Wednesday, October 1, 2008 The Center for Restorative Breast Surgery (CRBS) will host a special EnCourage Support Group meeting in October, in honor of National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. An exclusive screening of P.O.V.** In the Family will take place at the Center. The film, which intimately explores the lives of the women Joanna Rudnick met through FORCE (Facing Our Risk of Cancer Empowered), an organization that helps those with the BRCA mutation, is an eloquently moving tribute to those facing the question of whether to find out their risk and what to do afterward. This October, CRBS will exclusively underwrite the airing of P.O.V. In the Family on WYES. Visit www.wyes.org for airdate. Wednesday, November 12, 2008 |
