Hi folks,
I just received notice that the Department of Defense, one of the largest congressionally mandated funds for ovarian cancer research, is talking about slashing the funding for ovarian cancer this year.
This is the first year that I will be a consumer advocate for the DoD Ovarian Cancer Research Program. The DoD is one of the largest funders for ovarian cancer research and the research funded has extended the lives of many women now living with chronic ovarian cancer.
If you feel inclined, please consider contacting your senator. Here's the link: http://cqrcengage.com/ovarian/home
In October 2012, a dream was realized for two dynamic ovarian cancer survivors: Anne Tonachel and Robin Bray. Their dream was to provide a restorative retreat for other ovarian cancer survivors in the northeast. When the amazing Kennedy family of Camp Kieve and The Kennedy Learning Center provided the retreat space (in honor of a family member with ovarian cancer), this restorative retreat was born.
