Lisa Niemi To Discuss Life Without Patrick Swayze At Women's Conference

Patrick Swayze's widow, Lisa Niemi, will participate Tuesday, October 27th in a workshop on how to deal with grief and pain at the Women's Conference 2009, which will be held in Long Beach, California.

Niemi isn't the only celebrity on the panel, as she will join Elizabeth Edwards and Susan St. James, both mothers who had to bury their children after horrific accidents; California First Lady and Women's Conference host Maria Shriver, whose mother Eunice and uncle Ted Kennedy died this summer, will act as the moderator.

Niemi, Swayze's longtime love he shared a 34-year marriage with, lost her husband September 14th, when the 57-year-old Dirty Dancing star died after a brave two-year battle with pancreatic cancer.
