The facts:  Ovarian cancer is the fifth most common cancer in women in the .  Awareness of the disease and its symptoms is low but there is growing evidence that suggests that greater awareness could save lives.  If diagnosed early, treatment can be very successful.

Please support me:  Please help me support Ovarian Cancer Action in raising vital awareness by sponsoring me to run the London Marathon on 25 April 2010.  I am hugely excited (but also very nervous) to be running, and so your donations, no matter how small, will provide me with a big reason to keep going!  Please dig deep!
