Welcome to our New Blog!

Dear SunflowerSisters, family and friends: Welcome to our newly created ovarian cancer blog! There are so many breaking news items, issues of common concern and helpful hints that we'd like to share with you in a more up-to-the-minute format. We'd also really appreciate hearing from you about what's on your mind - and of course, if we can, try to help. Everything is strictly confidential - no names are shared, no information or addresses used or sold.

Today's headlines include the results of a study on the long-term use of talcum powder in the genital area and the increased risk of ovarian cancer - 30% increase - check out this article -http://www.preventcancer.com/consumers/cosmetics/talc.htm What do you think - should all talcum powder manufacturers be subject to government regulation or at the minimum, labelling as to the grade?
