Gynae Cancer Month Walk for Ovarian Cancer

Getting active to raise funds for ovarian cancer

Nationwide

Where ever you live in New Zealand - I challenge you to join my team and walk 10km for ovarian cancer. Click the "Join Team" button to get involved.

As many of you know, I was diagnosed in 2017 and told I'd likely have five to fifteen years left to live. Not the news you want to hear at 32 years old.

I'm lucky my treatment continues to work well - this year I was able to tramp the Milford Track and Rees Dart. I take a daily cancer pill and have an injection every twelve weeks. Every six months I have a scan to see if my cancer has spread. Throughout this I keep all my fingers and toes crossed, fundraise and pray for a research breakthrough that will help me live a long life.

Simply put, women with ovarian cancer need your help. 9 out of 10 people with breast or prostate cancer survive at least 5 years. Just 4 out of 10 women with ovarian cancer do.

The funds you raise will go to awareness, advocacy and research to improve their survival.

Thanks for your support!

- Jane

I met Jane and her mum on the Heaphy Track. Jane is a courageous selfless young lady who deserves a better hand in life. Never the less she pushes on to get better research that will help others in the future. I was in awe of this very special young person.
