Recently I had the pleasure of spending the day with my Mom as she celebrated her 89th birthday. 45 years ago when she was diagnosed with uterine cancer we didn’t know if she would survive to see this day! 20 years ago when I was having “female problems” I was afraid I was following in my Mom’s footsteps. Fortunately that was not the case so we were able to celebrate this recent occasion together.
That’s why I am involved with the Teal Tea Foundation. I want to help find a cure for ovarian cancer so my two daughters never have to worry about this dreaded disease. My involvement has introduced me to many heroic survivors of ovarian cancer and that just makes me want to do even more.
My wish is that all who read this have a blessed and healthy new year in 2013. And that we find a cure very, very soon!
