SUPPORTING Ovarian Cancer Research
Support my efforts in the 2025 Mother's Day Classic!
On Sunday 11 May, I'm putting my foot down to save lives.
I’m joining the Mother’s Day Classic in Wodonga particularly to help raise funds and awareness to fight ovarian cancers.
I have been personally affected by ovarian cancer. I was diagnosed with ovarian cancer (stage 2) in September 2023. I was lucky that my local doctors investigated vague gastrointestinal symptoms with a CT scan revealing the ovarian tumour. Many women are not so lucky and are diagnosed at stage 4 when the outcome is not so good. My treatment included surgery and chemotherapy and I am currently no evidence of disease which is wonderful.
Many women are not so lucky and are diagnosed at stage 4 when the outlook is not so good. When I researched ovarian cancer survival rates I was met with the devastating statistic that only 49% of women survive beyond 5 years. There was little research and clearly nothing had changed for many years.
I’m asking you to do more than just stand with me but to support me as I walk, run, and move till we’re done.
Please make a donation today to support my challenge. There’s only one way to improve treatment outcomes and ultimately stop ovarian cancer - together!
