Congratulations on getting accepted to Lance's LIVESTRONG summit in Columbus this year. I went to this event with Michele last year in Austin, TX and it was fabulous! We were so inspired and met so many great people and learned so much. Lance had the BEST speakers, including John Kerry & Elizabeth Edwards, the U.S. Surgeon General, Michael Miliken, then we all separated into small groups and learned about advocacy, ways to help other survivors and caregivers, etc. It was so worth attending! I already went last year, but since I'm not far away in Ohio, I might see if I can attend just for Saturday or Sunday--I would love to meet more of you.
