Teal for a cure

.. September 7th is national WEAR TEAL DAY - sponsored by Ovations for the cure. It's in honor or Ovarian Cancer awareness, research and fundraising.

There is no test for this insidious disease which means it's diagnosed late in 75% of cases.

Symptoms are said to whisper and they include: bloating, pelvic or abdominal pain, difficulty eating for feeling full quickly, frequent or urgent urination. If you experience any of these symptoms daily, for 2-3 weeks, SEE YOUR DOCTOR.

And on SEPTEMBER 16 -CARING TOGETHER will host the annual TEAL RIBBON 5k RUN ND 1 mile walk in Albany's Washington Park.
