Jodi Joskowitz’s return to Carol G. Simon Cancer Center on April 14, 2016, was a sweet visit. There were no treatments for breast cancer this time; instead, she was a featured speaker at the Carol W. and Julius A. Rippel Breast Center Rededication, paying tribute to the people who turned her fight with the disease into “a human and dignified experience.” Joining Ms. Joskowitz at the lectern were Simon Cancer Center Medical Director Dr. Eric Whitman, Rippel Breast Center Medical Director Dr. Paul Friedman and lead volunteer and donor Katie Simon. Finn Wentworth, chairman of Campaign 3SIXTY, served as emcee, noting that $2.5 million was raised for breast health in the campaign, with $1 million going toward the renovation of the breast center at the hospital and the opening of a satellite screening center at the 435 South St. outpatient services building. Attendees toured the renovated space guided by Rippel Center staff.
