When the news that she had malignant ovarian cancer hit Margaret, she was lying on a gurney in the recovery room. A surgeon had just removed two large malignant tumors.
After considering her options her first knee-jerk reaction was to follow what the oncologists were recommending, a course of chemotherapy. At first she was seriously afraid and had no information backing up a decision either way. Margaret began a journey that would change not only her life, it would also help thousands of others to make empowering decisions about their own health care.
“I had a very tangible fear, I had a very serious situation that I was facing but that’s behind me now and I was able to work through it by researching and educating myself.”
