We have shared our inspirational tag-team message with audiences at medical conferences and cancer centers; to business, church and community groups; and in classrooms of high school, college and nursing students (you’ll love Garys dry sense of humor!).

We also share information and resources about DEFEATcancer - a survivorship empowerment program founded by Dr. Archie Bleyer focusing on nutrition, physical activity, education and inspiration.
