SURVIVING BEAUTIFULLY
April 10,
2005
More than 500 people attended
the 16th Annual celebration of life at the Radisson Hotel cheering
on family and friends as they walked down the runway and shared
their victories over cancer. This show is unique, in that all
"models" were cancer patients undergoing treatment or long-term
survivors modeling positive attitudes about living. Proceeds
benefit a new support program for children whose families are
affected by cancer. Photos taken at the event can be
viewed at nicolejanes.smugmug.com. There are various
opportunities to support or attend next year's event.
