Overlooked: Women's Health Can't Wait

It took my awhile to listen because of the haunting memories of my mother with this illness and having vague symptoms and the diagnosis was stage 4. It’s been 31 years since she passed and it’s good to know that there is more research and that there are woman that have survived. Thanks to you and your mom sharing your story.

Powerful heartfelt storytelling. Thank you for making this.

Thank you for this. I am in Ontario and my sister died of ovarian cancer, at the age of 28, in 2006. It is referred to as “the cancer that whispers” because by the time most women find out they have it, it’s quite advanced and often too late. I am sad to hear that your mother’s story is so similar to my sister’s with the misdiagnosis and time wasted figuring stuff out. We must be aware of the symptoms and be LOUD to have our voices heard when something feels not quite right. I am happy to hear your mom’s voice and her story. I am happy you are with her for this journey.

Excellent podcast… well presented, with the right amount of passion, education regarding this monster disease and a fluid storyline in easy to digest segments. I wish you and your family well… your mom is a lovely woman.
