September is Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month

Blessings everyone and happy September! I pray all is well. This is Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month and as most of you know by now, I am an advocate as I help people become educated about this cancer and also talk to those who will listen (and even those who won’t listen) as to why we need accurate testing, for insurance companies to not fight patients, their caregivers or families, for better treatments which is what everyone wants across the board, less misdiagnosis, for this cancer to be caught more quickly and of course a cure.

Here is a video that I recorded the other year that got a lot of attention. This is my story as to why I’m an advocate and what led me to writing my poetry book, “Crying Tears of Teal.”

Stay tuned for more posts this month and if there is anybody who does podcasts, shows, etc and would love to have me as a guest to talk about ovarian cancer awareness, please reach out to me here.

Also, with my posts you will see that I’m supporting a certain organization, I’m going to highlight different chapters of the National Ovarian Cancer Coalition this month, highlight SHARE Support and others. Today I’m highlighting the Central Maryland Chapter of NOCC. Check them out and click the pic below or here to donate to their chapter as well!

Peace and love.

Ovarian Cancer Awareness Post–Age Range and Statistics

Peace, love and light everyone. I hope all is well. In this Ovarian Cancer Awareness post I wanted to talk a little bit about some statistics that l learned and answer the question that some have asked me about what are the age ranges to look for in regards to this cancer.
.
Some of what I share in this video may shock you! When I first discovered certain information, it shocked me and I’m now even more aware about the ages that this cancer can impact. I share a personal story of some wonderful people that I met along the journey as well. I hope you can tune in and check out the video.

Ovarian Cancer Awareness Post–The Story and My Why

Blessings everyone!!! I pray all is well. This is Ovarian Cancer Awareness month and I wanted to share “The Story and My Why” and what happened when my mother, Marguerite “Sauti” Wills was diagnosed with Ovarian Cancer August of 2009.

Her symptoms were at first vague and then became exasperated. She thought she was just going through menopause (which she was), but her symptoms became very painful and were exasperated.

Symptoms from Ovarian Cancer Can Often Be Vague

Ovarian Cancer Awareness Post–Symptoms and Gene Mutation

Blessings everyone!!! This is Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month and for those who may be new to me, I’m an Ovarian Cancer advocate. I help educate people about this cancer and advocate for a cure, more treatments, insurance companies to pay the bill and for greater support from our government.

Today’s post/video talks about two areas, symptoms to look out for and gene mutations.

As I said earlier in the month, for men to please listen and read all of these posts too. Just because you can’t get Ovarian Cancer naturally, doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t be educated on it. Everybody carries the BRCA 1 and BRCA 2 gene, listen to find out more. Plus you can share knowledge with the girls and women in your life too.

Symptoms from Ovarian Cancer

This month 75% of all book sales (both paperback and e-books) through my store will go back to chapters of the National Ovarian Cancer Coalition and SHARE Cancer Support.

You can purchase on my website at www.serenawills.com/store/

Together in Teal 2020!

 

Together in Teal happened on Saturday, September 26th, 2020 where chapters, organizations, supporters and ovarian cancer survivors along with their families and friends united to do various events nationally to raise awareness and money for ovarian cancer.

Together in Teal was organized by the National Ovarian Cancer Coalition (NOCC). I wanted to do my part so please take some time out to watch the video I posted onto YouTube above.

I am still selling Crying Tears of Teal book bundles which have swag and imperative information in them for a $20 plus shipping and handling of $3.00, ($23.00 total).

You can purchase a book through my store on my Serena Wills, Author and Writer website by clicking here.

75% of the proceeds from this book bundle will go to chapters and organizations that are raising awareness. Those are Nell’d It out of Austin, TX lead by Sheila Edwards and Archette Holmes, the DC Metro and Central Maryland Chapters of NOCC and SHARE Cancer Support Group based out of New York City.

I would like to sell out of my books by this Wednesday so please help me reach that goal, so I can in return give back to these wonderful organizations. Whether you have my book (buy one as a gift for someone) or not please consider supporting by purchasing a Crying Tears of Teal book bundle.

Thank you to everyone who has supported this month! God bless and be well.
