Ovarian Cancer Statistics

250K of women worldwide are diagnosed each year.

In Australia, 4 women are diagnosed EACH DAY. 3 Australian women will die EACH DAY.

Ovarian Cancer is the most deadly of all women’s cancers.

The treatment has not changed in 30years and there is NO diagnostic test.

As Liz found out here are a couple of things we could do that just might save our lives: first a simple blood test [ CA125 ] once a year where an elevated blood test would have your Doctor look further. And secondly, have a Transvaginal Ultrasound every 2 years, although this is not a 100% guarantee both tests are the only early markers available.

Symptoms may include: Abdomina or pelvic pain, Increased abdominal size or persistent abdominal bloating. The need to urinate often and urgently and Feeling full after eating a small amount.

Risk factors:

Family history of ovarian, breast or Bowel Cancer.
Aged over 50
Having endometriosis
Using hormone replacement therapy
Previously having had breast or bowel cancer
Smoking or obesity
Never having children or having them later in life
Having genetic mutations in the BRCA1 or BRCA2 genes

Please make every woman you know aware.

We apologise. The following event is now cancelled. Liz’s husband Jeff has injured himself and Liz is quite ill at the moment and  does not feel up to it

3/10/17

 

————————————–

Come and Join Liz at her Brunch – drop in anytime between 10am & 1pm on Wednesday 25th October 2017

Liz is now halfway through her chemo and has completed her surgery. She has decided that with the help of a couple of friends she will open her house for a morning tea from approximately 10am -1pm on Wednesday 25th October. Everyone is welcome to come along have a bite to eat and a chinwag. Liz is happy to answer any questions and she is keen for some visitors.
 
This is really not a fundraiser, though you can pop $1 or $2 in the donation bowl. It is really a thank you to friends, supporters and a catch up with locals. If you haven’t met Liz before come and meet her she is a wonderfully positive person. Renee Winslade is the organizer with Liz so if you have any questions feel free to ask or you can message Liz’s page and we will get back to you.

Event Closed – Successful – Friday 14th July 2017 – Wangi RSL Shave for Elizabeth Anne Wright – Ovarian Cancer

Original Event Text below – Event now finished – Raised $8208.00. For final
event results
& shout outs see the Wangi RSL event final results page.

In the past month, Liz (a local Wangi resident) has been diagnosed with Stage 4 Ovarian Cancer with a 5% Cure Rate. Liz was not detected early and was diagnosed with a different kind of cancer early in the year. She is passionate about communicating to women the tests she had, that finally led to a correct diagnosis. While not a guarantee, there are two (2) tests you can do that shows markers of Ovarian Cancer which can point doctors in the right direction to undergo further enquiry because there are no early screening tests currently available.

 
She is fundraising for the cause and is shaving her head on Friday 14th of this month (July 2017) at the Wangi RSL Club from approx 5 pm to around 7.30/8.00pm in between the raffles and any other events. Steve from the Wangi Barber Shop is kindly doing the shave and is willing to do other head or beard shaves for a donation of any amount. Liz will have her head shaved approx 6.30-7pm. Awareness information will also be provided and the Wangi RSL will run an additional raffle on the night with prizes if they can source some prize donations.
 
Liz commenced chemotherapy on Monday this week (3/7/17) and was told that she will start losing her hair within 2 weeks. She wants to do the head shave and take her hair under her own terms and not have the chemo do it. So apologies for the short notice. Any participation is greatly appreciated and welcomed.
 
We aim to make it a fun event despite that it is a horrid disease. Liz is a lovely, positive woman who enjoys a Friday night dance at the Wangi RSL so we won’t detract from the great Friday nights at the club but rather add something positive.
To support Liz, her shave and Ovarian Cancer you can donate before the event, or on the night of the event by visiting the: Wangi Wangi RSL Shave – Ovarian Cancer Donations Page. This page lists the event and a progress bar as donations are received. If you can’t donate thats OK, Liz would love you to spread the word around and simply make women in your life aware of the tests. You can read my brief story for more information.

Supporters and their contributions & contact details are listed on the supporters page and any tax deductible donations will be listed as indicated on the donators page.
