HAPPY FRIDAY | Design by Occasion

With September being Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month, this Sunday I will be attending the annual National Ovarian Cancer Coalition Run/Walk to Break the Silence on Ovarian Cancer. I started attending these walks since 2010 and I find it’s a wonderful way to connect with others by meeting people, hearing their stories and being a part of the survivor’s picture, where we all gather as a group. While on one hand it’s amazing to see all these brave women who are survivors stand together, it is sad to see that this disease affected so many women. I do know that it inspires and gives hope to those all touched by ovarian cancer in one way or another – which in my eyes is good for the soul. As we stand together and walk together this Sunday, we unite with purpose… to raise awareness and make a difference in the fight against ovarian cancer.
