Good Morning all! I am heading to new Jersey this weekend to give the Survivor Speech at a Relay for Life event. I have never been to one of these events and was wondering if anyone has experienced listening to the Survivor speech? I have my speech pretty much written but want to make sure I'm on the right track. I am soooo nervous. Thanks!

    You will be fantastic!
    I have heard several survivor speeches at Relay for Life events. I am sure you are on the right track, all you have to do is speak from your heart. To be nervous is normal I think, but you will be surprised how easy it is once you begin to speak. Anticipation is always the worst! Good luck! I admire your strength. Margaret

    Good Luck!
    I admire your courage! I am not good at speaking in front of people! Good luck, you will be great!

    Good luck Irish Ohio Girl
    What an honor to be asked to speak. Any survivor speech would be on the right track. Just being a survivor will give others hope. Good luck with you speech.

    Irishohiogirl's speech
    Can you say something about how your speech went, how it was received and what you talked about. I am very glad that you are healthy and well and in a postion to give such a talk.

    I did a search to see if you had said anything after the talk but didn't find anything more recent than the 16th.

    Love,

    Claudia
