Resource Recommendation: Elephants and Tea __ Elephants and Tea is a media company with the mission to help adolescent and young adult (AYA) patients, survivors and caregivers know they are not alone in their fight with cancer. The Elephant in the room is cancer. Tea is the relief conversation provides.... Be Heard. Join the Herd.

Today is for Michelle Noelani Watson... the reason behind everything we do at MP (3/9/74 - 7/23/00) __ Michelle was only 18 when she found her first breast lump. Because of how young she was, doctor's didn't see a reason to further investigate. She went undiagnosed until 23 when she was applying for the Peace Corp. It was then that she was sent to do imaging, and was diagnosed with Stage IV Metastatic Breast Cancer. __ Michelle visited the Breast Cancer Resource Center in S...anta Barbara while she was in treatment. It was there she felt most at home and realized a cancer resource center was exactly what Temecula needed. She spoke with her family, and they agreed they would make her wish come true. __ Michelle passed away at the young age of 26. While she is no longer physically with us, her spirit lives on in the hearts of all who pass through our doors. When you visit the center, you feel the love and safety that meant so much to Michelle. Michelle's legacy lives on today and forever. __ See more

WAlk of Hope UPDATE Now Virtual! __ Please know how frustrated we are that we can no longer hold The Walk in-person. At this point, it is beyond our control and we have done EVERYTHING in our power to try and make this a special event for all of our survivors and thrivers. With that said, we are determined to make this Virtual Event FUN & INSPIRATIONAL for our loved ones. Help us by bonding together, and supporting our special survivors, thrivers, and angels by continuing ...to walk, from home. Our drive-thru event means you get to pick up your medal and t-shirt and wear them with pride while doing your walk! __ Nothing about this year has been easy, the least we can do as a community is celebrate this day which so many cancer patients, survivors, and thrivers need so badly. Let's not forget how resilient our loved ones have been in their cancer journeys... the least we can do is honor them the best we can <3 See more
