Sadly, I think everyone likely knows a friend, relative, neighbor, or co-worker who has had a breast cancer diagnosis. However, please feel free to share this hopeful information about this helpful web-based program that is sure to give both "information and inspiration" to all those women who are looking for reliable information and examples of how they can help themselves live life to the fullest beyond breast cancer!

Diana, I didn't see this blog post until today. Do you know if a transcript of the conference is available? I know many women who may be interested in this topic; I know I certainly am. Thanks for any help!
