September |
|
My mother, Joyce Welch, fought her battle against gynecological cancer for less than a year. She listened to the oncologists and did everything she was told, every treatment that was offered. She never lost hope - nor did her family. Her physical disintegration was gradual but when the end came, it took her quickly. Cindy and her sisters, Belinda Beach & Bonnie Gagnon, both of Kennewick, Washington, have been instrumental in getting the Idaho and Washington govenors to sign Proclamations declaring that September is Gynecologic Cancer Awareness month in their respective states for the past two years. Belinda has also secured several other states during her 2003 efforts. However, with only localized publicity, the word has not spread very quickly. We are creating this web page to help the press, physicians, cancer patients/survivors, and their families find the information they need and to help educate the Pacific Northwest in early detection of gynecologic cancers. Hopefully the links below will help you find the information you need and remember, early detection is the key to curing most gynecologic cancers. Important Links: Gynecologic Cancer Foundation |
