I was diagnosed with ovarian cancer in May 2022. It was the exceptional care of my Yale/Smilow medical team led by Dr. Elena Ratner, along with research conducted by Discovery to Cure, which saved my life!

Dr. Ratner & her research team work tirelessly to find new treatments and one day a cure for this tricky disease which sneaks its way around treatment and too often reoccurs.

This year I am happy have Joan, Debbie, Barbara, Melissa and Donna, additional cancer survivors, walking with us!

Please help us raise funds for this important, underfunded research which saves women's lives by joining or sponsoring our team: Audra’s Allies as we walk in the Beverly Levy Walk on May 3, 2026. We join hundreds of women, families, friends and our health care providers to raise crucial funds for Discovery to Cure. 

From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU for your support.
