does anyone know how i could get a schlorship to SABCS? I tried Alamo BC foundation and i have to attend PROJECT lead first. I really want to go this year because Dr. Salazar from Seattle said she is going to be presenting the results from the vaccine trial i was in. I want to sit in the audience and smile at her to whole time!!If anyone knows who i can contact thanks!

Michelle how about the Komen Foundation for grants or have you used them for something else. You would need to check on them ASAP because there is a deadline, I believe its in Sept. Keep trying and how about contacting your doctor and telling her how you feel about being there??? Sounds exciting and I would want to be there. Keep us updated as I would love to meet you there. hugs, Sandy

Michelle
I am going, I tried the Komen affiliate and they said they had already allocated the money for this year...maybe you will have better luck... I am still waiting to hear from the main one in Texas...they also said they had already allocated all funds for this year. I have been waiting 2 weeks to hear back to see if they do a grant to help with airfare . I would love to meet you too!
