Are women like apples?
Women are like apples on trees. The best ones are at the top of the tree. The
men don't want to reach for the
good ones because they are afraid of failing and getting hurt.
Instead, they just get the rotten apples from the
ground that aren't as good, but easy. So the apples at the top
think something is wrong with them, when in
reality, THEY'RE amazing. They just have to wait for the right man
to come along, the one that's brave
enough to climb all the way to the top of the tree. Remember, YOU
are a good apple!
Share this with other women who are good apples, even those who have already
been picked.

Ovarian Cancer
About 1 in every 57 women in the United States
will develop ovarian cancer. Most cases occur in
women over the age of 50, but this disease can
also affect younger women. Ovarian cancer causes
more deaths than any other cancer of the female
reproductive system. The sooner ovarian cancer
is found and treated, the better a woman's
chance for recovery. But ovarian cancer is hard
to detect early. Many times, women with ovarian
cancer have no symptoms or just mild symptoms
until the disease is in an advanced stage.
Scientists are studying ways to detect ovarian
cancer before symptoms develop.
September is Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month.
