Ovarian Cancer Month

 This cancer is the worst. My aunt passed away from this cancer a year ago this past July. She was so strong and fought for almost 6 years when it took over. The crazy thing about this is that there are no early tests out there to let us women know if we have it until its already in the late stages. The symptoms are also symptoms you can see at a daily basis. 
We need to break our silence on this silent killer and become more aware of it. 

Some of the symptoms:
◇Bloating
◇Pelvic/abdominal pain
◇Difficulty with eating or feeling full quickly
◇Feeling like you need to urinate often/urgently
◇Fatigue
◇Upset stomach/heartburn
◇Constipation

 You can log onto ovarian.org and learn about walks/runs near you and how to become more aware.
