Elly Mayday, a professional model and advocate for ovarian cancer awareness, died Friday at the age of 30.
She learned in early 2017 that her cancer had returned. She was living in New York, pursuing her modelling career. She said too many women “shy away due to the physical changes they experience during treatment — and even throughout life. Confidence is the most beautiful thing in the world and I wanted to show that it can still be yours through cancer.”
“She was such an inspiring, young, beautiful woman to listen to, and just had some really good messages,” added Gosselin. “This is a disease where the signs and symptoms are often quite generic and sometimes confused with those of other less serious illnesses.” There are no screening tests or early detection tests, so the disease is often diagnosed in later stages, through a combination of a CA125 blood test, an internal ultrasound and a vaginal exam. It is often diagnosed through surgery, Gosselin added.
The writer states 'her cancer returned' It wasn't HER cancer. No one owns a cancer. Wish the writer learns from this reference...
