Your website or Charity you are passionate about: National Ovarian Cancer Coalition, www.ovarian.org, it is a great website for getting information about Ovarian cancer. There are symptoms to be aware of, but unfortunately they're very subtle so most women ignore them. The more we talk about it, the more women are aware and there will be more of a chance for an early detection. One of the reasons so many woman have died from ovarian cancer is because they don't know the signs or symptoms and by the time it's diagnosed it's in advanced stages. Our voice is our tool let's get out there and talk about it.
