That doesn\u2019t mean his path has been easy or straightforward. The three-time cancer survivor\u2014first diagnosed with neuroblastoma as an infant\u2014had many surprising stops along his personal and professional journey (including almost 12 years as a scientist!) before finding a role tailor made for him.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Today, Jasan is the senior director of Foundation Relations at the Lucile Packard Foundation for Children\u2019s Health, where his science background, survivor\u2019s perspective, and nonprofit expertise fuels his work to raise funds to tackle some of the hardest problems in children\u2019s health.

Can you walk us through your cancer journey?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>My first diagnosis was in 1976, when I was about six or seven months old. I had neuroblastoma on the left side of my neck. The tumor was removed, and I had radiation treatment on that part of my neck. That radiation most likely caused thyroid cancer when I was 15. I had a thyroidectomy and radioactive iodine treatment. Then when I was 21, the thyroid cancer came back\u2014I had a higher dose of radioactive iodine. My last cancer treatment was in 1997, so I\u2019m coming up on 30 years, which is wild.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How did those experiences affect you emotionally over time? And what helped you move through it?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>When I was 15, that\u2019s when the depression hit. I didn\u2019t want to talk about it. I buried it. From 15 through my early to mid-30s, I really struggled with mental health. There was always something missing. I still can\u2019t even really describe it, other than feeling like I was in a bad mood.<\/p>\n<p>I found a support group here in the Bay Area for adolescent and young adult cancer patients and survivors. I felt really compelled to go, but I didn\u2019t want to go. I would get there, park, sit in the car [and] listen to the radio for 20 or 30 minutes. Eventually, I went in. I think for the first year I didn\u2019t talk at all beyond saying, \u2018I\u2019m Jasan and here\u2019s my cancer history.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>But there were a couple people really involved in advocacy. I credit them for sparking that idea in my brain.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How has the way you tell your story changed over the years?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>At first it was, \u2018Here\u2019s my story, I\u2019m a survivor, yay\u2019\u2026 I just wanted to get it over with. Then it moved into: \u2018Here\u2019s what adolescent and young adult cancer survivorship looks like.\u2019 Now\u2026 I talk about how patients should be equal partners in research. I\u2019ve been through this for almost 50 years\u2014I want to use that. [Cancer patients and survivors] want to tell you what we need. We don\u2019t want to be told what we need.<\/p>\n<p><strong>You had a long career in biotech before moving into fundraising. What motivated the shift?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Like every pediatric cancer survivor, I originally wanted to be a doctor. I applied to med school a few times and didn\u2019t get in. At the end of my senior year of college, I didn\u2019t know what I should do, and my mom said, \u2018You should go to grad school.\u2019 I was able to enroll at Loma Linda University to study microbiology and molecular genetics. It was full circle because it\u2019s where I was treated for the neuroblastoma [as an infant].<\/p>\n<p>I was a scientist for almost 12 years. It was interesting but super tedious. [Eventually] I was laid off and that was super scary, but I had already started at the University of San Francisco in the nonprofit administration master\u2019s program. The layoff was about halfway through that program, and I was able to transition to a Palo Alto foundation that funded basic science research. At first, I was looking into cancer advocacy, but I was doing a ton of volunteer work at the time. I had this epiphany: \u2018That\u2019s going to be a lot of cancer all the time, and that\u2019s going to burn me out. It\u2019s just not going to be healthy.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Now I lead the Foundation Relations team at the Lucile Packard Foundation for Children\u2019s Health. It lets me merge the personal, professional, and volunteer work I care about. And the cool part is that I don\u2019t only raise money for cancer, even though it means so much to me. It gives me a balance where I\u2019m not all cancer all the time.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What role does patient storytelling play in the research world?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Stories are incredibly powerful&#8211;that\u2019s what drives people. The science is complicated. But when someone says, \u2018All that science helped me and now I\u2019m good,\u2019 that hits home. We talk about this a lot on our Patient and Family Advisory Council for the Stanford Adolescent and Young Adult Cancer Program. We ask: is it the right time for this patient to become a volunteer or get involved with advocacy? Are they ready to share? Sometimes it helps process what happened. But survivors shouldn\u2019t feel pressured to be advocates or storytellers.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What impact has Cannonball Kids\u2019 cancer had on Stanford\u2019s research programs?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>That DIPG clinical trial from Dr. Monje\u2014she had one patient with complete response and no tumor whatsoever. That\u2019s a brain tumor that had basically no cure and very little progress in decades. To know that there are kids now who are going to make it because of CKc\u2019s support\u2014that just means a ton to me. Every donation counts, whether it\u2019s a dollar or $100,000.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What\u2019s something you wish more people understood about life after cancer?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Once the treatment is finished, you\u2019re not done. Pediatric cancer is not a death sentence\u2014but it\u2019s definitely a life sentence. It\u2019s a family disease\u2014it affects everyone, not just the patient. I\u2019d also say: \u2018Get the mental health stuff dealt with\u2014don\u2019t bury it.\u2019<\/p>\n<p><strong>Any closing message for survivors?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you don\u2019t want to climb Mount Everest or be a huge fundraiser, that\u2019s awesome\u2014go live your best life, whatever that looks like for you. Do whatever works best for you. Don\u2019t feel bad about not being a \u2018super survivor.\u2019<\/p>\n<p><em>Watch the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=LZOZrcxjy4M&amp;ab_channel=OfficialCannonballKids%27cancer\">full vodcast<\/a> to learn more about Jasan\u2014or join the community <a href=\"https:\/\/lpfch.org\/donate-cancer\/\">making an impact in pediatric cancer<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u179c\u17b6\u1798\u17b7\u1793\u1798\u17c2\u1793\u1787\u17b6\u179a\u17bf\u1784\u17a0\u17bd\u179f\u17a0\u17c1\u178f\u17bb\u1791\u17c1\u1780\u17d2\u1793\u17bb\u1784\u1780\u17b6\u179a\u1793\u17b7\u1799\u17b6\u1799\u1790\u17b6 Jasan Zimmerman \u1780\u17be\u178f\u1798\u1780\u178a\u17be\u1798\u17d2\u1794\u17b8\u1794\u1784\u17d2\u1780\u17be\u178f\u1797\u17b6\u1796\u1781\u17bb\u179f\u1794\u17d2\u179b\u17c2\u1780\u1782\u17d2\u1793\u17b6\u179f\u1798\u17d2\u179a\u17b6\u1794\u17cb\u1780\u17bb\u1798\u17b6\u179a \u1793\u17b7\u1784\u1782\u17d2\u179a\u17bd\u179f\u17b6\u179a\u178a\u17c2\u179b\u1794\u17d2\u179a\u1788\u1798\u1798\u17bb\u1781\u1793\u17b9\u1784\u1787\u17c6\u1784\u17ba\u1798\u17a0\u17b6\u179a\u17b8\u1780\u17d4 \u1793\u17c4\u17c7\u1798\u17b7\u1793\u1798\u17b6\u1793\u1793\u17d0\u1799\u1790\u17b6\u1782\u17b6\u178f\u17cb\u2026<\/p>","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":21787,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","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":[21,164],"class_list":["post-21759","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-donor-stories","category-research","health_topic-mental-health","health_topic-pediatric-cancer"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.2 (Yoast SEO v27.2) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Meet Jasan Zimmerman: Pediatric Cancer Survivor Turned Fundraising Leader and Research Advocate - Lucile Packard Foundation for Children&#039;s Health<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/lpfch.org\/km\/impact-stories\/meet-jasan-zimmerman-pediatric-cancer-survivor-turned-fundraising-leader-and-research-advocate\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Meet Jasan Zimmerman: Pediatric Cancer Survivor Turned Fundraising Leader and Research Advocate\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"It\u2019s not a stretch to say that Jasan Zimmerman was born to make a difference for kids and families facing cancer.
