Safe in the Sun: Janna's Melanoma Presentation

Hello Erica's Armchair,
It has been a while since we have written anything. As the Spring ended and we move into Summer, the Lipman/Lopez gang will be working to celebrate Erica's life in other ways down the road. The first is a presentation about melanoma and skin cancer at our church, Bethel UCC in Arlington, where Erica's memorial service was held. I presented this information in May, during Melanoma/Skin Cancer Prevention and Detection month, at my company. Please feel free to attend if you are able, the more the merrier!

Here is the blurb the church is sending out:

Safe in the Sun: Prevention and Early Detection of Skin Cancer
Presented by Janna Lipman

Melanoma is the most deadly form of skin cancer. It is estimated that almost 60,000 cases of melanoma will be diagnosed this year. Of that number, about 40,000 will be men and 20,000 will be women.

On Sunday, July 13 at 11:30 am., a program titled “Safe in the Sun: Prevention and Early Detection of Skin Cancer” is being offered free of charge at Bethel United Church of Christ, 4347 Arlington Blvd. in Arlington, VA.

Presenter Janna Lipman will share information related to the screening, prevention, and treatment of melanoma and share her personal story about her sister’s battle with this often deadly form of cancer. In a desire to educate others and save lives, Ms. Lipman first presented this program to her colleagues at a management consulting firm following the untimely death of her 33-year-old sister this April.

Ms. Lipman’s presentation will launch a new monthly seminar series being offered free to the public by Bethel Church.

All are welcome to attend. Free parking is available next to Bethel Church in the Red Cross parking lot. Refreshments and discussion will follow the presentation.
