All these photos are from the beautiful Susan G. Komen Survivor Breakfast in the Inland Empire. The breakfast took place at the Pachanga Resort and Casino and it was just a beautiful weekend. I had the honor of being the Keynote Speaker and as you can I see I got everyone involved. It was a lot of fun and I just really enjoyed it. There was about 500 beautiful survivors in attendance. It was such a pleasure to be able to share my story, and even more of a joy to meet some beautiful women with their own stories.
I was also very blessed to have my Mom go along. We spent the night at the Resort and had a very nice dinner with Yvonne, her husband Frank, Debbie and her husband, Matt. Both Yvonne and Debbie work for Komen. They are all very kind people, very giving and just enjoyable company, true Superstars!
I was also so happy to have two dear friends help at the event. Komen allowed me to sell my books at the event and I was thrilled to be able to donate a percentage to help such a wonderful charity. At my table I had two beautiful friends and survivors help sell my books and my new “Everyday Gal” t-shirts. Debbie and Sylvia, both from the video; Debbie our leading actress and Sylvia our supporting actress and friends ever since. They both did a wonderful job helping everyone with their purchase and me as I signed books. I am so blessed with support!
So a beautful hotel, a wonderful time with my Mom, wonderful new friends and a great visit with old ones, a wonderful talk, great participation and a room full of inspirational, beautiful, positive survivors!
All and all, just an amazing weekend that I will always remember!
