Pls. Help- take a survey to improve OVCA funding

0 Recommendations

My organization is conducting a survey in the hope of finding some common link between women with Ovarian Cancer. I would also like to show that many of the women who are being affected by Ovarian Cancer are young. Several large organizations have contacted me regarding the survey and once I have compiled the information, it will be heading off to Washington, DC to demand an increase in funding for OVCA.

Please help out and participate, it will only take a few moments to complete on line:

Hi Kathy. I took the survey this morning. I am interested in the results. I was reading a post today about autoimmune diseases. I was wondering how many women have autoimmune themselves or a family history of autoimmune that also have ovca? Have you seen a correlation?

kathy6

No I really haven't, but you never know what can transpire.. I don't want to base anything on 100 surveys, I think to get a real feel as to what is going on I would need a few hundred- so still working on getting that- so please spread the word about the survey!!!

Thanks for taking it!!

Hi Kathy, I just did the survey. You are doing a wonderful service to us all and it is how breast cancer initially got started to get their recognition and funding. God bless you and thank you for all you are doing to help all of us.

Hope things are going well with you!!
