The best part of a “virtual” walk is stopping for donuts along the way @SusanGKomen #MoreThanPink #WalkWhereYouAre #survivor

A breast cancer diagnosis can bring on a wide range of emotions including shock, fear, sadness, anger and grief. These feelings are normal. Some people find a support group or talking to a counselor or therapist helpful in coping with these feelings. qoo.ly/37vrzn

Please take a moment to read my op-ed in today's edition of @USATODAY. We cannot disregard science; we must follow it. We are making tremendous progress in saving lives and now is not the time to relax cancer screening guidelines.

Look at this turnout!
When good programs are offered, people will come.
I’ve heard people say the local MBC conferences across the country being put on by @SusanGKomen are a waste of money.
How else would the attendees in this DC session in Spanish be getting info?
