On Tuesday, April 16, 2013, Cecilia Crandall spoke to a very interested group from TOUCH. The members in attendance participated by asking a number of questions and gaining a better knowledge of the signs and symptoms of ovarian cancer. Dorothy Gerr, who is a volunteer leader of this group, remarked, "This has been an extremely informative and helpful presentation and we appreciate the opportunity of benefiting from your insight and experience with this disease."
