When my best friend was dying of ovarian cancer, She spent much of her last time talking to people, speaking true words to the marrow of those she loved and cared about. It was... daunting to experience

He may do something like that...

Ovarian cancer is the one I Have to watch out for. Did the genetic test with Myriad and don’t have the gene.

But you can bet I watch for the symptoms.

Just went through being checked last year with symptoms. I don’t hesitate to push them with ‘my family member died of it..let’s make sure’

Going to do the ultrasound every year. They are cheap to do.

So I say to anyone who has had a family member who died of ovarian cancer..that is the big red genetic flag. You can get checked for free under Obamacare under certain conditions. I think just having one relative with Ovarian was enough but can’t remember as I had two incidents.

I've been doing that for years. It's the only way to live. Tell the truth, except where it will harm someone. Then, shade the truth.
