Go alcohol-free in July
Help people affected by cancer. Read more...
Ovarian cancer is the deadliest women’s cancer with a 5-year survival rate of just 49%.
The levels of psychological distress experienced by women with ovarian cancer are incredibly high, with women forced to deal with:
- the severity of their surgery and other treatments that can result in surgical menopause and loss of fertility
- how to tell their children about the impact the disease will have on their family
- coping with changes in their body that impact on their sexual functioning and relationship with their partner
- the very real fear they experience when their cancer comes back, which unfortunately is a reality for the majority of women diagnosed with advanced ovarian cancer
By raising funds and going dry this July, you can ensure that women living with ovarian cancer can access the specialist support they need and deserve.
