“After one particular cancer treatment, I rallied myself to bring the kids to a Halloween party they do, and we all dressed up as super heroes”, she said.

A sea of supporters dressed in pink came out to view the ceremony, including Kenyatta York who describes being personally impacted by breast cancer.

Dr. Schwartzberg said, “My passion has been to trim the treatment to fit the patient so we’re not hitting them with a bazooka gun and that’s what this is all about”.
