    UCLA Seminar
    Thanks Jennifer for your post. I have attended many of the seminars, I moderate the survivors forum, everyone seems to come away having had there questions answered and learning something helpful. At the survivors forum people seem very comfortable and share things they say that they do not usually share. It is a wonderful opportunity to see others who have gone through or are going through the same thing that you are. when I attended my first CCA conference my snese of isolation went away and I became open to the community and have not left it since. I am a Stage IV survivor. Diagnosed 5 years and 3 weeks ago, NED for 27 months after liver, ovary, abdominal lymph node and pancreatic metastases. If you can make it to the seminar please come, I will see you there. Ther will be one in Houston on November 8th if you live in that area.Laura
