                        HONORING DR. BETH DuPREE

  (Mr. FITZPATRICK asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute.)
  Mr. FITZPATRICK. I rise today to honor Dr. Beth DuPree, an oncologist 
and breast cancer surgeon from Bucks County. Dr. DuPree's care and 
compassion for her patients extend far beyond the operating room. I'm 
honored to this evening attend a ceremony in honor of Dr. DuPree and 
her many accomplishments as doctor, civic leader, and humanitarian.
  Beth founded and leads a group called The Healing Consciousness 
Foundation that provides valuable support services to anyone battling 
breast cancer and in need of support. Psychiatric services, exercise 
programs, diet coaching, or simply a shoulder to lean on are all 
provided through The Healing Consciousness Foundation. These are 
services which insurance and government programs do not provide, but 
which can be just as critical to a recovery.
  Through her dedication and her hard work, as well as the sense of 
social responsibility that she instills in others to hear the calling 
to serve, Beth has made the mission of The Healing Consciousness 
Foundation, ``Turning survivors into thrivers,'' truly a reality.
