Hello Everyone - Please join the Walk of Hope event in your area this weekend! It is a fantastic opportunity to connect with a local support group and meet others impacted by ovarian cancer. There are sure to be many hugs and high 5's to those in the Teal T-Shirts! Don't worry if you are not part of a team, everyone is welcome and no one is ever alone there! This can be the space to share your walk day experience and photos. Wishing you all a fantastic day. Thank you to our sponsors and supporters.

I'm so excited for my first "Walk" tomorrow. I have a fantastic support group that are also my co-workers. I'm so blessed to have these people encouraging me and coming with me tomorrow. I would say the majority of my fundraising money came from co-workers. I am also excited to meet other women like me, who had or have ovarian cancer. They know what I went through. We have a connection because of our diagnosis. See everyone tomorrow.2

Gorgeous day!5 -
Being in the company of these survivors brought more emotions than I could comprehend or express. Even though many of us had never met before, the fact that we had this shared experience brought an instant bond I've never felt before. 6 -
Fantastic photos everyone - it was a wonderful emotional inspiring day!1

The walk in Calgary is held in North Glenmore Park, which is very close to where I live. I walked for the fifth time this year and I’m extremely proud to be one of the teal shirted survivors. Here’s a photograph of me with my mom at the 2017 Walk of Hope, my brother was also a member of my team Road to Remission.

@irishsurvivor - it almost worked out that I was going to be at your walk instead of my local walk this year, maybe next year... my family all lives out in the Oro/Medonte area

The event location and organization was wonderful. Everyone that I have had interaction with at OCC are all wonderful.Thought I would share a picture of my team,
