On February 2, 2019, I attended the University of Toledo, Rockets for the Cure women basketball game taking on University of Bowling Green Falcons. I was among a select few breast cancer survivors to be recognized on the basketball court prior to their game and was escorted arm in arm by a BG player, #3 to the center court. The basketball players and fans were all wearing something pink in support of breast cancer awareness and benefiting Susan G. Komen of Northwest Ohio where 75% money raised is used to support programs and survivors here in our local community.
The University of Toledo provided us survivors a private suite and I took my TNBC researcher, Dr. Tiwari as my guest to support this great cause. From my suite, we watched UT Rockets 76-56 win over BG falcons. Thank you University of Toledo, Komen of Northwest Ohio and our local community for your continued support of us survivors and going forward to find our cure!
