Pero Brandon ten\u00eda tumores en ambos ri\u00f1ones: uno grande en el derecho y uno m\u00e1s peque\u00f1o en el izquierdo. En 2002, los cirujanos de Packard le extirparon el ri\u00f1\u00f3n derecho y conservaron el izquierdo. Sin embargo, en cuesti\u00f3n de semanas, el tumor del ri\u00f1\u00f3n izquierdo comenz\u00f3 a extenderse.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEn ese momento, la mayor\u00eda de los m\u00e9dicos habr\u00edan recomendado un trasplante de ri\u00f1\u00f3n de padre a hijo\u201d, dice Keira, la madre de Brandon. Pero el cirujano de trasplantes de Packard, el Dr. Oscar Salvatierra, sugiri\u00f3 \u2014y realiz\u00f3 con \u00e9xito\u2014 un nuevo procedimiento: extirp\u00f3 el ri\u00f1\u00f3n izquierdo, extirp\u00f3 el tumor, irradi\u00f3 el \u00f3rgano y luego lo reimplant\u00f3 en el abdomen de Brandon.<\/p>\n<p>Luego, Brandon sufri\u00f3 otro rev\u00e9s. Le apareci\u00f3 un tumor en el abdomen derecho, en la zona donde le hab\u00edan extirpado el ri\u00f1\u00f3n derecho. En 2003, el Dr. Craig Albanese, Director de Servicios de Cirug\u00eda Pedi\u00e1trica de la Fundaci\u00f3n John A. y Cynthia Fry Gunn, le extirp\u00f3 el nuevo tumor.<\/p>\n<p>Brandon se someti\u00f3 a un programa intensivo de quimioterapia y radioterapia para combatir su reca\u00edda. &quot;Pasamos mucho tiempo en Packard&quot;, dice David, el padre de Brandon. &quot;Estamos muy agradecidos por la calidad de la atenci\u00f3n y la calidad del personal, especialmente por la Dra. Neyssa Marina, onc\u00f3loga de Brandon&quot;.<\/p>\n<p>Keira coincide. \u00abLa Dra. Marina es una genio\u00bb, dice. \u00abLo recuerda todo. Tiene una mente incre\u00edble. Tiene una personalidad genial, es s\u00faper amable y llena de energ\u00eda. Y siempre se dirige primero a Brandon; le habla a su nivel\u00bb.<\/p>\n<p>Durante su hospitalizaci\u00f3n, Brandon pas\u00f3 muchas horas en la Zona Siempre Joven, la sala de juegos del hospital. Tambi\u00e9n disfrutaba viendo pel\u00edculas y jugando con perros de terapia. Y hubo sorpresas. Un d\u00eda, los artistas de Pixar que trabajaban en la pel\u00edcula animada Buscando a Nemo vinieron al hospital y dibujaron para los pacientes.<\/p>\n<p>Ahora en cuarto grado, Brandon se ha convertido en un atleta y estudiante de \u00e9lite. Sigue acudiendo a Packard para sus chequeos anuales, pero ya no tiene c\u00e1ncer. &quot;Si el Dr. Salvatierra no hubiera sugerido esa nueva cirug\u00eda, Brandon habr\u00eda tenido que someterse a un trasplante y tomar medicaci\u00f3n antirrechazo el resto de su vida&quot;, dice Keira.<\/p>\n<p>En agradecimiento, los padres de Brandon se unieron al C\u00edrculo de Cuidado Infantil, una importante fuente de apoyo anual para las mayores necesidades del Hospital.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDestinamos gran parte de nuestras donaciones al Fondo de Servicios Sociales de Packard, para que las familias con dificultades econ\u00f3micas no tengan que preocuparse por cosas como el alquiler, la comida y las facturas de servicios p\u00fablicos\u201d, dice David.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCuando pasas semanas en el hospital, conoces muy de cerca a otras familias\u201d, a\u00f1ade Keira. \u201cMuchas de ellas tienen problemas econ\u00f3micos adem\u00e1s del c\u00e1ncer de su hijo. Es desgarrador. Por eso creemos que es tan importante ayudar a Packard a seguir ofreciendo sus servicios a toda la comunidad\u201d.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A los 10 a\u00f1os, Brandon Pride de Morgan Hill fue elegido presidente de la escuela, compiti\u00f3 en las Olimpiadas Juveniles y obtuvo un cintur\u00f3n marr\u00f3n en Taekwondo...<\/p>","protected":false},"author":17,"featured_media":3594,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_relevanssi_hide_post":"","_relevanssi_hide_content":"","_relevanssi_pin_for_all":"","_relevanssi_pin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_unpin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_include_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_exclude_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_no_append":"","_relevanssi_related_not_related":"","_relevanssi_related_posts":"","_relevanssi_noindex_reason":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[148,22],"class_list":["post-3593","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-in-the-news","category-patient-stories"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.2 (Yoast SEO v27.2) -
