The Nancy Owens Breast Cancer Foundation hosted its 17th Annual Luncheon with a celebrity guest speaker, Grammy and Academy award-winner Melissa Etheridge, at the Hilton Americas – Houston. Etheridge shared her own journey of her battle with breast cancer. The luncheon also featured a presentation of the Spirit of Courage Award to Wendy Bernstein (pictured), who announced that she is cancer free. Wendy presented her award to her oncologist, Dr. C. Kent Osborne of Baylor College of Medicine. The $105,000 in proceeds from the luncheon benefitted cancer research through The Lester and Sue Smith Breast Center at Baylor College of Medicine, The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center and The Department of Nanomedicine at Houston Methodist Research Institute.
