I am excited to be part of the "Celebration of Survival" conference to be held at the David S. Zocchi Brain Tumor Center at Monmouth Medical Center on Friday, June 6. After Dave passed away, it was my hope to help build something that would support families while dealing with the diagnosis and treatment of a brain tumor. At this conference, we are excited to share what is on the frontier for brain tumor treatment and rehabilitation techniques. We will present information that can help patients deal with everyday issues such as memory loss, physical limitations, speech difficulties, job related stress, financial changes, family dynamics and more. This day is about gaining the quality of life you deserve and celebrating the gift of survival. It is also about sharing the day with others who are finding ways to "live" with their brain tumors.
I hope you will join us at this uplifting and information filled event. We will end the day with a concert from award winning singer-songwriter (and long time GBM survivor) David Bailey. We are very fortunate that the Monmouth and Ocean County Brain Tumor Support Group has sponsored this performance. You will be inspired by David's music, his message of hope and his personal story of survival. We also will provide a place for patients to rest if they need a break during the day's activities. The flyer and registration form is attached. I hope to see you there!
