Attendance is free and all breast cancer survivors and co-survivors are encouraged to attend.
Shockney, the administrative director of the Johns Hopkins Avon Foundation Breast Center since 1997, is a two-time breast cancer survivor; she has worked tirelessly to improve the care of breast cancer patients around the world.

“Education, Healing and Hope: Breast Cancer Survivor Conference” for breast cancer survivors, their families and supporters will be held March 3, 9:00 am to 2:30 pm, Hilton Garden Inn, 3720 Reserve Street, Missoula, Montana. Shockney will share insights from her book “Stealing Second Base: A Breast Cancer Survivor’s Experience and Breast Cancer Expert’s Story”, a unique, empowering, and often humorous story about her breast cancer experience from many perspectives. She will share her motivational and medical expertise and provides practical, important information on breast cancer diagnosis, treatment, and pre- and post-surgery quality of life. Lunch will be served and participants can select from a variety of Table Talk topics. A Resource Fair will be held during the conference.
