What an adventure and story we have with our trip to New Orleans for the 2012 C4YW Conference in February 2012! All I can say, is that if we were not all determined, strong, amazing breast cancer survivors, we would have never made it! It was a modern day Planes, Trains, and Automobiles Adventure --- it's just a good thing so many of us had "smart phones" to orchestrate our journey to New Orleans. After 24 hours of travel by: Rental Car -- Taxi -- Greyhound Bus -- Taxi -- Airplane -- Tram -- Airplane -- Shuttle.....we finally made it to our hotel in New Orleans just in time for quick showers and registration for the conference.
It was well worth our journey. The annual conference was once again amazing. We all learned so much valuable information during the breakout sessions, we spent much needed "sista" bonding time together, and enjoyed the presence and energy of hundreds of young survivors from around the world.
Next year's C4YW Conference is scheduled for February 22-24, 2013 in Bellevue WA on Seattle's Eastside. Hopefully our journey there will be a little less hectic; either way the FM Breast Friends Survivors will make the best of it!
