| BRAMAN SPONSORS CHAMPION FOR THE CURE LUNCHEON |  |
Champions for the Cure was proud to welcome Ambassador Nancy G. Brinker, founding chair of Susan G. Komen for the Cure®, as the keynote speaker at the fourth annual Pink Ribbon luncheon. This breast cancer educational seminar was held at Woodfield Country Club in Boca Raton on Saturday, October 3 at 10 a.m.
"We were honored to host Ambassador Brinker who captivated, inspired and educated our guests with her passion for the cause," said luncheon committee chair Fern Duberman. "Breast cancer can happen to anyone, and awareness begins at the grassroots level. If our message encourages just one woman to go for her mammogram, or if the funds go to one piece of research that takes us one step closer to a cure, we will have fulfilled our mission."
Ambassador Brinker promised her dying sister, Susan G. Komen she would do everything in her power to end breast cancer forever. In 1982 that promise became Susan G. Komen for the Cure® and launched the global breast cancer movement. Komen for the Cure is now the world's largest grassroots network of breast cancer survivors and activists fighting to save lives, empower people, ensure quality care of all and energize science to find cures.
Known globally as a change agent, Ambassador Brinker was included in Time's "100 Most Influential People in 2008" and was recently appointed as The World health Organization's Goodwill Ambassador for cancer control.
This year's honorary chairs are Ambassador Ned L. Siegel and Stephanie Siegel. Stephanie is a Board Member of the Komen Advocacy Alliance. The Komen Advocacy Alliance is the non partisan voice for over 2.5 million breast cancer survivors and the people who love them. Members of this 501c4 organization translate the Komen promise to end breast cancer forever into action at all levels of government to discover and deliver the cures.

Women's Journey
topWomen's Journey
Gathered at the Kravis Center on January 23rd were a thousand
participants and many renowned faculty of Johns Hopkins Medicine. The
gathering provided important health information for the participants
and also gave them an opportunity to speak with faculty members about
their health concerns.
Johns Hopkins, located in Baltimore, is known throughout the world for the quality of the care it provides and the advances it has made in diagnosing and treating diseases. On the Hopkins campus in Baltimore there are a number of hospital facilities devoted to specific illnesses and treatments. For instance, the Cancer Center is one of the premier sites for Cancer treatment in the country. Some of the Cancer Center faculty appeared at the Kravis Center event, contributing information through a panel discussion.

Some of the Cancer Center faculty appeared at the Kravis Center event, contributing information through a panel discussion.
Theo Tarantini, who headed Braman's Health Care Initiative, was able
to speak with faculty members, some of whom he has worked with at Johns
Hopkins. Among the most inspiring of the speakers was Lillie
Shockney, breast cancer survivor, acclaimed humorist, author and
lecturer who presented during the Plenary Session. She held her
audience spellbound as she described her journey through the diagnosis
and treatment of her breast cancer. Currently, Lillie is the
Administrator of the Avon Breast Cancer Center at Johns Hopkins.
Lillie and Theo had a chance to speak after the morning session about the Johns Hopkins presence in Palm Beach. Lillie indicated that while it is only a referral office, it does coordinate care of patients who want to be treated at Johns Hopkins in Baltimore, saying "it works well and we are very pleased with our presence here".
Theo voiced some concerns about the lack of Johns Hopkins physicians at the Johns Hopkins Office in Palm Beach. "A referral office is fine, but the community would like to have the presence of Johns Hopkins physicians who can see patients, evaluate their conditions and then refer them to Baltimore." Joining the discussion on this topic was the Co-Chair of the event, Mollye Block, who indicated that "one cannot duplicate the resources of a Johns Hopkins in Palm Beach, but a presence of physicians would be welcome for a limited role in getting patients referred to Baltimore."
Cheryl McDuffie, the organizer of the event and Hopkins program analyst, was enthusiastic about Theo's comments and said, "we need to stay in touch about the ideas you have for the Hopkins presence in Palm Beach, but most of all, all of us at Hopkins appreciate the role that Braman played in supporting this event. We hope that you will continue to do this in the future." Theo indicated that Braman Motors "supports many great causes and will continue to be a strong voice and leader among businesses in Palm Beach County for events such as "A Woman's Journey."
