As you are likely aware, October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Yesterday evening, we (the office of Drs. Bruno and Brown) hosted our second annual cocktail party in honor of breast cancer awareness as a way to celebrate our patients and loved ones who have had to deal with breast cancer. These women are truly special and give all of us inspiration and hope in unfounded ways.
The evening was marked by a festive room with a panoramic view of the street below. Pink balloons and pink martinis filled the room along with energetic conversation. The diagnosis of breast cancer, surgical treatment, chemotherapy, radiation treatment and reconstruction seemed to be all forgotten if only for a few hours. As a spouse of one of the patients had put it at the end of the evening... "surgery heals the body, but this heals the person".
A donation on our behalf of all those who attended will be made to the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure. We hope that breast cancer awareness will continue throughout the year.
