In 1984, 150 calendars were printed and the number has increased to 600 calen- dars printed in 1994. The profits from the calendars also pay for workshops and support various projects.

With everything we've got. And we've got a lot. We cover every aspect of the disease, from providing information about tative measures, to early 5; detection, to treat- ments, to follow- up. We are truly § state-of-the-art, in equipment and in expertise. A Major Cancer Center So thorough is our approach to ¢ this disease the American College of Surgeons has designated us a Community Hospital Comprehensive Cancer Center. And that, appropriately, is the name you'll see on our newly expanded facility at Gaston Memorial. To achieve this status we had to meet a criteria for treatment, staff expertise, patient and family care, and data collection that equals or exceeds other cancer programs throughout the United States. 3 The Weapons There is no single approach to the treatment of cancer. So we employ vd a GO all the best weapons available. For radiation treatment we have recently added a second state-of-the-art linear accelerator, a device that can target and attack tumors with pinpoint accuracy. In chemotherapy, we use the latest cancer fighting drugs, some of which have minimized side effects dramatically. And when surgery is required, a patient will find himself in the hands of some of the finest surgeons any- where, recruited from throughout the United States. But no one physician works alone with a patient. At The Comprehensive Cancer Center, treat- ment is a team effort, utilizigg all the brain power and talent we have. Hometown Ways We may be a major cancer center, but we haven't overlooked or outgrown the patient's needs for warmth and understanding and a caring attitude. People who have had cancer know just how important thatis. * God forbid you'll get cancer. But if you do, be glad you live in and around Gaston County. aston SE G ==/ HealthCare
