Host
Herself a cancer survivor, Mrs. O'Connor has made advocating unified team treatments for cancer patients for special cause. From her vantage point on the world's most noticed, and most influential judicial panel, she can not only see what the public's needs are, but with one word can greatly influence outcomes. Her advocacy of early detection and treatment weighs greatly with the American public. And we salute her efforts with this award today, for she i think is probably the best example in the world, that having breast cancer is not a death sentence, but that you can go on and be anything you want to be if you just address the problem. We honor you today. And please join me ask everyone here to join me in giving her our award today. Thank
Sandra Day O'Connor
Thank you. Thank you. I must say, Debbie, it was lovely to hear those words. But when I hear about the others you've honored today and hear the work that Dr. Klausner and people like Dr. Klausner are doing, I feel that my contribution to this discussion has been very small indeed. What this organization is about is building bridges, building bridges, from your communities and the wide sphere of brands and influence that each of you have to the centers of knowledge and skill and understanding about cancer and prostate cancer and what can be done to alleviate them? So your bridge builders and the other honorees or bridge builders, my bridge is very small. But my honor is very great. And being here today and being with all of you, and I think what you're doing is superb. So get every body else in every one of those congressional districts in the country involved with you. There's a big story to tell. Thanks
