Photo: UCHealth.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>That\u2019s the case with Mary Scott, a resident of Divide, Colorado, about 30 minutes west of Colorado Springs. God is everything to her now. So is her faith.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s been a blessing for her to drive herself to receive chemotherapy treatment at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uchealth.org\/locations\/uchealth-pikes-peak-regional-hospital\/\">UCHealth Pikes Peak Regional Hospital<\/a> (PPRH) and not have to drive down Ute Pass to Colorado Springs for that care. It saves her time and gives David Scott, her husband of 32 years, respite.<\/p>\n<p>Scott, 56, was first diagnosed in December 2010 with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nationalbreastcancer.org\/breast-cancer-stage-2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Stage 2B breast cancer<\/a>. She lived in Dayton, Ohio, at the time and had surgery, chemotherapy and radiation therapy. In 2016, while living near Ogden, Utah, physicians discovered soft tissue sarcoma in her collarbone, which was removed. In 2018, after moving to Divide, doctors at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uchealth.org\/locations\/uchealth-memorial-hospital-central\/\">UCHealth Memorial Hospital Central<\/a> in Colorado Springs discovered the cancer had metastasized to her spine.<\/p>\n<p>She started on a cancer pill, then her physician, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uchealth.org\/provider\/uchenna-o-njiaju-md-hematology-and-oncology\/\">Dr. Uchenna Njiaju<\/a>, an oncologist, encouraged her to\u00a0have chemotherapy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShe knows I have a lot of faith, and she is supportive of my faith and she said, \u2018We will prayerfully go into this,\u2019\u2019 Scott said.<\/p>\n<p>For weeks, Scott had been traveling to Memorial Central in Colorado Springs for the treatment, which she has every Friday \u2013 three weeks on and one week off.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt ended up being about a seven-hour ordeal. I had to go down, have the blood work, and have the pharmacist prepare the chemotherapy which, I understand, takes time to do. But with travel time there and back, it ended up being about seven hours.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen we go down to the Springs, the traffic bothers me. After I am done with chemo, I just don\u2019t feel like driving it,\u2019\u2019 she said.<\/p>\n<p>Now, that\u2019s all changed. On Thursdays, Scott takes the 15-minute drive to UCHealth Pikes Peak Regional Hospital for her blood work. The next morning, she drives back to the hospital to receive chemotherapy. Her treatment lasts for 90 minutes.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Infusion services in Woodland Park<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>A pharmacist at UCHealth Memorial Hospital Central prepares the chemotherapy and a courier delivers the medicine to PPRH a few minutes before Scott arrives for her treatment.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is such a godsend,\u2019\u2019 she said. \u201cMy husband, he has been at my side since 2011. He has been to all of the appointments with the exception of a few, because he just couldn\u2019t make it. He\u2019s never complained.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen we lived in Utah, he drove 70 miles to the hospital in Salt Lake City. I was going through radiation every day, and he\u2019s never complained,\u2019\u2019 she said. \u201cNow, I drive myself, which is wonderful. It gets to the point with cancer that it is not always about the patient \u2013 it\u2019s about the caregivers too. It\u2019s tough on caregivers to have to drive. He deserves this break.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Njiaju said adding oncology infusion services at UCHealth Pikes Peak Regional Hospital helps patients.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are so happy to be able to offer infusion services in Woodland Park,\u2019\u2019 Njiaju said. \u201cWe have patients coming from far, past Divide and Florissant, for whom the drive to Colorado Springs can be very tasking.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_28381\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-28381\" style=\"width: 550px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-28381\" src=\"https:\/\/uchealth-wp-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2019\/12\/24094104\/mary-scott-3.jpgtiny-e1578068412291.webp\" alt=\"Nurse Heidi Swanson provides care for patient Mary Scott.\" width=\"550\" height=\"413\" srcset=\"https:\/\/uchealth-wp-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2019\/12\/24094104\/mary-scott-3.jpgtiny-e1578068412291.webp 600w, https:\/\/uchealth-wp-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2019\/12\/24094104\/mary-scott-3.jpgtiny-e1578068412291-300x225.webp 300w, https:\/\/uchealth-wp-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2019\/12\/24094104\/mary-scott-3.jpgtiny-e1578068412291-150x113.webp 150w, https:\/\/uchealth-wp-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2019\/12\/24094104\/mary-scott-3.jpgtiny-e1578068412291-200x150.webp 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-28381\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Nurse Heidi Swanson provides care for Mary Scott because of the availability of infusion services in Woodland Park.

Patients have already come from Buena Vista and Hartsel to receive therapy.<\/p>\n<p>Scott will have a PET scan done in January that will show the status of the cancer.
