This year I am going to walk for Hadassah, and our goal is raise
money for Women’s Health. Hadassah educates women about heart health, including
that women’s heart attack symptoms are different than men’s symptoms.
Hadassah also researches breast cancer, which is the second
most deadly cancer for women in the United States. Did you know that Ashkenazi
Jewish women have at least a ten times greater prevalence of BRCA1 gene
mutations that cause breast and ovarian cancer?
Hadassah Hospital is doing research on trauma during pregnancy
and childbirth. I have met one of the doctors gathering data and doing research
on this very topic.
I can continue on how much more Hadassah does for women’s
heath, but I am asking you to support my Walk for Women’s Health.
