E 44 Philanthropic Tributes | Cedars-Sinai Medical Center Honor Roll Connections 64 Upcoming Events The Starting Point Building the Future of Medicine I f you have driven past Cedars-Sinai recently, you know that construction is underway on the Advanced Health Sciences Pavilion (AHSP). It would be difficult to overstate the sense of excitement that pervades the Medical Center as the new 11-story, 450,000-square-foot structure rises above San Vicente Boulevard. Our community is on the threshold of a new era in healthcare. The AHSP will reshape the patient experience at Cedars-Sinai. The Pavilion will continue our tradition of highest quality outpatient care—housing our renowned centers in cardiology and neurosciences and a wide spectrum of services and procedure suites—while introducing a very new level of convenience. In Los Angeles, even short distances can mean long commutes, and parking is at a premium: The AHSP will provide six levels of parking and a pedestrian bridge connecting the building to the Medical Center towers. “Our community is on the threshold of a new era in healthcare.” The AHSP will help change the way discoveries become medicine. In traditional medical settings, doctors and researchers often work in separate locations. This tends to hinder the easy exchange of insights and information, and frequently delays the translation of laboratory discoveries into new treatments and therapies. Instead the AHSP will bring physicians and researchers—across medical and scientific disciplines—under one roof. The building’s design features common areas where medical professionals will naturally interact. Their synergistic partnerships will drive innovations that make a real difference for patients and their families. Add the building’s emphasis on environmental and energy-saving design and you will begin to understand why the AHSP is generating so much buzz at Cedars-Sinai and beyond. Of course, we are as filled with gratitude as we are with anticipation—our institution is profoundly fortunate to be launching such an ambitious project at a time when so many hospitals nationwide are struggling. We look forward to bringing you updates about AHSP’s progress. In the meantime, we encourage you to reach out to learn more, and to join us as we build the future of medicine. Arthur J. Ochoa | Senior Vice President for Community Relations and Development CATALYST SUMMER 2011 1 Building Momentum Open Your Heart to Health Go Red for Women Each year on February 4, healthcare professionals at the Cedars-Sinai Heart Institute wear red in recognition of National Go Red For Women Day. The annual event aims to increase public awareness of gender differences in heart disease and to foster support for more research into treatments. Of course, every day at the Heart Institute is dedicated to raising awareness and combating heart disease, which remains the No. 1 killer of both women and men in the U.S. I n her mid-20s, lean, and a professional fitness trainer with no family history of heart disease, Danielle Burgener seemed at little risk from a heart attack. Then one night she felt “incredible pain” in her chest, jaw, and back. She and her husband, Todd, rushed to a hospital near their San Gabriel Valley home. The emergency room doctors struggled to determine the cause of her pain. One thought it might simply be an anxiety attack. It turned out to be a heart attack due to a rare coronary aneurysm. Fortunately, Danielle’s cardiologist referred her to the Women’s Heart Center at the Cedars-Sinai Heart Institute, where specialists have extensive expertise in even the most complicated cardiovascular issues. Now her condition is being successfully managed, thanks to a course of treatment set up by Women’s Heart Center Director C. Noel Bairey Merz, MD. The origins of Danielle’s weakened artery wall remain something of a mystery, however. One factor may have been her pregnancy. She hadn’t felt in tip-top shape since giving birth to her son, Jackson. After being diagnosed in her 20s with a heart attack due to a rare coronary aneurysm, fitness trainer Danielle Burgener now helps other women be mindful of their own heart health. 2 CATALYST WINTER 2011 Remembering Irving Feintech I Heart problems can happen at any age, notes Margo B. Minissian, cardiology nurse practitioner at the Women’s Heart Center. “The lesson is, if you’re having symptoms, listen to your body,” she says, calling it “frightening how often people don’t listen to the symptoms that women report.” Danielle now shares her experience with others, helping make sure those she works with pay attention to their own heart health. “I’ve gotten pretty good at doing what I need to do to avoid another heart attack,” she says. This includes keeping a portable heart-rate monitor with her and changing her workout routine to stay within recommended target zones. “I’ve learned to slow down and appreciate the small moments,” adds Danielle, “like watching my son laugh or taking a breath of fresh air.” Marketing Heart Health Gelson’s Markets partnered with the Women’s Heart Center at the Cedars-Sinai Heart Institute for the Super Heart Smart campaign, raising awareness of heart health and gender-specific differences in women. For the month of February, shoppers at Gelson’s Southern California locations found tags identifying hearthealthy foods, signs at the deli counter with heart-health information, and heart facts printed on grocery bags. Gelson’s donated 100 percent of the purchase price of each Super Heart Smart reusable bag to the Women’s Heart Center. Shoppers could even add their own donations while completing their purchases. rving Feintech, former chairman of the CedarsSinai Board of Directors, passed away at age 92 on February 5, 2011. His contributions to the Medical Center were many and wide-ranging. He was at the forefront of the merger between Cedars of Lebanon and Mount Sinai Hospital that created today’s Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. With Robert Silverstein, he co-chaired the landmark Campaign for the 21st Century to expand hospital facilities. And from 1993 to 1995, he chaired the Board of Directors. Lawrence B. Platt, chair of the Cedars-Sinai Board of Directors, noted that Irving Feintech “leaves us with a rich legacy of tireless devotion to our Medical Center. His life was a shining example of one person—through painstaking and dynamic action— enriching the lives of many, many people.” “Irving’s devotion to Cedars-Sinai knew no bounds,” said Thomas M. Priselac, president and CEO. “He gave more than 45 years of distinguished service and leadership to the hospital that meant so much to him. His passion and energy were legendary. We will sorely miss his friendship and dedication.” One of the developers of Porter Ranch, Feintech served on the boards of directors of the Music Center and the Cedars-Sinai Psychological Trauma Center, and on the honorary board of the Prostate Cancer Foundation. He also was a member of the West Coast Chairmen’s Council of the American Friends of the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra. A lawyer by training he, together with his brother Norman Feintech, owned Liberty Building Company. He is survived by his daughters Lisa Feintech and Wendy Feintech, and sister-in-law Evelyn Feintech. CATALYST SUMMER 2011 3 Building Momentum Bicycles Built for W Cedars-Sinai employees had no idea the bikes they were assembling were for anything other than a team-building exercise. The kids from Upward Bound were as surprised as the Cedars-Sinai staff to learn the bikes had been made for them. 4 Joy hen some 50 Cedars-Sinai staff members entered Thalians Auditorium one morning, they only knew they would be taking part in a team-building exercise. The 20 boxes of bicycle parts came as a surprise—but not as big a surprise as the joyful smiles that would ultimately result from the day’s labor. Mitch Martens, the senior administrative services associate in the Quality/ Performance Improvement and Medical Staff Services department who organized the exercise, tasked employees with assembling the bikes. The staffers were divided into teams, with each team responsible for building five or six bicycles. Within 90 minutes, 20 gleaming bicycles were ready for a quality inspection by staff from Echo Park Cycles, which partnered with Cedars-Sinai on the project. Everything checked out, and the bikes were judged safe for riding. But who would ride them? That answer came with the arrival of a bus filled with families from Upward Bound House Family Shelter in Culver City. Neither the Cedars-Sinai bike-builders nor the children on the bus knew what was in store. “When the employees saw the kids walk into the room wide-eyed and excited, they got it,” recalls Martens, who coordinated the surprise with Michele Rigsby Pauley, RN, MSN, CPNP, the program director for Cedars-Sinai’s COACH for Kids & Their Families® program. Upward Bound is one of numerous community sites to which COACH sends mobile medical units to provide health services and information to those with limited access to healthcare. Since 1994, the program has provided expert clinical care and social services at no charge throughout Los Angeles County for low-income and medically underserved families. “I don’t know what was more exciting,” says Rigsby Pauley, “to see how happy this gift made the kids and their parents, or to see how much it meant to the employees when they realized they’d been putting together the bikes for kids in need.” She adds that the bicycles, which came with helmets, gave the families a big emotional boost. In addition to community service and team building, Martens also wanted the exercise to demonstrate to employees who don’t necessarily interact with patients that “everything we do at Cedars-Sinai directly or indirectly affects the patient.” Perhaps that day is best summed up by the title of a course Martens teaches at Cedars-Sinai: “It’s All About Caring.” “I wanted to pay back the hospital and Dr. Liu for exceptional results from a complicated surgery, and for the respect and care with which I was treated by everyone. I didn’t feel like a patient. I felt like someone who needed help, and everyone at Cedars-Sinai was there to help me.” —ADAM SPRINGEL, patient, whose gift honored John C.

CATALYST SUMMER 2011 5 Building Momentum King’s Speeches Dr. Keith Black, Berry Gordy, and Smokey Robinson 6 CATALYST SUMMER 2011 L egendary singer Smokey Robinson made a surprise appearance at the ninth annual Martin Luther King, Jr. Day Celebration at Cedars-Sinai, joining featured speaker Berry Gordy, founder of Motown Records. This year’s event attracted the largest audience to date. The crowd overflowed from Harvey Morse Auditorium into the foyer and a nearby boardroom, where video monitors screened the program. Neurosurgery Professor and Department Chairman Keith Black, MD, co-chair of the event with Emergency Medicine Department Co-chair Joel Geiderman, MD, led a roundtable discussion with Gordy and Robinson. “My whole life has changed because of the thinking of Dr. King,” said Gordy, who produced three albums of King’s speeches. Singer Niki Haris, the Agape Love Ensemble, and the Agape House Band took the stage for the event’s finale. They performed a trio of gospel songs, and thanked Gordy and Robinson for paving the way for AfricanAmerican musicians. Changing of the Guard L awrence B. Platt became the 13th chair of the Cedars-Sinai Board of Directors on December 14, 2010, taking the helm from Mark S. Siegel. Platt chaired the Discovering for Life fund-raising campaign, during which donors contributed a record $357 million for the Medical Center’s research endowment. He has been a Board member since 1999 and served as vice chair during Siegel’s tenure. Walter Zifkin was named vice chair and Vera Guerin retains the position of Board secretary. Dr. Robert Ross, president and chief executive officer of The California Endowment, was installed as a Board member. “Larry has a deep commitment to the compassionate mission of medicine, and he leads with enviable vision and energy,” says CedarsSinai President and CEO Thomas M. Priselac. Platt will serve as chairman during construction of the Advanced Health Sciences Pavilion, a 450,000-square-foot, state-of-the-art facility that will integrate clinical care and scientific research, allowing physicians to bring scientific breakthroughs directly to patients with a “bench-tobedside” treatment approach. The facility broke ground in October 2010. “Our strength lies in remembering that everything we do is ultimately for our patients,” Platt said during his inaugural remarks at the Board of Directors’ annual meeting in December 2010. “It is their stories that define who we are. It is their triumphs that matter most.” He expressed confidence that the Board of Directors will provide strong leadership during this time of regulatory uncertainty for healthcare institutions and help Cedars-Sinai thrive financially while maintaining superb patient care. Platt has held leadership roles in several Los Angeles organizations, including the Fraternity of Friends, the Young Presidents’ Organization, the World Presidents’ Organization, and the American Jewish Congress. He is president and CEO of The Platt Collections. Platt was born at Cedars of Lebanon hospital and received his BA and JD degrees from the University of Southern California. First Lady of Cedars-Sinai W ith the passing of Barbara Factor Bentley at the age of 80, Cedars-Sinai lost a true pioneer. She was the first woman to sit on the Cedars-Sinai Board of Directors executive committee, the first to serve as its vice chair, and the first woman in the Medical Center’s 100-year history to serve as chair. “She believed that the health of our community depended in great measure on Cedars-Sinai,” said Thomas M. Priselac, Cedars-Sinai president and CEO. “She gave her time, her energy, and her understanding of our community to keeping Cedars-Sinai strong.” Bentley brought the same dedication, creativity, and skill to Cedars-Sinai and other philanthropic endeavors that she brought to Max Factor & Co., where she served as director of international marketing. The famous makeup manufacturer was founded by her grandfather, Max Factor, Sr. Bentley also served as a trustee of the Max Factor Family Foundation. In 2000, she underwent a kidney transplant, with her husband as donor. They subsequently established the Joseph and Barbara Factor Bentley Fellowship in Renal Transplantation at Cedars-Sinai. Bentley is survived by her husband, Joseph V. Bentley, daughter Judithe Salter, son Richard Raimist, grandchildren Justin, Asher, and Jennifer Hardt, stepson Norman Bentley, her sister Lita Kilpatrick, and brother Davis Factor, Jr. CATALYST SUMMER 2011 7 The Major Catalyst Bear Ed and Shari Glazer make hospitalization more bearable for kids. Necessities By Louise Cobb 8 CATALYST WINTER 2011 “Kids who are hospitalized are so overwhelmed in a big and unfamiliar place, and the bears bring them back to what they know: play time.” JOANNE ORDONO Five-year-old Anthony, who is recovering from a kidney transplant, is busy putting a bandage on his bear. He explains to Sandie that his bear is also going to need “a new furry kidney,” and goes into the details of what the recovery process will be like for his toy. “Kids who are hospitalized are so overwhelmed in a big and unfamiliar place, and the bears bring them back to what they know: play time,” explains Joanne. “They distract the kids, comfort them, and are used as educational tools to prepare them for any procedures or diagnoses the children might be dealing with.” In a technology driven world, it was important to Ed that he and Shari provide a simple childhood staple, especially in the hospital environment. “There’s only so much TV kids can watch,” he says. “The bears really engage the imagination in children. By the end of their stay, their bear has a name, and the nurses and doctors know each bear as an extension of their patient. How great is that?” J oanne and Sandie agree that the plush toy is also an excellent tool for promoting socialization. The certified child life specialists host playroom activities dedicated to self-expression, where children customdesign the bears’ scrubs with fabric paints, markers, and stickers. The children visibly relax when they enter the safe haven of the playroom and get to dive into a pile of art supplies at the center of the table—even adolescent patients like 19-year-old Alejandro, who doesn’t hesitate to pick up the glitter paint and personalize his bear to break up the monotony of waiting for test results. He inks “I love you” on a pink bear for his girlfriend, his way of saying thank you for visiting and texting him while he’s been undergoing treatment for leukemia. Ed estimates that through his family foundation and the program at Cedars-Sinai, close to one million bears have been distributed. “I am just thrilled that I can do something to help the medical staff and put a smile on a patient’s face.” 10 CATALYST SUMMER 2011 Huggy Bears Decked out in pink or blue scrubs, the bears have become an invaluable and muchloved presence at Cedars-Sinai. All patients from newborn to age 21 receive a bear upon admission to the Medical Center. Personalizing their teddy bears helps patients relax and breaks up the monotony of waiting for test results. CATALYST SUMMER 2011 11 The Philanthropic Spark A Family Affair T om Gordon is sitting in his office’s plush leather sofa with Jon Kobashigawa, MD. Artfully framed black and white photographs of his wife and two daughters decorate the wall behind them. Suddenly, Gordon gets up and pulls two employees into the room. He is now standing in the middle of his office, clearly energized, his hands sweeping through the air as he is about to make a point. “I don’t want to make this sound like it’s rehearsed,” he tells his colleagues, “but what’s the most important thing about the people I hire?” They relax. Everyone on his staff knows this one. “Their hearts,” they say in unison. Gordon nods. “What are we?” “A family.” They’re smiling broadly. So is Dr. Kobashigawa. In early 2010, he and his renowned cardiology group, the California Heart Center, left UCLA to join Tom Gordon’s family at Cedars-Sinai. Gordon is Cedars-Sinai Health System’s senior vice president overseeing the Medical Delivery Network and serves as chief executive officer of the Medical Care Foundation, a group of more than 115 physicians and allied health providers who have been delivering primary and multispecialty care to thousands of patients for more than 25 years. To this exceptional group, Dr. Kobashigawa brought a vibrant cardiology practice, thereby creating the nation’s largest heart transplant program. During 2010, the Cedars-Sinai Heart Institute completed 76 adult heart transplants, more than any other hospital in the nation. Catalyst: Tell us about the first time you met each other. Dr. Jon I originally met with Drs. Shlomo Melmed [senior vice president Kobashigawa: for Academic Affairs and dean of the Medical Faculty] and Eduardo Marbán [director of the Heart Institute]. When they called me, I had no intention of coming to Cedars-Sinai. The first call is always one of curiosity, so I met with them. They told me about their vision, and it was incredible. Then I met Tom Gordon. Tom is a towering figure, so when he comes into the room, it’s scary in a way, but at the same time, he’s like a teddy bear. He just hugged me and said, “I hope to earn your trust.” And the first thing everybody thinks is: “Is he for real? Is he really that nice?” He is. He’s genuine. He means what he says. Tom For me it was a chance to explain to Jon and his team that I knew Gordon: they had a wonderful situation at UCLA, but that UCLA is a different model. Our model is intensely physician-friendly. Catalyst: Did you have the same vision for how things would develop if the California Heart Center joined Cedars-Sinai? JK: My team knew that we were going to be supported at CedarsSinai, and that we would be able to pursue our mission: to provide the best care possible to our patients and have the best outcomes. We also knew that education and research are paramount here. TG: Cedars-Sinai was committed to expanding the Heart Institute. And it was clear to me that expanding the Institute with extraordinary researchers, clinicians, and human beings like Jon and his group would be an incredible opportunity. 12 CATALYST SUMMER 2011 “I learned a long time ago that if you hire people with heart, you can do anything.” TOM GORDON Catalyst: Cedars-Sinai is now the No. 1 adult heart transplant center in the United States. How did that come about? JK: When we moved over to Cedars-Sinai, we were flabbergasted to hear our nurses say, “We’re coming with you.” And our assistants also said: “We’re coming with you. We don’t want to break up the group.” So our chemistry remained intact, and that extended to our patients as well. Ninety percent of our patients came with us. And I have to give credit to the heart surgeons, Dr. Alfredo Trento and Dr. Robert Kass, for the great work they do. We didn’t miss a heartbeat in terms of outcomes. Catalyst: In addition to transplant patients, you have a dynamic advanced heart disease program… JK: Advanced heart disease is an area in which we are making meaningful progress. Our Cardiac Mechanical Assist Device Program is thriving. We’ll be the first on the West Coast to launch the totally artificial heart. Also, we’ve developed our advanced heart failure program—we have a whole wing dedicated to the treatment of heart failure and transplant patients. Catalyst: Looking back, how did you first become interested in medicine? JK: For me, it was because of my family. Both my parents were educators. My mother was a home economics teacher in adult education and my father was an English teacher, both in the Los Angeles Unified School District. My uncle was a physician. And he was very engaged in community work. In fact, they called him “the mayor of Pearl City, Hawaii,” where he lived and worked. Catalyst: Tom, you ran a variety of businesses before you came to Cedars-Sinai, right? TG: Yes. When I finished college, my brother advised me to go into management. His observation was that wherever he had been, there was a shortage of good managers. So I was very lucky. My first job out of college was with an industrial uniform manufacturer, where I met my mentor, who took care of me, who guided me, who told me when I was going in the wrong direction, and changed my life. One of the most important things he taught me was not to be afraid to make a decision. Wherever I went after that, thanks to his guidance, I wasn’t afraid. CATALYST SUMMER 2011 13 The Philanthropic Spark Catalyst: How do you view your role as a manager here at Cedars-Sinai? TG: I try to offer hopes and dreams to physicians. These amazing men and women who are at the top of their field are also expected to be quasibusinesspeople. That’s not what they signed up for. That’s not what they’re interested in. They want to take care of patients. The goal of the Cedars-Sinai Medical Care Foundation is to allow physicians to be physicians. We will do everything else that needs to be done for them. But the main thing that’s different about our Foundation is the culture. Most foundation models talk about being physician management practices. I want everyone who works here to feel that we are a physician support team. JK: It’s true. Tom runs it as a partnership. Tom, you really and truly have earned not only my trust but also the trust of my entire group. TG: I learned a long time ago that if you hire people with heart, you can do anything. These guys, they not only give heart, they are heart. That’s what’s so beautiful. 14 CATALYST SUMMER 2011 Jon Kobashigawa, MD, has had his share of elite titles. Tom Gordon will hijack a conversation to remind you that his friend is a superstar of the International Society of Heart and Lung Transplantation. (As past president and past program chair, Dr. Kobashigawa has held two of the society’s most prestigious positions.) But the cardiologist’s most treasured title might be the one with Tom Gordon’s name attached: the DSL/Thomas D. Gordon Chair in Heart Transplantation Medicine. The endowed chair is the manifestation of an enduring personal friendship. Land developer Donald S. Levin (the chair’s “DSL”) stumbled into friendship with Gordon while working on a Cedars-Sinai building lease. Gordon “found him to be an interesting, thoughtful man” and soon the two were trading personal histories and spending time with each other’s families. When Levin needed knee surgery, Gordon was intent on caring for him. “I went to visit him every day in the hospital. I think it meant a lot to both of us,” Gordon says. At the end of a complicated medical journey, Levin insisted on thanking his friend. Gordon suggested a small donation to the Medical Center—a token. “Mr. Levin went across the street, spoke to the hospital, and said he wanted to endow a chair in my name,” recalls Gordon. “That’s a commitment of $2 million. I actually thought that they’d misunderstood him.” Gordon was overwhelmed by the gesture, but felt the endowed chair should go to a doctor doing lifesaving work. Enter Jon Kobashigawa, MD, a newcomer to Cedars-Sinai, but already a luminary in cardiac care. “This was the perfect synergy, and it was an honor for Mr. Levin and me to have Jon as our inaugural chair,” Gordon says. He is visibly moved when talking about Levin’s unexpected generosity. “This is family and that meant the world to me,” he says. “It really did.” The Young and the Selfless By Louise Cobb R yan Gurman was distracted at his bar mitzvah. Though surrounded by 150 guests, he couldn’t help but think about the one person who wasn’t there: his grandfather. A few hours earlier, Abe Gurman had been rushed to Cedars-Sinai after suffering a heart attack. He eventually made a full recovery. But at the time, Ryan’s thoughts were with his grandfather in his hospital room. His thoughts were also with the many hospitalized children who weren’t as lucky as he was. “I thought, ‘I have my whole life ahead of me— I wish all those kids in the hospital were as lucky,’” says Ryan, a hard-charging, basketball-loving, 14-yearold who seems mature beyond his years. “I’ve always wanted to make a difference; it’s part of who I am.” With that philosophy in mind, Ryan decided to donate a portion of his bar mitzvah money to CedarsSinai and start a charitable fund to help raise money for pediatric patients: thechildrensfoundation.org. He requested that his gift go toward purchasing a neonatal resuscitation device. He also donated playdough and toys. “I wanted to give the hospital what it needed, and also put a smile on kids’ faces. Kids love toys! I know I used to!” Ryan’s gift reflects his personality: He’s practical, ambitious, and has big goals, yet he’s still a kid at heart. He’s a middle school student trying to get straight A’s so he can go to Stanford someday—all the while juggling schoolwork, playing on three basketball teams, and spending time with friends. “I’m just a regular kid. I want to see positive changes happen in the community and in the world,” he explains. “That’s what I want to accomplish.” And accomplish he did: Ryan launched thechildrensfoundation.org entirely on his own— although he clearly inherited his entrepreneurial spirit from his parents, Michelle and Arnon. His father has enjoyed great success in real estate, while his mother owns an invitation-design business. Ryan continues to expand thechildrensfoundation.org through social networking sites such as Facebook and Twitter, while also channeling donations into pediatric care and Fourteen-year-old Ryan Gurman used his bar mitzvah money to start a charitable fund for pediatric patients. “I’m just a regular kid,“ he says. “I want to see positive changes happen in the community and in the world.” Cedars-Sinai’s Maxine Dunitz Children’s Health Center. As the young face of a big project, he admits that sometimes his peer group doesn’t understand his vision. “I’ve learned that you can’t let anybody get to you. When people aren’t supportive, it’s just an obstacle that makes me want to try harder. I want to know that I’ve done everything I can to make a difference. It doesn’t matter how old you are—anybody can put their mind to turning an idea into a reality.” Developing the charitable fund has had another impact on Ryan: It has shifted his career goals. He used to want to be a doctor, but now business is what he loves. He hopes to combine the two someday. But most of all, he plans to continue his philanthropic efforts. “Starting thechildrensfoundation.org opened my eyes to why people give. I used to think, ‘It’s their money, why would they just give it away?’ Now I realize it’s one of the most amazing things one can do.” CATALYST SUMMER 2011 15 Forward Motion Spotlight on Success The most successful fundraising initiative in Cedars-Sinai history, the Discovering for Life campaign raised $357 million for the Medical Center. Two events provided a fitting conclusion to such a remarkable achievement. Former Paramount Pictures and MGM CEO Frank Mancuso and his wife, Fay, hosted an intimate gathering for top campaign contributors at their beautiful Italianate home, where guests dined poolside while trumpeter Arturo Sandoval and his band performed a set of jazz standards. “Vision” was the theme for the official closing celebration—held on the rooftop of the London Hotel in West Hollywood three weeks later. Twin beams of light shone from Cedars-Sinai throughout the evening, while telescopes placed on the London Hotel roof enabled guests to admire the institution they generously supported. More than 250 celebrants attended, and many guests danced well into the night, as “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno” musical director Rickey Minor and his band performed. 1 1 The London Hotel rooftop provided a beautiful setting to celebrate the success of the Discovering for Life campaign. 2 3 2 Leadership dinner hosts Frank and Fay Mancuso, with Karen Kay Platt and Lawrence B.

The Advisory Council was founded to provide a healing environment for patients through art. The Legacy Society acknowledges those who have expressed their commitment to Cedars-Sinai through a planned gift. 1 Maureen and Perry Herwood with Arthur J. Ochoa, senior vice president for Community Relations and Development 1 2 2 Mickey Wapner and Joyce Powell 3 3 Edgar L. Gold donated this 1975 Andy Warhol painting of Marcia Weisman to Cedars-Sinai to be placed in the Marcia Weisman Gallery on the Plaza Level at the Medical Center. The late Marcia Weisman established the Advisory Council for the Arts at Cedars-Sinai, and she and her husband, Frederick, donated a number of pieces from their outstanding collection to the Medical Center. She said: “I believe the curative powers of art are very strong. Art challenges, makes us think, diverts our mind away from bad feelings, and lets us move on to thoughts that make us feel better.” Setting Sights on Advanced Research Representatives from Luxottica Retail and its OneSight Research Foundation recently paid a visit to Cedars-Sinai to present a $35,000 check to advance research in diabetic retinopathy being conducted by Alexander Ljubimov, PhD, director of Ophthalmology Research Laboratories. California State Senator Fran Pavley was on hand for the presentation. The site visit included a tour of Dr. Ljubimov’s laboratory as well as Cedars-Sinai’s Regenerative Medicine Institute. 1 Wally Lovejoy—Luxottica Retail senior vice president of eye care development— Dr. Alexander Ljubimov, and State Senator Fran Pavley 1 CATALYST SUMMER 2011 17 Forward Motion Celebration of Life More than 100 patients and their families attended the 11th annual Celebration of Life event at the Skirball Cultural Center. Organized by Cedars-Sinai’s Bone Marrow Transplant Program, the event reunites cancer patients, their families, and donors. Today, blood and marrow transplantation is one of the most aggressive procedures used in the battle against cancer. This technique seeks to replace cancerous cells with transplanted healthy blood, bone marrow, or stem cells. This year’s event featured Angela Lopez, MD, a hematologist/ oncologist at the Samuel Oschin Comprehensive Cancer Institute who also happens to be a formally trained opera singer. 1 Longtime survivor David Ross—who attends each year with his family, which now includes nine grandchildren—chats with Dr. Michael Lill, medical director of the Blood and Marrow Transplant Program. 1 Governors’ Appointment The Cedars-Sinai Board of Governors Chair in Cancer Research has been awarded to Leland W. K. Chung, PhD. Dr. Chung is a professor of Medicine and Surgery and director of the Uro-Oncology Research Program at the Samuel Oschin Comprehensive Cancer Institute at Cedars-Sinai.

Transplant We can’t control what mantra: happens to us, only how we react to it. My spirituality gave me an added layer of strength and showed me this process was part of my journey. Heart transplant We’ve all experienced the family: universal fear of the unknown that puts our mortality in our face. Motivation to be I used to write checks to an ambassador: charity, but now I know my mission is to go out and help people hands-on. Take away: I am overwhelmed with gratitude to be alive. I feel like I’m paying it forward. The feedback I get from patients and families is phenomenal. 38 CATALYST SUMMER 2011 He a r t toHeart Having already survived and thrived following their own procedures, Cedars-Sinai heart transplant ambassadors share hope and a special bond with patients on the waiting list. K im Coleman’s warm smile falls on the pale woman slumped over in the hospital bed in front of her. The woman is fragile and frustrated: She’s been on the heart transplant waiting list for months. Her energy is so low she’s given up on eating. Now, to her husband’s despair, she’s refusing to take her medication. Kim is calm, almost Zen-like. “I used to be you,” she tells the woman. “I know you’re scared. I was, too. But you have to believe you’re going to make it. You can’t expect someone to sprinkle fairy dust on you and fix you.” She shakes her head knowingly. “You have to fight for yourself, and we’re all here to support you. Tell yourself: ‘not now and not today.’” The woman perks up a little. Kim speaks from experience. She has a scar on her chest to prove it, and she hasn’t forgotten what the journey was like. Just like the nine other volunteer heart transplant ambassadors at Cedars-Sinai, Kim, now healthy and glowing, knows what it’s like to be intubated; she can tell you how you’ll feel after your transplant, and she knows just how hard you have to push yourself in recovery. Most of all, she knows how difficult it can be to remain hopeful when your heart is failing. Bill Sears prepares Mary Perrigo for what post-transplant life will be like when she returns home, one month after her surgery. CATALYST SUMMER 2011 39 Marty Bender Transplanted: December 14, 2009 On the transplant list for: 13 months Hobbies: Going to the dog park, golfing, watching my grandchildren play sports Patient advice: Go with the flow; the staff is here to help you. Transplant Be positive. Those who mantra: are do much better. It’s all about how you approach it. Heart transplant We’ve all been through family: the same experience. It’s a brotherhood of sorts. Motivation to be I wanted to help out the an ambassador: staff and make a difference in patients’ lives. Take away: It’s the most rewarding thing to meet a patient who is scared to death of what they’re facing and go through the whole process with them. 40 CATALYST SUMMER 2011 “We have a very special connection to the heart because it’s the center of love and emotions—and I think heart transplant patients feel that connection very strongly.” —DR. JON KOBASHIGAWA J on Kobashigawa, MD, knows that men and women who have received a heart transplant often share a very special bond with patients waiting for one. “They have a unique gift because they know what the patients are actually going through,” he says. Dr. Kobashigawa, the director of the Heart Transplant Program at the Cedars-Sinai Heart Institute, started the Heart Transplant Ambassadors Program at UCLA and brought it with him to Cedars-Sinai in 2010. The ambassadors can relate to what it’s like to yearn for a real shower instead of a sponge bath; to the toll a transplant can take on a patient’s family life; and to the importance of having a good pair of headphones to tune out the beeping and hustle of a busy hospital floor. Dr. Kobashigawa quickly noticed the bonds the ambassadors were forging with patients, and the positive impact this had on their overall outlook and recovery. “When patients see how great the ambassadors look, it gives them real hope that they can get back to that quality of life,” Dr. Kobashigawa explains. “People perceive the heart as the core of the person,” he adds. “We have a very special connection to the heart because it’s the center of love and emotions—and I think heart transplant patients feel that connection very strongly.” Dr. Kobashigawa’s first heart transplant ambassador was Bill Sears, a naturally positive and soft-spoken man who got his new heart more than 10 years ago. Just six months after his transplant, Bill began mentoring other patients through the process. “Dr. Kobashigawa understood that we were the bridge between the patients and the doctors,” he recalls. Bill is now the coordinator and the backbone of the program. He is over 70 but he often jokes with patients that his 30th birthday is coming up—the real age of his new heart. CATALYST SUMMER 2011 41 B ill is sitting with Mary Perrigo in her hospital room. With fiery red hair, the grandmother of 15 is simply glowing just one month after her transplant. “Bill made me believe that I could go out and volunteer, square dance, walk, and actually have the energy to go and visit people.” It wasn’t easy for Mary to get to that positive place, and Barbara Leanse, director of the Volunteer Services Department, credits the ambassadors. “They are just such happy, giving people, and they are healing the hearts of others with the love in their own hearts. They come with dedication because they know anyone waiting for a heart transplant is at a dark moment in their life.” Kim Coleman can especially relate to how dark it can be. After she spent 10 years with a cardiac condition and a defibrillator that saved her life 13 times, her doctor recommended she be placed on the transplant list. While waiting for a heart, she lost everything she owned—her jewelry, her prized Jaguar, and her home. She relied on fund-raisers and monetary donations from her book club just to pay for utilities and put gas in the car to get to doctors’ appointments. She never gave up hope, but faced with the gravity of her situation, Kim prepared for the worst. After a stay in the ICU, she was in a wheelchair, so sick that she wrote goodbye letters to her four grown sons and planned her entire memorial service—down to what songs should be played. Then she got word: They had a heart for her. “I had to believe I was going to make it. You just have to believe.” That’s the main message Kim spreads to all of the patients she visits on a weekly basis. “Some want to hear hard facts, some just want you to hold their hand, and others need you to be their cheerleader and encourage them,” she says. T he ambassadors’ sense of how to best support a patient is something that is particularly helpful to Dr. Kobashigawa and his team. “They know when patients want to talk and when they don’t,” he explains. The ambassadors also can report things that may not be apparent to the medical staff—such as the patient’s commitment and attitude toward the strict recovery regimen they must follow after being released from the Medical Center. When Kim goes back a week later to check on the patient who hadn’t been eating or taking her medication—she finds her out of bed and completely energized. According to the woman’s husband, every day since Kim’s visit, his wife has been getting out of bed and affirming Kim’s mantra, “I have got to fight for myself.” “That’s what keeps me coming back,” Kim says. “I feel like I’m paying it forward. The feedback I get from patients and families is phenomenal—I wouldn’t trade it for all the money in the world.” For Bill, his patients are his family. He describes the connection the ambassadors share with heart transplant patients as a “special fraternity and sorority.” To better explain, Bill extends his arm, exposing his wrist and says, “Feel my pulse—that’s someone else’s heart keeping me alive.” He smiles. “It’s hard to even comprehend.” 42 CATALYST SUMMER 2011 Terry Kane Transplanted: March 30, 2010 On the transplant list for: 18 months Hobbies: Working out, reading, going to the theater, traveling… everything I did before my transplant, but with a vengeance! Patient advice: Set short-term and long-term goals, exercise, and maintain a positive attitude. The bed is your enemy. Transplant Always be on the offensive; mantra: maintain a positive attitude because it’s your mind that’s going to get you through it. Heart transplant We are a group of people family: who all have to look forward. If we dwell on the sickness we endured before, we never heal. Motivation to be When I was in the ICU, I saw an ambassador: a lot of patients who just weren’t getting it. They were slumped over and defeated. I felt like they needed something that I could provide. Take away: When I talk to patients and I see their spirits rise— especially because I don’t look sick—that’s an amazing feeling.
