As the global community unites in a race for a cure to Breast Cancer, Aventura Hospital and Medical Center asks – Do you know a remarkable woman who has courageously battled Breast Cancer?

To mark Breast Cancer Awareness month, we would like to honor inspirational women of courage who have fought and/or continue to fight against Breast Cancer. As part of our “Amazing Grace” online competition, each Friday in October, we will choose a woman who exemplifies courage, survival, strength, and grace. Her inspirational story will be posted on the Aventura Hospital external website, so everyone can read about her!

Your job is to send in nominations! Share your story in 200 words or less, and attach a photo if you can. We want to know what challenges the women faced and how they overcame obstacles.

Send all nominations to Elizabeth.Calzadilla-Fiallo@hcahealthcare.com and use the subject line “Amazing Grace.” The deadline is Friday, September 24.

All of our winners will be honored at a recognition ceremony at our “Women’s Night Out” event scheduled for October 28 at Aventura Comprehensive Cancer Center.
