Program Description

Event Details

Meet Diane Nares as she discusses her new memoir, His Place at the Table, a powerful tribute to her son and an inspiring journey that led to the creation of the Emilio Nares Foundation. Emilio Nares was diagnosed with cancer at 3 years of age. Emilio lost his life to leukemia shortly before his 6th birthday.

This book recounts the highs and lows with uncommon honesty. Ultimately, through spiritual strength and the expansion of her family through establishing the foundation (a nonprofit that provides transportation and other vital support to families navigating through their child's journey with cancer), Diane and her husband found ways to heal and transform their lives.
