Film and talk on breast cancer
Created: Oct 08, 2008 11:00 AM
As part of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Dr Kevin Hughes, of Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston, will give a talk on 'The genetic risk of breast cancer'.
And after the talk, there will be a special screening of the award-winning HBO film, 'Dear Talula', a 34-minute documentary.
'Dear Talula' is the uplifting story of Lori Benson, mother of daughter Talula, and a Manhattan filmmaker who was able to transform her own diagnosis of cancer into a journey of self discovery.
Lori will also be at the screening to answer questions that evening, along with Dr. Hughes.
No reservations are required for the event tomorrow at 7 p.m. at the Bermuda Underwater Exploration Institute, but space is limited because of the size of the auditorium.
