Vancouver Girls Lets Get Together!
This sounds like a bad dating add doesn't it ;p
I live in Burnaby and would love to meet up with other ladies that have been thru the ringer and back and to hear all those funny stories I know a lot of you have to tell, or if you are just starting this journey and would like someone to talk to other then family or friends (who try to be supportive but sometimes fail miserably ;p) then perhaps we can all join forces to move each other onward and upward!
I don't pretend to know everything about BC as we all have different stories to tell, but perhaps one of us can make a difference in another's life to help them move on and have a great life ahead of us!

Sign me up for the get together, please. Surgery is on Sept 24th so I think I'll be up for it come Oct/Nov. I live in East Van, just off Commercial Drive.

Oh yes, and I've been on the other threads, but because there are so many posts I can't always keep up with the news. Don't want to miss out on the details of a rendezvous.

Hey Sneaky and Ana, I was planning to start a new thread in the next day or two and we can all give input to pick a date together so as many as possible can come. Then we can all decide where we should meet. Hopefully our out-of-town left coasters can make it too. It's wonderfully 'whelming' to be in the midst of a bunch of friends who truly get it!
-
My next surgery is oct 26 any other day works (or I will make it work)
-

Hi Ladies,
I have been out of touch as I am in Utah for the next month on vacation in St George. I would love to meet up with all of you when I get back in November. I see that "SHE" is planning on a get together date so I would love to be included so I will keep checking in! I am very happy to see that I have had some responses to this Topic as it was slow starting and I didn't think anyone was interested!
Looking forward to meeting all of you!
Jill

Hi Ladies,
I sent a private message already to you, Sneaky, but I wanted to reach out to all of you as well. My name is Alicia Cifuentes. I am hosting an event on Commercial Drive next Thursday, March 20 for breast cancer awareness and prevention to benefit breast cancer foundation, Keep A Breast Canada! I noticed your posts in the Canadian Breast Cancer Survivors Forum and I wanted to reach out to see if you would be interested in attending. We would love to have you at our premiere event! You can learn more at the link below and get in touch with me at nipitinthebust@gmail.com
