The program for the Feb. 4 Woman of Wellness (WOW) event was presented by Kim Goodnough, executive director of Michelle's Place: A Breast Cancer Resource Center, in Temecula, which is open to all women in the area who need it.
Goodnough explained that the center was the dying wish of Michelle Watson who died from breast cancer in July 2000 at the age of 26. Her young age lead doctors to repeatedly dismiss her symptoms so that by the time she was diagnosed at 23, she had stage 4 cancer. She longed for a place where she could find help in coping with her disease, Goodnough said.
