This is a great post (not the subject of course) Again I am fortunate enough not to have lost anyone to this and I hope that it remains that way but women need to be made aware of the signs and how to check etc. Its great that you are using your blog to raise awareness - Thanks for this. x

My very good friend lost her sister to cancer last month. The cancer itself she actually beat but it was the effects of the treatment that overwhelmed her in the end. She got better and then just slipped away. My friend gave birth to her first child a few days later. It was heartbreaking. It's one of those things which touch you for life. It's not just the patient who is effected. It's every family member, friend and colleague. It even touches the future. Im not sure what these charities actually do or achieve but the fact they make people discuss these things and be aware is very important imo. Well done for highlighting us about this wonderful cause.

This post is beautifully written and made me cry. I lost my mother to ovarian cancer 19 years ago - she was 55. I had my ovaries removed in January this year because I was 50 and very high risk. Well done.
