Angry hips Friday night. Super elevated pain and extremely exhausted…

Angry hips Friday night. Super elevated pain and extremely exhausted…

However, I was happy to be out at my favorite place (Texans/NRG stadium) supporting the #FridayNightLights event hosted by a few of our favorite JH supporters… Brad & Joanna Marks along with Cal & Hannah McNair! It’s always soooo hard to find the energy to get out, but once I do I am always happy I dragged myself out of the house. After sitting for a little while, my hip stared hurting so bad that I was almost in tears. Garrick requested a chair with extra cushioning and check out what the awesome staff brought me in the pic Ever since part of my pelvis was removed at 23 years old, a broken hip training for Susan Koman at 25 followed by a a hip replacement, I’ve been dealing with pain off and on forever. Not...

Jamie hopes for a cure One patient’s rare cancer inspires collective effort Promise – Fall 2012 – By Erica Quiroz Jamie Gilmore is a fighter. In 1996, she was diagnosed with acinic cell carcinoma (ACC), a rare cancer that affects the parotid gland, the largest of the salivary glands. She’s been in remission from it twice. Now, the 30-year-old native Houstonian is in her third bout with ACC. She created Jamie’s Hope for a Cure with her husband, Garrick Glascock, in May to help fund research for targeted therapy at MD Anderson. “My family and I were surprised that there haven’t been any new developments in ACC treatment,” Jamie Gilmore says. “We thought surely something would be different from 15 years ago.” ACC affects an average of 135 people a year and accounts for 6-10% of all salivary gland cancers. To help create awareness, Gilmore and her family promote Jamie’s Hope by selling maroon and white bracelets for $5. They also collect donations through the website jamieshope.org. “The money we raise funds research for other rare forms of cancer and for people who don’t have a standard form of treatment,” Gilmore says. Jamie’s Hope also partnered with the Texas Realtors® Leadership Program (TRL), after Gilmore, who owns a real estate brokerage firm, joined in March. With the TRL’s help, Jamie’s Hope organized an October gala, “Masquerade for a Cure,” at River Oaks Country Club in Houston, with all proceeds benefiting targeted therapy research at MD Anderson. “Each year the TRL decides on a legacy project that will benefit the community,” Gilmore says. “Once they heard my story and what I’ve...
