Ovarian cancer – the deadliest women’s cancer – has no early detection test or universal means of prevention.
This spring, a group of ovarian cancer survivors, medical providers and caregivers will trek to the rooftop of the world to put the first ovarian cancer survivors ever on the 29,029 foot summit.
We strive to raise 2.9 million dollars for ovarian cancer prevention and early detection research and awareness.
I am trekking with the “Any Mountain Everest” team to Mt. Everest base camp in April 2023. We are raising awareness for early detection of ovarian cancer, and to support my oncologist, Dr. Joanie Hope. Two ovarian cancer survivors, Jess Wedel and Marybeth Kepner, will be continuing on to a safe and successful summit to shout from the highest peak that testing for the genetic mutation (BRCA ) be available to every woman for prevention and early detection of ovarian cancer and that increased research is necessary to fight the disease.
I am climbing as an eight-time recurring metastatic fallopian tube cancer survivor and the inherited BRCA genetic mutation, inherited from my mother and passed on to children (son and daughter) and possibly their children. My daughter at age 31 took surgical preventative measures after testing positive. She will be putting one foot in front of the other right beside me on the trek.
Our team has a goal of raising $20,000. All donations go directly to Let Every Woman Know to help the cause. Click on the link above to donate, thank you!
