana Radiation Oncology Group practicingexclusively at Mary Bird Perkins, was the first physician to refera Cancer Program patient for tissue banking at H. Lee MoffittCancer Center & Research Institute. “By combining researchefforts across the entire country, we are participating in thefuture of personalized medicine that will potentially be of greatimportance for all cancer patients,” he stated.

Only recently, technology has advanced such that doctors cannow test each tumor for approximately 30,000 genes – the

genes that provide the molecular fingerprint. By studying thisfingerprint, scientists are developing new drug therapiespersonalized for each individual.

“It takes a team approach for this initiative to work,” saidMedical Oncologist Judd Patten, M.D., Ph.D., LouisianaHematology Oncology Associates. “While at the highest levelwe are partnering with Moffitt Cancer Center, it also takes ateam of physicians, radiation and medical oncologists, surgeonsand clinical research staff, to name only a few, to make thisstudy a success for the future of cancer care.”

Part of the reason the Cancer Program was selected was becauseof its affiliation with the National Cancer Institute’sCommunity Cancer Centers Program (NCCCP) pilot, whichhas an emphasis on clinical research.

“Involvement in a major trial such as this

one – and selection by a major cancer

center such as Moffitt – says a lot about the

quality of the Cancer Program of Our

Lady of the Lake and Mary Bird Perkins.

However, most important is the benefit to

our patients. Total Cancer Care™ gives

our patients access to cutting-edge cancer

treatment without having to venture

outside of Baton Rouge. Oncologists can

deliver the most effective treatments

possible in a familiar setting with all of

the family and local support that is so

important to those fighting cancer.”

Brad Vincent, M.D.

Principal Investigator

Donna Bryant, executive director, clinical researchprogram, Mary Bird Perkins, explained “Someday, you orothers participating in this research may need drugtherapy to treat your disease. Should this occur, we wouldwant to use gene-based technology to try to find the bestdrug for you. And, if a promising clinical trial or new drugassociated with the trial is available that may be of benefitto you, we will request permission to contact you in thefuture with this information.” Bryant continued, “Youmay also help others with cancer by participating in thisresearch. It takes thousands of individual participants likeyou to make Total Cancer Care a success.”

Total Cancer Care™ PatientContributes Her UniqueFingerprintMrs. Phyllis N. Crim, one of the Cancer Program’s firstparticipants in the initiative after being diagnosed withbreast cancer, was asked about her participation in thisexciting new initiative.

Why did you choose toparticipate?“Breast cancer has always been a part of my life. It’sdefinitely in our family. My mother had eight breasttumors throughout her life but passed away due to bonecancer. I have one sister and two daughters. So far, I’vebeen the only one to have breast cancer. I wanted to dothis for them. I didn’t have anything to lose by letting thesurgeon take tissue from my tumor. Whether cancer isinherited or not, I felt like this opportunity allowed me todo my part in the fight against this disease so my sister anddaughters won’t have to go through the same battle I did.”

What does having access to thistype of initiative mean to you?“The future. I’m very optimistic. I have grandchildren. Iwant to be there to see them grow up. I have a lot left tosee, and I want to be there every step of the way. Cancerhasn’t beaten me, and I hope through being able toparticipate in this, it won’t keep beating others.”

Mary Bird Perkins and LSU Plan toAdd Proton TherapyMary Bird Perkins Cancer Center and the Louisiana StateUniversity System (LSU) announced they are engaged in jointplanning to develop and implement a proton therapy program inBaton Rouge, adding the latest in radiation therapy technologyto serve Louisiana cancer patients. The treatment and researchprogram is expected to open by 2012 on the campus of OurLady of the Lake Regional Medical Center.

Proton therapy is a form of radiation therapy that holdstremendous potential in the treatment of certain types of cancerbecause it allows physicians to deliver higher doses while sparingsurrounding healthy tissues and organs. Currently, there are fiveproton therapy facilities in the United States, all affiliated withuniversities.

“Improving outcomes for cancer patients

while advancing medical research and

cancer treatment leverages the academic

power of the university and the private

resources of Mary Bird Perkins.”

Dr. John Lombardi

President of the LSU System

Historically, proton therapy has benefited only a small segmentof cancer patients, mostly in treating localized, isolated, solidtumors, such as brain, spine, head and neck as well as eyetumors, before they spread to the rest of the body.

Scientists and physicians with the nationally recognized MaryBird Perkins-LSU Medical Physics Program believe futureadvances in proton therapy technology will benefit a wider array

of cancer patients. The accredited graduate program, a jointventure of Mary Bird Perkins Cancer Center and the LSUDepartment of Physics and Astronomy, is one of only 15 suchprograms in the nation. The partnership takes advantage ofMary Bird Perkins’ clinical team and facilities, treatmentplanning and dosimetry laboratories, and commitment topatients, as well as LSU’s expertise in imaging and medicalphysics within LSU’s College of Basic Sciences. Thiscombination of resources improves patient care, provides a richarena for medical research and provides much-needed manpowerin this highly specialized field for Louisiana and the nation.

One of the world’s foremost scholars in charged particleradiation therapy, Dr. Kenneth Hogstrom, chief of physics atMary Bird Perkins and Dr. Charles M. Smith Chair of MedicalPhysics at LSU, leads the partnership. Hogstrom is the formerdepartment chair of radiation physics and director of thegraduate medical physics program at The University of TexasM.D. Anderson Cancer Center in Houston.

“Mary Bird Perkins, because of its partnerships with physicians,Our Lady of the Lake, and the LSU System, is able to operateacademic-level radiation therapy treatment programs acrossSoutheast Louisiana, which for over 35 years have been availableto all patients regardless of their ability to pay,” said ToddStevens, president and CEO, Mary Bird Perkins Cancer Center.“We believe this team’s combined resources of clinical, physicsand basic science, and research expertise are ready to guide theimplementation of the next, more advanced generation ofproton therapy in our region for the benefit of current and futurecancer patients in Louisiana.”

The five operating proton therapy programs are located inCalifornia, Florida, Indiana, Massachusetts, and Texas. Six moreprograms are under development in Illinois, Missouri,Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and Washington.

What is Proton Therapy?Proton therapy is an advanced form of radiation therapy that holds tremendous potential in the treatment ofcertain types of cancer. It allows physicians to deliver higher doses of radiation to the tumor while sparing healthytissues and vital organs surrounding the site. This treatment of focused proton particles controls the cancerwithout causing significant damage to tissue beyond the targeted area.

TColon Cancer TeamLaunches WebsiteTo help educate Louisiana residents about the risks ofcolorectal cancer, the Cancer Program of Our Lady ofthe Lake and Mary Bird Perkins launched a resourcededicated to the disease – www.coloncancerteam.org.This was done in conjunction with the development ofa new multidisciplinary program solely focused on thecomprehensive delivery of state-of-the-art care andcolorectal cancer research for colorectal cancer patients.

According to the American Cancer Society,approximately ten percent of all cancer deaths inLouisiana are from colon and rectum cancers. However,it is also one of the most preventable, treatable andbeatable cancers. More than 90 percent of colorectal cancers canbe cured when caught in their earliest stages. Early detection andeducation are key.

“We are dedicated to offering colorectal cancer

patients a comprehensive team approach to

cancer care. From early detection and

prevention to treatment and survivorship, a

team of physicians and a patient navigator

will be there every step of the way. Providing

a formal, multidisciplinary approach to

colorectal cancer is a national best practice

and one that we are excited about providing

to cancer patients here in Louisiana.”

Louis R. Barfield, M.D.

Colorectal Cancer Team Director

The site contains a new colorectal cancer risk assessment tool,developed by the Cancer Program’s colorectal cancer team, whichcan help determine one’s personal risk for colorectal cancer. Thesite also provides information on the signs and symptoms ofcolorectal cancer and lists free upcoming screenings andlocations, among other related topics.

Information about the multidisciplinary colorectal cancer teamcan be found on the site. The team’s purpose is to identify and

address the entire continuum of care for colorectal cancer, fromprevention and early detection to diagnosis, treatment, recoveryand survivorship. The team is comprised of:

• gastroenterologists• medical oncologists• oncologic surgeons• radiation oncologists• radiologists• primary care physicians• pathologists• medical physicists• radiation therapists• certified oncology nurses• patient navigator• social workers• case managers• nutritionists• pharmacists• chaplains

A unique offering of this program is the service of a patientnavigator. The patient navigator helps coordinate the care of thecolorectal patient throughout their treatment, ensureunderstanding of symptom management and emotionallysupport both the patient and the family. Another importantcomponent to this multidisciplinary initiative is geneticscounseling, a service available by physician referral.

This program is a part of the Cancer Program’s participation inthe NCI Community Cancer Centers Program (NCCCP) pilot.

This article is reprinted with permission from the March/April2009 Oncology Issues, the official journal of the Association ofCommunity Cancer Centers (ACCC). For more than 30 yearsACCC has provided a national forum for addressing issues thataffect community cancer programs, such as regulatory and legislativeissues, measurements of the quality of care, and clinical research.ACCC’s membership comprises 675 cancer programs, 25 statechapters, and nearly 500 individual members. For moreinformation, visit ACCC’s website www.accc-cancer.org.

In Baton Rouge 38 years ago a group of community organizers,led by community leader Anna Lipsey and surgeon JackRathbone, helped found a community-based organizationfocused solely on cancer care. An overriding goal was to providehigh-quality services to patients regardless of their ability to pay.Today Mary Bird Perkins Cancer Center (MBP) is not only aleader in providing state-of-the-art radiation therapy tocommunities in southeast Louisiana, it is bringing screeningsand early detection programs, education, and research into thecommunities it serves. Through a series of innovativepartnerships, MBP is succeeding in its mission “to improvecancer survivorship and lessen the burden of cancer throughexpert treatment, compassionate care, early detection, research,and education.” No small feat in a state with suchdisproportionate cancer mortality rates. Although cancerincidence rates in Louisiana are comparable to national averages,the state has one of the highest death rates from cancer in thecountry. These rates are largely attributed to the fact that manyLouisianans have limited access to prevention, early detection,and treatment services. Simply put, the diagnosis of cancercomes too late. Mary Bird Perkins is working to change that.

Innovative PartnershipsBecause of the complexity and costliness of providing state-of-the-art cancer services, Mary Bird Perkins’ cancer-only focusenables it to be a “catalyst and organizer that expands access tomultidisciplinary screenings, cancer detection, and diagnosisand treatment programs emphasizing long-term survival andquality of life,” said Todd Stevens, president and CEO of MaryBird Perkins Cancer Center.

Through innovative partnerships MBP jointly operates twoACoS programs located at St. Tammany Parish Hospital inCovington and one located in Baton Rouge at Our Lady of theLake Regional Medical Center.

In 2007 the Cancer Program of Our Lady of the Lake and MaryBird Perkins was selected as one of only 14 programs in thecountry to participate in the National Cancer Institute’sCommunity Cancer Centers Program (NCCCP) pilot. Most

recently, this comprehensive cancer program launched amultidisciplinary colorectal cancer initiative with a fulltime RNpatient navigator.

In 2008 MBP partnered with Terrebonne General MedicalCenter and Cancer Care Specialists in Houma to provide accessto comprehensive cancer care at Mary Bird Perkins atTerrebonne General Medical Center. The program offerspatients care from diagnosis through treatment, and alsoprovides community-based cancer screenings and educationaloutreach services to the area.

Also in 2008 Woman’s Hospital and MBP partnered to formWoman’s Comprehensive Breast Care program, which offerspatients breast care from diagnosis through treatment andsurvivorship.

MBP operates a radiation treatment facility on the campus ofNorth Oaks Hospital in Hammond. And, in January 2009,MBP opened its fifth location, a new outpatient cancertreatment facility in Gonzales in partnership with St. ElizabethHospital.

State-of-the-Art Radiation TherapyMary Bird Perkins offers leading-edge radiation therapytreatment modalities including intensity modulatedradiation therapy (IMRT); advanced image-guided radiationtherapy (IGRT) through BrainLAB Novalis,TomoTherapy®, and Elekta Synergy®; stereotacticradiosurgery; adaptive radiotherapy; and 4-D CT tumorlocalization. Since 1999, MBP has invested nearly $31million in patient care equipment, technology, and facilities.

Currently MBP radiation therapy staff includes 9 radiationoncologists, 12 FTE medical physicists, 9 medicaldosimetrists, 23 radiation therapists, 10 radiation oncologynurses, 4 CT technologists, and 2 nuclear medicine/PETtechnicians.

Partnering for ProgressIn 2004 Mary Bird Perkins partnered with Louisiana StateUniversity (LSU) to create the MBP-LSU Medical Physics andHealth Physics Program. The program is fully accredited by theCommission on Medical Physics Educational Programs, Inc.,(CAMPEP), one of only 15 such accredited programsnationwide.

“We have a very strong academic component and we areworking hard to grow that component,” said KennethHogstrom, PhD, chief of physics at MBP and the Dr. Charles

M. Smith Chair of Medical Physics at LSU. The medicalphysics graduate program, conducted in conjunction withLSU, prepares both master’s-level and doctoral-level medicalphysicists. “Because of the affiliation with MBP, our mainfocus is on radiation oncology, although we do some trainingin imaging,” said Dr. Hogstrom.

“We also conduct research. Currently, we have research grantsprimarily with industry although we do some basic researchwith LSU in the field of radiation oncology.” During 2007alone, MBP invested $800,000 in expanding and supportingboth the LSU-MBP academic and research medical physicspartnership, as well as its clinical research program.

It is estimated that there is a need for 300 medical physicistsannually, approximately double the amount produced bycurrent CAMPEP programs. In an effort to address the needfor well-trained medical physicists, in 2014, the AmericanBoard of Radiology will require that medical physicists havegraduated from or be enrolled in a CAMPEP-accreditedresidency training program prior to sitting for certificationexams from the American Board of Radiology, said Dr.Hogstrom. “This requirement is going to stimulate a fastergrowth of medical physicist residency training programs, andit will also require graduate programs to align themselves withmedical physics residency training programs,” he said. Plansare currently underway for Mary Bird Perkins Cancer Centerto start a medical physics residency program later this year.

Partnering with the CommunityIn 2002 MBP established its CARE Network outreach andsupport program. Funded largely through the generosity ofthe community, its mission is “to reduce the incidence andmortality of cancer in Southeast Louisiana and to improve thequality of life for those impacted by cancer,” said Renea A.Duffin, CARE Network executive director. Since theprogram’s inception, MBP and its community partners haveprovided more than 27,000 screenings to the uninsured andunderinsured free of charge. In 2006, the CARE Networkadded the MBP Early Bird mobile medical clinic to its earlydetection arsenal. Since hitting the road, the Early Bird has

helped provide 8,127 free screenings, serving an 18-parishregion. During last year’s national Minority Cancer AwarenessWeek, the Cancer Program of Our Lady of the Lake and MaryBird Perkins sponsored a family health fair in Baton Rouge topromote increased awareness of the importance of earlydetection and to improve access to care for the underservedpopulation. The program provided 474 cancer screenings inone day—for breast, prostate, skin, and colorectal cancers. ForNational Prostate Cancer Awareness Month in September,MBP partnered with other organizations to provide 711 freeprostate cancer screenings in convenient communitylocations.

MBP’s CARE Network also provides a range of supportservices including patient transportation assistance (both vanservices and gas cards), social work services, breast cancerpatient navigation services, dietitian, and oncologic dentistservices. All services are provided to patients without charge.

“Partnerships are very critical to the success of our programs,”said Duffin. “In order to reach people, we partner with othersthat are providing services that complement the services thatwe bring to the community. The entire CARE Networkprogram has been built around [these strong partnerships].”

Vital StatisticsNumber of newly diagnosed patients in 2007: More than2,400. In 2008, MBP provided 47,000 treatments and 660special procedures.

Early Bird’s FirstTrip to Houma aGreat Success

Mary Bird Perkins Cancer Center at TerrebonneGeneral Medical Center provided its first freecommunity-based colon cancer screening inHouma in conjunction with its Early BirdMobile Medical Clinic. Seventy-six people tookadvantage of this early detection opportunity.The event was held on March 19 at Wal-MartWestside on Martin Luther King Blvd. Take-home kits were provided to those age 50 andolder who had not been screened in the last 12months.

“This was the first time Mary Bird Perkins at TGMC was ableto offer this service in the Houma region, and we were thrilledwith the turnout,” said Charity Gay, outreach coordinator,Mary Bird Perkins (MBP). In Louisiana, colorectal cancer is the3rd most commonly diagnosed cancer among men and whitewomen. The death rate from this cancer is significantly higheramong men in Louisiana than in the rest of the nation, and it’sthe 2nd most common cancer diagnosed among black womenin our state. Gay added, “In the Bayou region specifically, forwhite men the incidence rate is significantly higher than the restof country. Therefore, men and women in Terrebonne Parish aremore at risk for colon cancer than their counterparts throughoutthe state and nation.”

The exact causes of colorectal cancer are unknown. However,there are certain factors that increase an individual’s risk ofdeveloping the disease: being age 50 or older; having a personalhistory of colorectal cancer and/or polyps; having a personalhistory of inflammatory bowel disease; being a smoker; beingobese or physically inactive; having a heavy consumption ofalcohol; and eating a diet high in saturated fat or red meat.

Since colon cancer usually does not have symptoms in its earlystages, screening becomes an extremely important tool tomonitor your health. Colorectal cancer is preventable, treatableand beatable if detected early. “We are very excited to be able tobring free cancer screenings and educational information to theBayou region,” said Renea Duffin, vice president of cancerprograms, MBP. “These events enable us to have a positiveimpact on the community we serve. We look forward toeducating this community on cancer and how early detectioncan improve their quality of life.”

The take-home kit is not a substitute for a colonoscopy. It is justone form of colorectal cancer screening. The gold standard forcolorectal cancer screening is the colonoscopy.

“I came to get the screening because I had

breast cancer 18 yrs ago and I want to

make sure that I am still cancer free from

any type of cancer.”

Jeanne Hebert, 91, from Houma

“I have been having a lot of problems, so I

wanted to come and get the screening. I

am living on Social Security and I love

that the screening is offered free of charge.”

Mildred Pierre, 74, from Houma

“I have a friend that had colon cancer so

now I realize how important it is to get

screened.”

Thomas Nguyen, 53, from Thibodaux

“We are at an age where we need to stay

ahead of the game and getting the

screening is like preventive maintenance.”

Ivan and Becky Gautreaux, 65 and 60

Second Annual Minority Screening EventAttracts HundredsIn recognition of National Minority CancerAwareness week, the Cancer Program of Our Ladyof the Lake and Mary Bird Perkins – with the helpof Southern University School of Nursing,Woman’s Hospital, LSUHSC, YWCAENCOREplus and numerous volunteers –sponsored its second annual health fair for thewhole family. The event promoted increasedawareness of the importance of early detectionamong racial and ethnic minority groups, asegment of the population disproportionatelyaffected by cancer. This year, volunteer translatorswere on hand to assist Spanish and Vietnamesespeaking participants.

The goal was to provide as many screenings aspossible for breast, prostate, colorectal and skincancers in addition to screenings for glucose andblood pressure. The overwhelming success of thisevent was evident in the exceptional results.

Making a Difference in YOUR CommunityMary Bird Perkins Cancer Center (MBP) believes that screenings are the single most proactive way to lower the inordinately highcancer mortality rate in Louisiana. Today, Louisiana ranks number two in the United States in cancer deaths.

With the help of community partnerships, MBP is continuing to fight this disease by offering free community cancer screeningsand education programs throughout our 18-parish service area. Year-to-date, MBP has held over 38 events and screened over 1,500participants for breast, prostate, colorectal, and skin cancer. The chart below represents the number of participants screened thus farand indicates that 39 percent of them had never been screened for cancer.

Regional Skin ScreeningsHeld in MayIn recognition of National Skin Cancer Awareness Month,regional skin screenings were offered throughout the month ofMay.

The Cancer Program of Our Lady of the Lake and Mary BirdPerkins offered screenings at multiple locations throughout theGreater Baton Rouge area. Screenings were also made availablein Covington as part of the comprehensive cancer program ofMary Bird Perkins and St. Tammany Parish Hospital and inGonzales in partnership with St. Elizabeth Hospital. Mary BirdPerkins Cancer Center at TGMC will provide screenings duringthe months of June and July in the Houma area.

Skin cancer is the most prevalent of cancers, and it is estimatedthat more than one million Americans develop skin cancer every

year, according to nationalstatistics from the AmericanCancer Society.

Through innovative partnershipsand generous communitysupport, Mary Bird Perkinsoffers free, year-round cancer screenings and educationalprograms to the underserved and uninsured. For informationregarding dates, times and locations of free screenings, pleasevisit www.marybird.org.

Merrill LynchEmployees HelpFund GolfSponsorship withPersonal DonationsWeathering EconomicDownturn, Embodying CivicResponsibility

Despite widespread economic downturn, Baton Rouge’sMerrill Lynch employees decided that their charitablecontributions were going to continue and their longtimesupport for Mary Bird Perkins Cancer Center’s annual golftournament was at the top of the list.

“It was like a perfect storm, and it would

have been so easy for the employees to say,

‘it’s just not a good time.”

Anthony S. Kurlas

Director, Merrill Lynch

But that isn’t what they said. Thanks in part to Kurlas’unwavering leadership and the committee’s refusal to makeexcuses, the branch’s charitable committee recommitted to thetitle sponsorship of the Mary Bird Perkins Merrill Lynch Openagain this year and raised more than $35,000 in employeecontributions.

Since 2000, Merrill Lynch has been its largest sponsor and hasremained dedicated even through previously fluctuatingeconomic cycles. With corporate dollars unavailable this year,the sponsorship depended solely on out-of-pocket employeefunding. Last year the tournament netted $170,000 to supportthe Center’s mission to improve survivorship and lessen theburden of cancer through expert treatment, compassionatecare, early detection, research, and education.

“I couldn’t have been more proud of the employees whodecided to stick with Mary Bird Perkins and the committeemembers who stepped up and took on additional responsibilityto collect funds.” In addition to the contributions to the

tournament, employees also donate thousands of dollarsthroughout the year to support MBP in the fight against cancer.

“Even in touch times, we have a responsibility to thecommunity. With Mary Bird Perkins, we can see where ourdollars go firsthand,” said Trina Bizette, senior client associatewho helped ensure Merrill Lynch’s involvement this year.

Paul Langston, Senior Financial Advisor and VP, acknowledgedthat there probably isn’t anyone who hasn’t been touched bycancer in some form. “Everyone at Merrill Lynch ralliedtogether this year to contribute what they felt they could. Weall appreciate the efforts of Mary Bird Perkins.”

“Giving back to the community of Baton Rouge, which hasbeen so good to us over the last 55 years, is part of our culture,it is what we do,” said Kurlas.

“If we have something first-class right here, we can keep familiestogether and it’s a great win for our community,” commentedEric Waechter, Senior Financial Advisor and AVP. Merrill Lynchemployees value the importance of Baton Rouge residentshaving access to a cancer center like Mary Bird Perkins.

When the mother of one employee, Senior Financial Advisorand VP Sanford Roy, was diagnosed with cancer more than tenyears ago, she could have received treatment in Houston.Instead, she chose to remain close to her own home andunderwent treatment in Baton Rouge. “I am very thankful mymom is still here because of Mary Bird Perkins,” Roy stated.

With the help of Merrill Lynch, Mary Bird Perkins cancontinue its mission. The Merrill Lynch team agreed with Roy’sassertion: “Not everyone can say they’ve helped save a life, butwe can by helping Mary Bird Perkins save lives. It’s a wonderfulorganization, and we’re so very proud to be a part of it.”

Immediate Past Chair Bill O’Quin and his wife Gail are theRathbone Division Chairs; and Corporate Division Co-Chairsare Mike Pitts and Stacey Chiasson.

patient support services, and outreach programs such as the freecommunity cancer screenings throughout the Center’s 18-parishservice area.

IIsaac M. “Mack” Gregorie grew up in South Carolina.After high school he headed off to Georgia Tech tostudy engineering when, after only one semester, hewas instead drafted into the U.S. Armed Forces.Eventually, however, he returned to his alma mater andgraduated in 1950 with a bachelor’s degree inIndustrial Engineering.

“In the fall of 1950, I came to Baton Rouge to workfor ExxonMobil,” said Gregorie. “I met my futurewife, Florence Kidd, there. She graduated from LSUwith a major in French and was offered a FulbrightScholarship. In the spring of 1952 we became engaged,and she decided to decline the scholarship. Since shewas only 19 at the time, her parents were actuallyrelieved about her decision,” Gregorie chuckled. Thecouple married in 1952 and had five children.

Gregorie retired from ExxonMobil as a DivisionManager in 1994. Unfortunately, it was only nineyears later – in the summer of 2003 – that Florence wasdiagnosed with lung cancer. “We went to Mary BirdPerkins right away,” stated Gregorie. “Florence wasn’tinterested in going anywhere else. She was very smart.She analyzed everything herself and when the cardswere laid out, Florence made her own decisions.”

“When we met Dr. Lo at Mary Bird Perkins, he told usFlorence was seriously ill, so we knew what we were upagainst,” said Gregorie. “Florence started smoking atage 15 and never gave it up, even with a strong historyof cancer in her family. Although she passed away in June of’04, we know Dr. Lo did everything he possibly could. He isan outstanding physician, and we received outstanding carefrom the folks at Mary Bird Perkins.” Gregorie said what

impressed both him and his wife the most was howeverything worked like clockwork. “If you have anappointment for 9 a.m. don’t get there at 9:03,” hecautioned. “They may have already called your name!”

Nearly a quarter of Americans age 65 and above have not createda will. The following example illustrates how failure to adequatelyprepare can circumvent the best laid plans.

Mary Hill was born, raised and died in the same small town. Hergrandchildren picked apples from the very trees she helped herparents plant. She and her husband spent Friday nights each fallon the bleachers of the local stadium, cheering the home team,and warm days each spring planting flowers along Main Street.Her five children never moved farther than an hour’s drive fromhome, returning often to help with their mother’s latest charityfundraiser or volunteer effort.

Mary died last year after a long and fruitful life. But of all thepeople and causes to which she'd dedicated herself, few receivedthe recognition she had hoped to provide. Why? Because Marydied without a will. Despite her hopes of leaving each grandchilda little “dream” money and of creating a memorial fund in her latehusband’s name to further her charitable work, Mary's wishesnever materialized.

Forty-one percent of Mary’s estate went straight to thegovernment since she had taken no steps to control estate taxes ather death. The remainder was divided equally among herchildren, according to state law.

Do You Need a Will?A will is perhaps the single most important document you canown, although more than half of all Americans die without one.You need a will if you have children or none at all. You need oneif you are married, single, widowed or divorced. You need a will ifyou have a house, a car, a bank account or property of any kind.A properly drafted will can also help you avoid payingunnecessary estate taxes. Perhaps most importantly, only througha will and careful planning can you benefit the people andorganizations you care about most in the exact manner you haveintended.

Your Will’s Expiration DateOnce executed, your will should be updated regularly, especiallyunder these circumstances: A birth, marriage or divorce in thefamily; a move to another state; a change in tax laws; a change inthe status of dependent children; impending retirement; or achange in personal circumstances or needs.

We Can HelpA properly drafted will is the first step toward making the best useof your assets for your family, loved ones and the charitableorganizations you believe in and wish to support.

Please contact Carolyn A. Chassee, CFRE, VP and chiefdevelopment officer, at (225) 215-1201, or via e-mail [email protected], for more information.

Define Your Dreams Through Your Will

Upon his wife’s demise, Gregorie gave a $10,000 bequest toMary Bird Perkins through her will. He has now updated hisown will for a second bequest to Mary Bird Perkins. Whenasked if he and his wife talked about charitable giving withtheir children, Gregorie said that they probably learned likehe did – more by example than words. “My father died whenI was three, leaving my mother with three children. We wentto live with her father, a country doctor in a small ruralcommunity. We ate a lot of eggs and chickens that foundtheir way through the door rather than cash. I suspect by theage of three I knew about giving.”

He said when he had children, he and his wife made certainthey were aware that their parents gave to the church andother organizations that were good for the community. “Atan early age, they understood that was the proper way tomanage their lives.”

When asked if he would encourage others to remembercharities in their wills, Gregorie was emphatic. “Certainly,”he responded, “if you have the ability to do so. It’s one’sobligation to give back.”
