Jerome was diagnosed with muscle invasive bladder cancer on January 29, 1997. The diagnosis was based on a transurethral resection surgery.
Having done his research, he contacted a doctor at Harvard and Mass General Hospital about a clinical trial for a bladder sparing protocol. To Jermoe’s surprise, Dr.Shipley called back and shared the protocol with Jerome’s medical team and the treatment began a couple of weeks later. The treatment involved chemotherapy in conjunction with radiation therapy.
Jerome experienced several recurrences over the years, each time treating them with surgery and infusions. In 2018 a recurrence involved hospitalization and tubes were placed in each kidney. This time Jerome was faced with a decision to have a radical cystectomy or given the choice to do immunotherapy. By 2019 there was little evidence of bladder cancer and infusions continued, with no side effects. He still has a tube in one kidney and is otherwise thriving!
