Happy Halloween! There are lots of scary things out there for Halloween, such as ghosts, witches, goblins, vampires, etc. But those aren’t real and they’re gone after today. However, there are some real-life events that are extremely frightening and don’t have a specific end date. I can’t imagine anything scarier than hearing the words “You have Cancer”!

For women diagnosed with breast, ovarian and other gynecologic cancers, there is an organization to help make this time a little less scary and overwhelming. Support Connection provides free services to women and their families affected by those cancers. All their counselors are cancer survivors themselves which puts them in the best position to guide women through a very difficult time. It’s comforting to know there are others out there who are going through or have gone through the same thing.

We lost my sister Mary to breast cancer 20 years ago and my sister Maureen is undergoing breast cancer treatment for the second time so I know the toll a cancer diagnosis takes on the patient and their loved ones. I’ve been a volunteer for Support Connection for 10 years now and joined their board of directors in 2022. I see the positive impact they have on so many people.
