Greetings!

I can't believe summer is over and we're heading into fall. This year is flying by! Pretty soon we'll be thinking about Halloween and the holidays. I'd like to remind you about the Los Angeles Walk for Hope organized by the City of Hope in Duarte, CA. It will be held on November 9th and we've put together our own Pink-Link team. I'd love to have you participate if you're in the area. Please check out the website by clicking here.

Thank you to those members who took the time to complete the survey in last month's Power. I really appreciate your feedback and will be mailing your gift within the next couple of weeks.

Have a wonderful September and I hope you're feeling well and empowered.

Patient Privacy
The summer issue of CURE Magazine published an article about the extent to which patient privacy should be shielded from electronic health care tools. Please rest assured that at Pink-Link we take your privacy very seriously. We NEVER sell the names in our database and we'll NEVER give out names and/or email addresses to any member or non-member. It's nice to know that our special community can thrive even in this invasive internet environment.
