We’re proud to highlight Washington-based author Briana Ghbein and her new book, Ada Asks About Cancer.

Drawing from her own experience facing multiple cancer diagnoses while raising a young child, Briana created this book to help families talk about cancer in a gentle, age-appropriate way.

A meaningful resource for parents and caregivers navigating difficult conversations with honesty, compassion, and hope. 💙

As we gear up for the Scramble FORE Colon STARS Charity Golf Tournament, we can’t help but think back to an unforgettable moment at the Cologuard Classic by Exact Sciences Pro-Am.

One of our Colon STARS members had the chance to play on Team Julie Foudy… going head-to-head with fellow Olympian Abby Wambach. And of course, there was a bet on the line.

The loser had to present the winner with their trophy.

Well… Joe’s team came in third and beat Abby’s team, which meant Abby had to present them with the trophy. And if that wasn’t enough, Abby also agreed to wear a p**p emoji hat on their next podcast hosted by Julie, Abby, and Billie Jean King.

It was one of those days you don’t forget. Fun, meaningful, and full of moments that remind us why we do what we do.

And let’s not forget… both Julie Foudy and Abby Wambach are 2x Olympic medalists and 2x World Cup Champions.

As we plan for our own tournament, we’re looking forward to creating more moments like this. A little competition, a lot of heart, and a whole lot of impact.

We invite you to join us on September 19th.

Thank you to everyone who stopped by the Valley View Health Center event in March to learn more about colon cancer screening and prevention.

Events like these are so important in helping patients and staff learn about screening options and the importance of early detection. Together, we can continue spreading the message that colorectal cancer is preventable, treatable, and beatable.

Let’s keep the awareness going all year long.

https://www.siff.net/cinema/in-theaters/andre-is-an-idiot We want to highlight and support this wonderful movie. Some of our Support Group Members saw it in Tucson while attending the Cologuard Classic and shared how impactful it was.

We’ll be attending the April 10 at 7:30 pm showing at the SIFF Film Center, which will include a question-and-answer session after the film. It’s playing all weekend and is a must-see. 🎬

Location: 167 Republican St, Seattle, WA 98109, on the Seattle Center Campus

Andre, a brilliant idiot, is dying because he didn’t get a colonoscopy. His sobering diagnosis, complete irreverence, and insatiable curiosity, send him on an unexpected journey learning how to die happily and ridiculously without losing his sense of humor.
