On November 3, 2019 we will be running the NYC Marathon with Team Teal to fundraise for the National Ovarian Cancer Coalition (NOCC) and for our mom.

She was diagnosed with ovarian cancer in January 2016. She fought like a champion for the next 22 months until she passed in November 2017. She fought for all of us and now it is our turn to continue to fight for her.

We are supporting the National Ovarian Cancer Coalition’s mission to spread awareness and understanding of early signs and symptoms so that every woman gets the chance for a fair fight. My mom didn’t know she had anything to fight until it was already too late. But, despite the head start that the cancer had, she never backed down. We wish her strength could be bottled and shared with every woman facing the same challenge, but in the meantime, we will do all that we can to support the mission of the NOCC.
