LAURA BUSH DELIVERS REMARKS ON THE U.S.-MIDDLE EAST PARTNERSHIP ON BREAST CANCER AWARENESS AND RESEARCH, ABU DHABI, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES, AS RELEASED BY THE WHITE HOUSE
OCTOBER 22, 2007
SPEAKER: FIRST LADY LAURA BUSH
[*] BUSH: Thank you very much. Thank you, Dr. Ahmed. I'm very happy to be here. I also want to recognize Kenneth Ouriel, the Chief Executive Officer of the Sheikh Khalifa Medical City; and Hala Moddelmog, the President and CEO of Susan G. Komen. Thank you very much.
Doctors, patients, researchers, government officials, community leaders, survivors, distinguished guests -- I'm so happy to be here. Thank you for your very warm welcome to the UAE.
I'm delighted to be in Abu Dhabi to talk about how we can work together to save women's lives -- by raising women's awareness of breast cancer. Over the next quarter-century, an estimated 25 million women around the world will be diagnosed with breast cancer. Breast cancer knows no boundaries, which is why people from every country must share their knowledge, resources and experience to overcome this disease.
