A new liver. A new life. A triathlete is born.
My education regarding organ donation came fast and furiously, and after I had received the gift of life. The pink dot has always been on my driver’s license; it seemed like “the right thing to do”. I had no idea the implications of that simple dot. I had no idea of the size of the transplant waiting list. I had no idea of the nature of the decision that would be made by a family faced with honoring the profound vision behind the dot. (more…)
Pink Ribbon Program for Breast Cancer Survivors
We believe in the healing power of exercise to help patients recover physically and emotionally from their illness. Exercise therapy is gaining more and more support from the medical community as a viable complimentary treatment for patients. In fact, some physicians are now giving patients written prescriptions for exercise, along with prescriptions for medications.
One of our goals at the Healing Moves Foundation is to bring these special physical activity programs to our communities. To achieve this goal, we are excited to announce our participation with the Pink Ribbon Program designed for breast cancer patients. This program helps restore the quality of life and healthy body image for those who have been diagnosed with breast cancer despite any physical limitations brought on by their course of treatment.
The Pink Ribbon Certification Program is open to physical therapists, occupational therapists, Pilate’s instructors, physical fitness professionals, registered nurses, and healthcare professionals. Currently, the program has certified over 400 instructors in the United States, Australia and Europe.
