Today is National Cancer Survivors Day, a time to recognize our patients who have and are fighting cancer. Patients like Ron Buck, a Tierra Verde resident, who was diagnosed with stage 2 pancreatic cancer last year. After undergoing extensive surgery and withstanding a 12-cycle aggressive chemotherapy regiment to battle the disease at BayCare's St. Anthony's Hospital, Ron is now a cancer survivor.

Ron is among the more than 18 million people in the United States who are cancer survivors. Today, BayCare Hospital Wesley Chapel honors every patient who is in the fight and winning.

To celebrate the end of treatment, many patients ring a bell to represent the restoration of harmony and balance in life. Ron sure did on New Year’s Eve 2025. "I rang that bell really hard," he said.

At BayCare, our team members are there to applaud the patients as they ring out of their treatment. Our oncology teams are working with the latest advancements in cancer care. And by late summer, we'll continue those efforts with the opening of our new proton therapy center.

For Ron and all our patients, you're never alone when you receive your care at BayCare. Our skilled and caring team members, physicians and volunteers are there to help. Learn more about the BayCare Cancer Institute and our services at https://bit.ly/4lIK8jz
