"Working as an oncology infusion nurse, being oncology certified, attending chapter meetings, going to ONS Congress® has really taught me plenty. But being an oncology patient taught me way more. I know firsthand the fears 'you have cancer' brings. Then going through further testing, CT scans, MRIs, genetics, the whole preparation for surgery was something I never considered when I treated a breast cancer patient," ONS member Catherine Parsons, RN, OCN®, told Valerie Burger, MA, MS, RN, OCN®, CPN, member of the ONS 50th anniversary planning committee, during a conversation about her experience being an oncology nurse and cancer survivor. Burger spoke with Parsons and ONS members Margaret Hopkins, MSN, RN, OCN®, HNB-BC, and Afton Dickerson, MSN, AGACNP-BCP, CBCN®, AOCNP®, CGRA, about how cancer survivorship has shaped their careers as oncology nurses and personal lives.

I thought I knew the side effects. There's so much I didn't know. There's so much behind the scenes before a patient comes and sits in my chair. The stuff that they go through I now can understand. It surprised me how much I didn't know." TS 11:39 Hopkins: "I had been thinking I'm going to be that hero, that I can go to work. I work at night, get 8 am radiation appointments, and go home and go to sleep and wake up and go to work again because everyone said, 'Oh, it's not that bad. Radiation will be okay. You can work.' … But the real challenge for me was I didn't know how to be a patient and a nurse at the same time. And my first radiation treatment, I go in there, and I change into the gown, and then I started cleaning up because I was getting treatment done at the hospital where I worked, and were taught if you see a mess, you clean it. So I was acting like a nurse. And I almost wanted to go help the other patients, but I couldn't because I had to focus on healing." TS 15:36 Dickerson: "What made the difference for me were the nurses who didn't just treat my illness. They treated me as a whole person—my emotions, my feelings. They made me smile. They would hold my hand or just take a moment to really ask, 'Hey, how are you?' And those small, little gestures made me feel worthy, made me feel like a human. I always tell nurses it's not just about the chemo; it's about the connection. Sometimes your presence is the most healing thing that you can offer to your patient." TS 30:52

C dans l'air du 4 décembre 2025 - Qui peut encore sauver le budget... et Lecornu ? Il ne reste plus que quelques jours aux députés pour examiner le projet de budget de la Sécurité sociale, dont le vote solennel est prévu mardi 9 décembre. Le Premier ministre a redit hier qu'il n'utiliserait pas le 49.3 pour le faire passer et a estimé possible de « trouver une zone d'atterrissage […] autour de 20 milliards d'euros de déficit ». Mais les discussions se tendent à l'Assemblée nationale, et Sébastien Lecornu a annulé l'intégralité de ses rendez-vous de la journée, notamment avec la CGT et la CFDT, pour se consacrer « aux débats parlementaires sur le PLFSS ».Beaucoup de tensions se cristallisent autour de la suspension de la réforme des retraites et de l'augmentation de la CSG sur le capital, un point qui doit être examiné ce jeudi par les députés. Le débat promet d'être explosif. Le PS en fait un point clé pour voter le PLFSS (ce qui n'est pas encore acquis), tandis que Les Républicains (LR) et Horizons ne veulent pas en entendre parler. Édouard Philippe et ses troupes ont menacé ces dernières heures de ne pas voter le PLFSS si ces « irritants » restent dans le texte. Ce qui n'a pas manqué de faire réagir le patron de Renaissance : Gabriel Attal a appelé le fondateur d'Horizons à garder « son sang-froid » et ses « nerfs solides ». « Dans la période où l'air de la vie politique est devenu totalement irrespirable […], on a besoin de points de repère (…) Il faut tout faire pour avoir un budget d'ici la fin de l'année », a-t-il ajouté à destination de son prédécesseur à Matignon.Le socle commun, sur lequel s'appuie Sébastien Lecornu et qui va de Renaissance à LR en passant par le MoDem et Horizons, se fracture alors que, chez LR, à l'approche des municipales, la tentation d'une alliance avec l'extrême droite gagne du terrain. Invité de la matinale de TF1 mercredi, Laurent Wauquiez a expliqué la ligne de son parti si jamais le candidat LR n'était pas présent au second tour : « Nous appellerons à voter tout sauf LFI. Cela veut dire voter blanc, cela veut dire voter pour ceux qui sont en face, quel que soit le parti. Tout sauf LFI, je ne peux pas être plus clair », a déclaré le président des députés LR. Et, dans certaines communes, certains franchissent le pas dès le premier tour. Ainsi, à Bourg-en-Bresse, des élus d'opposition Les Républicains ont décidé de se ranger derrière le candidat Reconquête pour constituer une liste commune.Alors, un compromis est-il possible sur le budget de la Sécurité sociale ? Édouard Philippe veut-il faire tomber le gouvernement Lecornu ? Quelle est la position du parti LR vis-à-vis du RN et de Reconquête ?

Spellers Series: “The Spellers Method” with Dawnmarie Gaivin   Dawnmarie Gaivin, is the cofounder of Spellers MethodTM and the Executive Director of Spellers Freedom Foundation. A former trauma and transplant nurse who spent more than a decade working in prestigious teaching hospitals in Boston and San Francisco, when she became a mother in 2003, her life took an unexpected turn. By 2006, both of her children had been diagnosed with nonspeaking autism.   Driven by an unwavering commitment to help her boys find their voices, Dawnmarie transformed her career. She became an assistive technology specialist and a DIR/Floortime® provider, ultimately founding Spellers Center - San Diego in 2017 and co-founding the revolutionary Spellers Method.   Featured in the SPELLERS documentary, her impact has rippled far beyond her own family. Let's listen in as Dawnmarie shares her story.     Bio: Dawnmarie Gaivin, RN, AT-ACP, is a former trauma and transplant nurse who spent more than a decade working in prestigious teaching hospitals in Boston and San Francisco. When she became a mother in 2003, her life took an unexpected turn - by 2006, both of her children had been diagnosed with nonspeaking autism. Driven by an unwavering commitment to help her boys find their voices, Dawnmarie transformed her career. She became an assistive technology specialist and a DIR/Floortime® provider, ultimately founding Spellers Center - San Diego in 2017 and co-founding the revolutionary Spellers MethodTM. Her impact rippled far beyond her own family. In March 2021, speller Jamison Handley and his father JB chronicled their transformative journey with Dawnmarie in their book Underestimated, revealing how spelling opened entirely new pathways to communication. The movement continued to gain momentum. In 2023, the documentary SPELLERS was released, powerfully demonstrating how spelling and typing as AAC methodologies have liberated countless nonspeakers from lives of silence. This was followed in 2024 by Underestimated.tv, which illuminated more profound journeys of nonspeakers after they gained access to open communication. Today, as Executive Director of Spellers Freedom Foundation - a 501(c)(3) public charity - Dawnmarie has expanded her reach far beyond San Diego. The foundation empowers every speller to flourish through access to communication, community-building, and scholarships. She remains equally passionate about ensuring students with alternative communication needs receive age-appropriate curriculum throughout their lifespans, a commitment that has inspired her to pursue a master's degree in educational leadership. What drives her is a life mission that's as clear as it is urgent: to dismantle the long-rooted paradigms that prevent nonspeakers from living their fullest, most inclusive lives possible - not just in one community, but everywhere.

In this companion episode to the October Journal of Hospice and Palliative Nursing (JHPN) editorial, we sit down with members of HPNA's DEIB Committee to explore the story behind a powerful decision—choosing to retain the committee's name—and the thoughtful, intentional process that led there. Nurse leader and postdoctoral fellow Kirsten Inducil Buen, PhD, RN, MA, reflects on her clinical background, mentorship journey, and the challenges of speaking up with clarity during uncertain moments. Joined by committee chair Nancy Dias PhD, RN, MSN, FPCN®, the conversation dives into what it means to lead and learn in complexity, the responsibility of authorship, and how collaborative leadership can both empower and protect. This episode offers a real-world lens into DEIB work, not as a checkbox, but as a living, evolving commitment to justice, truth-telling, and meaningful inclusion.    Show Notes  The views and opinions expressed in this podcast episode are the guests' and do not represent the views of East Carolina University (ECU) nor UCLA.   Journal of Hospice & Palliative Nursing (JHPN): https://journals.lww.com/jhpn/pages/default.aspx    Mentorship Match program: https://community.advancingexpertcare.org/mentoring

In this episode of Bigfoot Society, witness John Reiners—a registered RN and the author of Crouching Behemoth: Quadrupedal Sasquatch—shares one of the most detailed quadrupedal Bigfoot encounters ever recorded.On November 17, 2020, while driving toward Rough River Lake near Owensboro and Breckenridge County, Kentucky, John witnessed a massive buck enter the roadway, panting and distressed. Seconds later, he observed two large gold eyes shimmering from a ravine. A spider-crawling, gray-skinned quadrupedal Sasquatch emerged, stalking the deer before rising smoothly onto two legs and pursuing it at full speed.John's account also touches on regional Bigfoot activity tied to the Ohio River, Green River, Mammoth Cave system, and nearby Ohio County. Additional sightings discussed include incidents from Scotts Road in Indiana (1996) and the Pearl River Basin in Louisiana (2022)—all of which appear in his book.This is an essential listen for anyone interested in spider-crawl Bigfoot, predatory Sasquatch behavior, all-fours locomotion, and rare eyewitness encounters.Get your copy of John's book here: https://amzn.to/4a3pgA0 (Amazon affiliate link that helps support the podcast)

"Antibody–drug conjugates (ADCs) have three basic parts: the antibody part, the cytotoxic chemo, and the linker that connects the two. First, the antibody part binds to the target on the surface of the cell. Antibodies can be designed to bind to proteins with a very high level of specificity. That's what gives it the targeted portion. Then the whole thing gets taken up by the cell and broken down, which releases the chemotherapy part. Some sources will call this the 'payload' or the 'warhead.'  That's the part that's attached to the 'heat-seeking' part, and that's what causes the cell death," Kenneth Tham, PharmD, BCOP, clinical pharmacist in general oncology at the University of Washington Medicine and Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center in Seattle, WA, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS®, manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS, during a conversation about antibody–drug conjugates.

To provide feedback or otherwise reach ONS about the podcast, email pubONSVoice@ons.org Highlights From This Episode "The mechanism of action of the chemo itself depends on what agent or what 'warhead' is attached. Generally, [ADCs] have some kind of cytotoxic mechanism related to many of the chemotherapies that we use in practice, without attachment to the antibody. Some of them can be microtubule inhibitors, vinca alkaloids like vincristine. Some of them can be topoisomerase I (TOP1) inhibitors like irinotecan. Some can be alkylating agents that cause DNA breaks. So, again, looking back at the arsenal we have of cytotoxic chemo, these can all be incorporated into the ADCs." TS 5:54 "I want to talk about a case where the biomarker is being tested, but the biomarker isn't the target that you're looking for. One good case of this is a newer agent that was approved called datopotamab deruxtecan. The datopotamab portion is specific to a target called 'trophoblast cell surface antigen 2' (TROP2), which is expressed on the surface of many epithelial cancers. This agent was first approved in hormone receptor-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer, and received accelerated approval in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with an EGFR mutation. ... The antibody looks for a target, TROP2. But in both of these cases—in the breast cancer and the NSCLC—you're testing for expression of different mutations or lack thereof. You're not looking for expression of TROP2. There's more research that needs to be done about the relationship between TROP2 expression and the presence or absence of these other biomarkers, but until we know more, we're actually testing for biomarkers that aren't the target of the ADC." TS 10:22 "There are common adverse advents to antibodies and chemo in general. Because we have both of these components, we want to watch out for the adverse effects of both of them. Antibodies, as with most proteins, can trigger an immune response or an infusion reaction. So, many ADCs can also cause hypersensitivity or infusion reactions. The rates of that are really variable and depend on the actual antibodies themselves. Then you have the cytotoxic component, the chemotherapy component, which has its own characteristic side effects. So, if we think of general chemo side effects—fatigue, nausea, bone marrow suppression, alopecia—these can [occur] with a lot of ADCs as well." TS 15:34 "The rate of ocular toxicity in [mirvetuximab soravtansine] is quite high. The manufacturer reports that this can occur in up to 60% of patients. With rates so high, the manufacturer recommends a preventive strategy. For this particular agent, [they] recommend patients have required eyecare. ... This ocular toxicity is something we do see in other ADCs that don't have the same target and don't necessarily have the same payload component. For example, tisotumab vedotin and again, datopotamab deruxtecan, can both cause ocular toxicities and both would have required ocular supportive care." TS 20:08 "Overall, I feel like the future is incredibly bright for these agents. There have only been around a dozen therapies approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) despite this idea—the first agent came out in 2000. So, 25 years later, there are only around a dozen FDA-approved treatments. But there are so many more that are coming through the pipeline. And as we're discovering more biomarkers and developing more specialized antibodies, it's only natural that more ADCs will follow." TS 26:50

In this episode, Mike dives into the deep and fascinating history of one of Traverse City's most iconic landmarks: the Traverse City State Hospital, also known historically as the Northern Michigan Asylum and the Traverse City Regional Psychiatric Hospital. Recorded on November 28, 2025 (yes, Black Friday—no, he's not out shopping), Mike shares personal stories, local history, and some memories connected to the vast and beautiful grounds of what is now called the Village at Grand Traverse Commons. What Mike Covers in This Episode 🏥 A Brief History of the State Hospital Established in 1881 and opened in 1885. Founded by Dr. James Decker Munson, namesake of Munson Healthcare, alongside Traverse City's “father,” Perry Hanna. Built as a Kirkbride Plan psychiatric hospital—one of four in Michigan and the only one still standing and in active use today (though no longer as a hospital). 🏛️ Architecture & Design Beautiful Victorian-style buildings with spires, long wings, wide porches, and landscaped grounds. Built on the idea of beauty, light, and nature aiding psychiatric healing. Gorgeous gardens supported by on-site greenhouses that provided year-round flowers. 🌳 A Self-Sustaining Community The hospital operated as its own little world: Farms with cattle, pigs, chickens, crops, and orchards Their own power plant Workshops and barns (now part of Historic Barns Park) Many patients (or “clients,” as some staff called them) worked on the grounds as part of daily life. 👨‍⚕️ Mike's Personal Connections Both of Mike's paternal grandparents worked there—his grandmother as an RN and his grandfather as an orderly. He shares memories of neighbors and relatives who worked on the hospital farm and grounds. He also reminisces about staying as a kid in the Perry Hanna House (now a funeral home)—a mansion connected to the founders of the hospital. 🏚️ Abandonment and Renewal After closing in the late 20th century, some buildings fell into disrepair. Today, Building 50 has been reborn with: Condos and apartments Offices Shops, galleries, and restaurants in the lower level, known as The Grotto Other “cottages” are slowly being restored, while tours still visit the untouched and eerie sections. 🚶 Ghost Stories, Tunnels & Tours The site is rich with lore—including tunnels connecting buildings. Mike mentions wanting to have his friend Chris (a local historian and photographer) on the podcast to go deeper into the legends, stories, and details. ☕ Coffee Deliveries at Sunrise Mike also shares a personal memory of delivering bagels to Cup of Joe in Building 50's grotto back when his wife ran a bagel shop—always grabbing a cup of coffee around 5:30 a.m. 🌄 A Landmark on the Hill As you drive into Traverse City from the south (US-31 / M-37), the spires of Building 50 rise out of the trees—a recognizable introduction to town. 🎙️ Coming Up November 29: “Why Podcasting Is So Special” November 30: A special final NaPodPoMo episode to close out the month Thanks for listening, and catch Mike tomorrow for more!

So many of us stop drinking and then realize, “Oh wow, my relationship with my body and with food is really complicated too.” Maybe you're thinking about what you eat all the time, swinging between being “good” and “off the rails,” or feeling like you need to weigh less, eat less, or control more to finally feel “enough.” In this episode, we're talking about intuitive eating and attachment styles — and how they show up in your relationship with food, your body, and your sobriety.

This week's special Thanksgiving episode of the En Factor features oncology nurse and book author Pamela Baptiste, who was a pleasure to have on the show. Pamela's journey began on the Caribbean island of Trinidad where her hardworking and resilient mindset was built by the positive and inspiring influence of her parents. She always wanted to be a nurse growing up, as she was inspired by the compassion and care that she saw from other nurses at a young age. Her lifelong dream became a reality after moving to New York for nursing school and becoming a registered nurse at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center where she spent more than 20 years working. Continuously driven by her passion for not only dealing with patients' symptoms and diseases, but also reinforcing their spirit and mindset, Pamela found her way to Tampa, Florida where she has been a RN for Moffit Cancer Center ever since. Throughout her professional journey and as you will hear throughout today's episode, Pamela's career and mission always has had gratitude, mentorship, and giving back at the forefront. These qualities and Pamela's inspiring journey of building her career coming from another country and working tirelessly all while raising her daughter led her to wanting to inspire and fuel the fire for other nurses that are on their own journeys. And one of the results of her philanthropic mindset was becoming an author and publishing her own book, The Flame Within, written to encourage and help guide aspiring and practicing nurses on their journeys. You won't want to miss a moment of Pamela's amazing story and impactful advice, as she and Dr. Rebecca White dig into topics of conversation including how her upbringing in Trinidad shaped her mission and mindset, technological factors that are driving more nurses to become entrepreneurial, and the importance of gratitude and giving back to others and your community.

Ageism might not be the first ‘ism' that comes to mind in healthcare, but it's one that affects every provider eventually. Today's guest, Cynthia Farina, DNP, CRNA, RN, CNE, is an educator who has devoted much of her life to advocating for wellness, inclusion, and professional longevity. She joins Kevin and Charity to break down the subtle ways age bias shows up in anesthesia—from assumptions about “slowing down” to underestimating younger providers—and how both ends of the spectrum can experience its effects. Dr. Farina was recently part of an AANA webinar titled Respect Across the Lifespan: Tackling Ageism in Anesthesia, and her message today is clear: if you're lucky, you'll age too—so build a profession that welcomes wisdom, not just youth. Here's some of what we discuss in this episode:
