SHARE is very pleased to host our first live and in-person gala in three years!  

A Second Helping of Life SHARE Gala 2023 at Tribeca 360°, an elegant New York City site with 360 degree views of downtown Manhattan and the Hudson River at 10 Debrosses Street.

Nefa-Tari Moore has been an essential part of the SHARE family since she first joined an ovarian cancer support group in 2018. Her warmth, experience, and resolve have made a difference in the lives of hundreds of women with uterine and ovarian cancer, and we are now thrilled that she is taking on a new role as the Director of Black Women's Outreach.

SHARE mourns the loss of Dr. Susan Love - a fierce, outspoken breast cancer surgeon and advocate who educated the world with the breast cancer bible: Dr. Susan Love’s Breast Book. Dr. Love had a tremendous impact on the lives of those diagnosed with breast cancer by providing comprehensive information about the disease and it’s treatment as well as the “Collateral Damage” so many experience as a result of cancer’s harsh treatment.

My story begins with the words too many of us hear… “You’re too young”.

Years prior to my breast cancer diagnosis, I had discovered a palpable bean-sized lump on the outer side of my right breast. I was in my early 20’s at the time, and though I figured it was nothing, I scheduled an appointment for peace of mind.

There is never good timing when it comes to cancer. I knew this before my husband of 31 years passed away due to colorectal cancer in October 2013. I really knew it when I received my own diagnosis of breast cancer two weeks after he passed. Not only does cancer have bad timing, but it doesn’t care if you and your family are grieving the loss of someone else.

What type of breast cancer did you have?

Adenocarcinoma

When were you diagnosed, year and age?

2003 and age 68

How did you feel when you were first diagnosed?

I got a problem, what do we do about it?

What did you learn about yourself while going through your breast cancer experience?

Life goes on.

A Second Helping of Life is back and in person for the first time in three years, and we hope to see you at the celebration! Our 2023 gala is dedicated to lifting up the voice of the patient as we gather for a festive evening at the elegant Tribeca 360. With sweeping views of lower Manhattan, it's the perfect venue for a landmark event.

We hope you are inspired by SHARE’s new logo!  It debuts July 5, 2023, and will now serve as the official mark of our brand. The introduction of our new logo reflects months of work exploring our heritage, as well as what we as an organization now mean to our staff, Ambassadors, volunteers, Board members, partner organizations, and most importantly the people we serve.

I completed treatment for Stage 3 triple-negative breast cancer in June 2022. During my treatment, I developed tachycardia, a condition that caused my resting heart rate to be around 100 and could spike up 140.

In August 2022, my oncologist suggested we do a heart study.
