  • I always attend this event, one year I met someone from the Ralph Lauren Center for Cancer Care and Prevention and made an appointment for a colonoscopy. I had pre-cancerous polyps that had they not found them then, my prognosis would have been worse. The Center is affiliated with Memorial Sloan Kettering hospital for more info
