First Annual Cinco De Survivor A HIT Amongst Local Breast Cancer Start Up Group "Breast Frien

Press Release (ePRNews.com) - NEW ORLEANS - May 06, 2017 - Cinco de Mayo took on a brand new meaning for a group of women this year, a meaning of hope and new beginnings.  “We are so glad to get together to do this and hope to do it again next month, we just don’t get together enough as survivors” stated one survivor.  Dr. Ali Sadeghi, one of the top breast cancer reconstructive surgeons in the Southeast attended the event alongside his patients to encourage and show support.  “It is vital to our community to have such a group to lean on one another and provide one another with resources during the most challenging time of their lives, we are proud to support them in their journey,” said Dr. Sadeghi.

The local breast cancer start up support group, affectionately called “Breast Friends Forever” hopes to have monthly meet ups in the New Orleans area to both increase awareness, and network outside of typical walks and 5k events.  “Breast Cancer is not limited to October, and we want to be able to gather monthly to create something bigger.  Where this can lead, the options are endless,” stated Stephanie Robbins, an advocate for Breast Cancer survivors and previvors.
