Meet the Moore FamilyLooking Back & Ahead

David Moore is a combat Army veteran, a guitarist and singer/songwriter, and the Assistant State Director for the US Department of Labor. He is a man with creative roots, who speaks poetically and loves magic. He is a husband, dad and a man living with cancer.

“When I was diagnosed,” he says, “my concern was for my family,” which includes wife Jennifer, and children David and Autumn. “I did a quick examination of my supports and realized I didn’t have anything to offer my kids, my wife. We all needed support.”

David reached out to Gilda’s Club on the day of his diagnosis seven months ago, and says, “It was the best thing I ever did.”

David compares his combat experiences, assigned to a special ops unit in Grenada in the 80s and

subsequent PTSD diagnosis, with the very different kind of war and aftermath that can be cancer. “Both illuminate our human frailty and our powerful resilience.”

“In the military, you know your enemy,” David explained. “It’s different when that enemy is inside you, but knowledge is power and Gilda’s Club helped the entire family gain that.” The biggest lesson, and David’s favorite, he says: “Living with cancer is not a choice, but HOW you live with it is.”

“Gilda’s Club fosters a culture of self help with every member pro-viding individual wisdom. You put it all together and that knowledge base, along with the hope and encouragement, is what makes it work.” Kaden, 13, summed it up: “You learn that cancer is always going to be a part of your life, but it doesn’t have to weigh you down.”

“Gilda’s Club offered a platform and provided a way to help the kids talk about cancer with their friends,” says David. “It’s just hard to get it if you are not living with it,” Autumn, 10, explained, “And I don’t have any friends at school who have a parent with cancer.”

David says, “People you thought were your friends shut down.” “It can be awkward,” Jennifer adds, “but here I don’t have to think about what to say. I can be myself.”

Since joining Gilda’s Club in October 2014, the whole family has become engaged in a variety of ways: support groups, knitting, art, parties, and – for David and Jennifer – Couple’s Night, which they both agree was very special.

Kaden, a Boy Scout who takes cello lessons and speaks like his father–softly and articulately–loves the art programs, especially related to expression of his own cancer journey. Autumn – who plays the viola and is crafty – loves the art just for the fun of it. Jennifer, who was a professional jewelry maker when she and David met, says she and her kids connected through art at Gilda’s Club.

The Moore family all agree feeling connected and comfortable is what

makes them want to keep coming back through the red doors. “Out-side these doors,” Jennifer explains, “that comes to a screeching halt as soon as you mention cancer.”

“I was naive,” David adds. “I thought, okay, 1, 2, 3–surgery, couch for three weeks, back to work.” Jenn interjects, “Cancer. Check. Done.” But that’s not the reality,” David finishes. “And we know now that we are still young in this journey.” And they all nod in agreement. “We will be members longer than we first imagined.”

“But it’s the greatest club,” he laughs. And, indeed, laughter is one of the club’s greatest gifts. There are tears here, but they are rare compared to the laughter. There is love here, compassion, empathy, knowledge and many experts at living with cancer.”

“Here, I don’t have to think about

what to say. I can be myself.”

June 2015

We wrapped up our 7th year in 2014, and whether it was the stretch in the bottom of the 7th inning or just the 7-year itch—change was in the air. Support group structure changed, allowing us to accommodate more people. We restructured our staff—adding two new positions and changing several others—to increase our reach, grow our collaborations and our volunteer and youth programs. We completed planning to launch our first three satellite sites in 2015, and we have five active sites today in Southern Indiana and south/southwest Louisville.

Change is not new to us, though. Cancer is a journey. Journeys illustrate constant change—changes in scenery, growth, maturation. Life cycles and celebrations. Every emotion imaginable (and sometimes all in a day).

When we reflect on the more than 5,000 lives we’ve touched, there are moments and faces burned into our memories. We have seen incredible diversity—of people, activities and emotions. But most significant of all, there are stories and it is our goal to share those.

Despite what many people may think, Gilda’s Club is not a sad place where people living with cancer come to be depressed with others living with cancer. There are tears, but the laughs outnumber them significantly. Every day we are reminded that living with cancer is not a choice, but HOW we live with it is. Hope is redefined, and all kinds of moments are cause for celebration. Here are a few we remember from our first seven years.

Chase celebrated her eighth birthday here, along with the fact that her hair had grown back just enough to wear pigtails. David celebrated his re-birthday (anniversary of his bone marrow transplant) and brought his donor here to meet everyone and celebrate his extraordinary gift of life. Sarah celebrated her 40th birthday—a year late because she had been too sick before. She would have only two more birthdays but continued to come here to celebrate lots of life’s best moments with her family until the end of her life’s journey at 43. Then her family came to celebrate her life and offer a meal to others who had supported them through their cancer journey.

Kay, who had just been told by doctors there was “nothing else they could do,” came to celebrate friends and good food. Noah, Joyce, Linda, Mike, and so many others have celebrated the end of treatment. Then there are the celebrations for new treatment options or acceptance into clinical trials. “Survivorversaries” are a regular cause for celebration. And there are so many more reasons to celebrate here: releases to return to work or school, living to see the birth of a grandchild and feeling well enough to hold and sing to him. And there have been more celebrations of life than we can count. Some have been small and solemn. Others loud and raucous. One ended with a conga dance to a Jimmy Buffett song. It was perfect for Nancy. Cancer is not something the average person typically associates with celebrations, but we find many of them here.

Thank you to our supporters. Your wonderful and positive impact is hard to measure, but so easy to see!

“Gilda’s Club is not a sad place

where people living with cancer come to be

depressed with other people living with cancer.

There are tears, but the laughs outnumber

them significantly.”

As a standup comedian and “The Funniest Two-Time Cancer Survivor in the U.S.,”Mack Dryden reached out to Gilda’s Club when he and his wife moved a few years ago from L.A. Saying, “We’re in the same business: making the cancer journey easier for people. Please use me if you can.”

We took him up on the offer and Mack headlined this year’s Night of a Thousand Laughs. With Mack, we can honestly say that many more than a thousand laughs echoed off the walls of the Bomhard Theater. “I’ve never had more fun onstage, and I got the bonus thrill of actually making a difference,” Mack says. “Volunteering my services for Gilda’s Club, the greatest cancer

A small girl taught Diane Potts a big lesson. Since 2007, Diane has volunteered at Gilda’s Club in honor of Hanna, her great niece who died at age six from cancer of the kidneys, called Wilms’ tumor. From Hanna, Diane learned to “Never give up and always give back.”

From her first day, Diane was willing to do whatever was asked. She witnessed the transformation of the building as it became Gilda’s Club Louisville – wood being installed on the steps, floors laid in the library and Noogieland, paint on the walls and people coming in and out of those big red doors. She was in her element and wanted to stay.

In her eight years at Gilda’s Club, Diane has been a greeter at the reception desk, face painter at youth events, creator of thousands

of artistic cards and now teacher, along with another volunteer, Joy McKee, in card-making classes.

“Our classes are tons of fun, but also significant, because everyone who comes to class understands the importance of the cards they are making. The beautiful cards made in class, as well as the ones Joy and I do ourselves, go out to our members and volunteers. Each card is made with love and packed with good wishes,” Diane says.

“Volunteering is its own reward,” Diane says. “Being able to put a smile on someone’s face is worth so much more than a paycheck. Again and again, I have been privileged to witness smiles – after a child’s face is painted or after a card is read or when members come in for an event or to just get away for awhile. They certainly bring sunshine on a rainy day.”

Diane has shared her love of volunteering with granddaughter, Halen, 16. When Halen was seven years old, she participated in St. Baldrick’s Day in honor of her cousin, Hanna. She raised over

“The thing about a hero, is even when it doesn’t look like there’s a light at the end of the tunnel, he keeps digging, he

keeps trying to do right and make up for what’s

gone before, because that’s who he is.”-Joss Whedon

$3,000 in donations to benefit cancer research and she smiled the entire time her head was being shaved.

Halen has been a volunteer at Camp Gilda, a week-long day camp for children whose lives are affected by cancer. And, for the past two summers, Halen has traveled across the bridge from Indiana to intern at Gilda’s Club every Friday for 10 weeks. “I couldn’t be more proud that Halen opens her heart and gives back, especially at Gilda’s Club,” Diane says.

“Volunteering at Gilda’s Club is like being a part of a family. The people at Gilda’s make you want to come back every day and do your part,” says Halen.

Halen’s favorite quote at left is by Joss Whedon. It defines a hero. We think Diane and Halen are heroes by how they are honoring Hanna.

support organization in Louisville, was a no-brainer. I make a living flying all over the country perform-ing, so if I could drive ten minutes and have a positive impact on people who really need it, sign me up,” Mack adds.

As a two-time survivor, Mack believes that he’ll never be able to give back what he owes to everyone fighting The Beast and supporting families who are in the battle. Naturally, Mack talks about his own struggles in his show, Live Happy, Laugh Loud: A Celebration of Cancer Survival. When he was diagnosed with testicular cancer, Mack says, he decided it would be downright foolhardy to ignore the adage that Laughter is the Best Medicine. As a chuckle merchant, he gets an endorphin rush making other people laugh, so he went for it as his life “quite literally depended on it.” Before surgery, his doctor asked if he wanted a plastic prosthesis so he would look the same. Mack’s reply? “Why, doc? Don’t you think my friends will recognize me?”

The doctor’s cackle prompted that euphoric tingle comedians live for, so he knew he had to use Laughter Therapy in his treatment.

Mack tells the story of the day he was throwing up when a nurse asked how he was doing. “Well, I’ve puked up about everything,” he croaked, “but I think I found my class ring.” To Mack, her exuberant giggles were like a shot of morphine. “Suddenly, our roles were reversed. I was making her feel better, giving me a sense of control and normalcy for a few precious moments,” he said. Several years after surviving what he calls the “Scrotum Scare,” an ophthalmologist discovered a malignant melanoma on the back of his eyeball. “Gee,” he said, “I’m not having any luck with these round organs,”– and he got his first laugh of the second round. The doctor gave him the assignment to come up with more one-liners while he languished for a week with a radioactive bottle cap sewn to his eyeball, destroying 90% of the vision in that eye.

When the doctor removed the cap, Mack said, “I make a living meeting folks and making them laugh. When I get on the plane wearing this eye patch and my comfy maroon jogging suit, I’ll be a One-eyed, One-Orbed, Flying Purple People Meeter.” Too bad the doctor was too young to get it. Not to be beaten, Mack continued with, “Come on, doc,” I said. “What can you expect from a guy who’s half blind and half nuts?” Mack got his laugh.

Red Door Project

When we share our stories . . . We honor and integrate our experience,

We teach others from our wisdom, We find new meaning in our experience

and sharing our truth helps others find their own.

You can’t miss the big red doors to enter and exit the clubhouse. These doors are red for a reason!

Universally, a red door is under-stood as a symbol of welcome. In Far Eastern cultures it is thought to bring luck and happiness. It’s thought to be the “mouth of chi”—the main conduit through which the universal positive life-energy enters into a dwelling. In Celtic countries, it wards off bad energy and bad luck. In Scotland, it symbolizes that those who dwell within are mortgage-free!

Curiously—ALL these are true for Gilda’s Club Louisville as well. We are a refuge from “out there”—living with cancer day-to-day among others who “just don’t get it.” We are a haven where individ-ual experiences are affirmed and we learn from our shared wisdom. Virtually everyone who enters—member or guest—remarks how good it feels to be here—that there is an energy that lifts the spirit.

But we are more.

Doors also symbolize transition—leaving one place to enter another. If entering through the big red doors means entering a place of refuge—of providing safety and keeping lurking dangers at bay— it must also be true that these same red doors are for re-emerging into our “out theres” and living our lives deliberately when cancer is a part of it.

Since Spring, red doors have been appearing “out there”—in Portland and the southwest community and there are plans for more, including in Southern Indiana. As part of our outreach, we introduced the Red Door Project, opening doors to others in our community for whom access to the clubhouse is a challenge. Red doors are popping up and inviting those whose lives are touched by cancer to write a few words and share their story with others.

A curious thing happens when we share our stories—even ones that are only a few words—we honor, affirm and integrate our experience. When we learn the

stories of others—even of peo-ple we do not know—we find recognition and connection and learn we are not alone. By having the courage to share our stories, we help others find their courage. And by helping others find their hope, we find our own.

At its heart, the Red Door Project is meant to simply allow others whose lives are touched by cancer to share their stories and understand they are not alone.

At the same time it’s a way to open doors to underserved parts of our community, begin conversation and—together—create meaningful support through community-based programs, including support groups, education and social events. Our goal is to work with our community partners to create additional places of welcome and refuge, allowing others to share their collective wisdom “out there,” so that no one walks a cancer journey alone.
