It can be a challenge for patients not to have family members or friends with them during appointments and treatments to prevent the spread of COVID-19, especially when there\u2019s a reason to celebrate.<\/p>\n<p>The MD Anderson at Cooper team has come up with a creative way to carry on the tradition of \u201cringing the bell\u201d to celebrate the end of a patient\u2019s chemotherapy and radiation treatments. To allow family and friends to join in the celebration during the pandemic, patients are now given a hand held bell to take home as both a memento of the end of their treatment and a way to celebrate with their family \u2013 sometimes right outside the cancer center.<\/p>\n<p>Francisca Martinez enjoyed celebrating the end of her chemotherapy treatment earlier this week. She was greeted by her family who was waiting just outside of the doors of MD Anderson Cancer Center at Cooper. The family created homemade signs of congratulation and support and showered her with flowers to mark the occasion.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Francisca surrounded by her family, celebrates with her bell and a certificate marking her end of treatment.\u00a0 The team at MD Anderson Cancer Center at Cooper recognizes the importance of celebrating life and the milestones that come along a patient\u2019s cancer journey \u2013 even during a pandemic.
