30 Years Cancer Free - Marty's Story
This April, Marty Randal, a long-time Our Clubhouse member and supporter, celebrated 30 years of being cancer free.
In celebration of his anniversary, we are sharing his story in hopes that it inspires others who are battling cancer.
I was diagnosed with Hodgkin's Lymphoma when I was 17 years old.
During the next 8 months, I had a surgery to remove my spleen, six rounds of chemotherapy, and two rounds of radiation. In my 20's, I watched two friends pass away from cancer, both also in their 20's. My dad battled Myeloma for over four years before he passed in late 2005.
I walked into Our Clubhouse, then known as Gilda's Club Western PA, in February 2009 because I had heard about their warm and inviting Clubhouse.
Walking into Our Clubhouse was a way for me to rejoin the cancer community that I had never really left, as all of those who have been diagnosed can attest. I was searching for more and better information on the treatment impacts as well as a way to fight this disease that takes so much.
I found that help at Our Clubhouse and have made lifelong friendships.
To give back to an organization that has given me so much, I formed a group of young adults who raised funds
to help all of those impacted by cancer and we raised over $75,000 since 2010. This effort, along with my active membership, has led me to join the Our Clubhouse Board.
Inspired by another member, I started a blog called Pittsburgh Perseverance which chronicles my cancer journey and the journey of other young adults.
Until we find a cure for cancer, we need to support places like Our Clubhouse where people impacted by this disease can gather to cry, laugh, give advice, and share stories.

Camp Clubhouse for Kids Touched by Cancer
Camp Clubhouse is a one-week day camp held every summer at Our Clubhouse for children touched by cancer. Children, ages 5 - 13, are invited to join us for a week full fun activites like art workshops, cooking classes, games, and much more!
Teens, ages 14 and up, are welcome to attend as junior counselors and help with the day-to-day activites of Camp Clubhouse.
Camp Clubhouse is designed specifically for children impacted by a cancer diagnosis and offers special programs that provide children with opportunities to connect with each other. Parents get the day off, as the children may be at the Clubhouse during those days without their parent/guardians.
Register by sending us the Camp Clubhouse Application or by contacting Krista at (412) 338-1919 or kburgbacher@ourclubhouse.org.
Deadline to register is June 20, 2014.
