March is Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month. For years it has been dubbed the 'silent killer,' with symptoms of ovarian cancer often being misdiagnosed, ignored, or attributed to far less serious conditions.
One woman who knows only too well how devastating a late diagnosis can be, is forty-nine year old Wendy Morris, who found out last August that the abdominal bloating, indigestion, and chronic exhaustion she was experiencing were, in fact, the symptoms of advanced ovarian cancer.
Now Wendy is determined to speak out, hoping that her experience will help raise awareness of the condition, and might help others catch it early enough to get the treatment that could ultimately save their lives.
