I just got Blaylock's book, "Natural Strategies for Cancer Patients." I am furious. There are 23 entries in the index for Breast Cancer, one for Ovarian Cancer and none for Uterine or Endometrial Cancer. We really do need a spokeswoman!

If I recall correctly less than 1% of women get uterine cancer so not much of a market for the pharmaceutical companies or celebraties. I am going to follow Jeanne Bice from Quacker Factory and see if I can contact her associate named "Angel" who works for her on QVC. Jeanne is a firecracker and would be a hugh advocate for our cause....I just know it.
Thanks Bots for the reply. Lori -

Lori,
I don't know what happened here, but if you think it would be helpful to have an additional letter to ask for support, I would be happy to write one.

Well, it seems my post came out all right after all. I am ready to enter the fight to get recognition and research for USPC!

We do need a voice.
Thank you for sharing this subject. I too feel that our cancer appears to be a small fish in a very large sea.
One thing is that I feel that even the Am. Cancer Society does not have a place to designate to donate to a specific cancer. I have stated this in several emails when donating into the "general fund". Other cancers are specifically stated. I suggested to have button to click on and 'write-in' the type to donate too. It makes me feel less of importance than other cancers. -
A voice silenced...
On May 16th I posted that maybe Jeanne Bice from QVC Quaker Factory had just publically announced that she had uterine cancer. I was watching QVC today and was saddened to hear that Jeanne Bice has lost her battle with uterine cancer. QVC website talks about a tribute to Jeanne I think this Friday or Saturday. She was a beautiful and fun loving woman. I know she is now truly and angel.
