Cancer Hates Kisses Book Signing — Finding Your Strength In Life’s Biggest Challenges
Sept 25, 2025
Meeting Room 15
Mastering Self-Talk & the Mental Load
Jessica Reid Sliwerski had a 3-month-old baby at home when she felt the lump in her breast. A doctor’s diagnosis confirmed her worst fear — invasive breast cancer.
As a new mom fighting for her life, Jess channeled her daughter’s giggles, hugs, and kisses into the “superhero mom” courage she needed to beat cancer. Now her children’s book, Cancer Hates Kisses, gives parents fighting cancer the power to talk to their kids about the disease with that same sense of courage.
Join Jess for an intimate book signing event to hear how she found the strength to battle the fear and doubt of a cancer diagnosis, how she turned a crisis into a catalyst for change, and how she navigated one of life’s biggest challenges with grace, strength, and self-compassion.
The first 50 attendees will receive a free copy of Cancer Hates Kisses, signed by the author.
