Welcome to the website of the Dallas-Fort Worth Ovarian Cancer Group. We are a group
of ovarian cancer survivors, family members, friends....anyone who is interested in helping
to Make A Difference in the fight against ovarian cancer. We are not a non-profit or support
group but rather simply a group of volunteers who provide support to one another, many of
whom volunteer with other ovarian cancer organizations and thereby help bring information
to others within our group. Our site
is designed to provide you information relating to ovarian cancer. None of the information
provided is meant to replace or in any one be construed as medical advice and is simply
provided on an informational and unofficial basis only.
Although ovarian cancer is a relatively rare disease, it touches many lives - husbands, children, parents,
brothers, sisters, friends. Unfortunately, due to its subtle symptoms and rarity, most women know little or
nothing about ovarian cancer. Whether you already have ovarian cancer, know someone who does, or have been fortunate thus far to not be touched by this disease, knowledge about the disease is a powerful tool for you. We encourage all women to learn about this disease, and to tell their friends and family and co-workers.
Due to the almost silent nature of its symptoms, it is said that ovarian cancer whispers. This makes it all the more important for all of us to know what to listen for and how to listen.
Our site is constantly evolving and we welcome input from you as to ways we can further improve our site.
