I was so excited this past Wednesday, May 8 was World Ovarian Cancer Day. Taken from their website:
On this day, ovarian cancer organizations from around the world will unite to educate their communities about ovarian cancer and its symptoms. For women living with the disease, and their families and friends, World Ovarian Cancer Day will build a sense of solidarity in the fight against the disease.
At least 20 countries got on board. And this will only grow with each year. The response was fabulous and within the day the Facebook page had over 3000 Likes. CNN and many of the national newspapers grabbed the story as well.
It makes my campaign more meaningful because truth be told, sometimes I feel like an army of one. This proves I am not alone out there. We're all in this together and someday, maybe we won't have to fight this fight. That's the dream; that's the goal.
