Sometimes, the information we hear at just the right moment can make all the difference. 🩵

At our 2026 Gala, Deborah Flournoy of Weil, Gotshal & Manges LLP shared her personal health journey and how a Tina’s Wish educational program changed the way she thought about her symptoms.

Her story is a powerful reminder of why gynecologic health education matters and why we remain committed to helping women better understand their bodies and advocate for their health.

Thank you, Deborah, for sharing your story and reminding us of the impact of this work. by @tinaswish

R.J. Gilson thinks about his wife every day. Angie Gilson died on Sept. 15, 2024, after a nearly two-year battle with Stage 4 ovarian cancer.

It's a story that Dr. Chelsea Salyer sees repeatedly as a gynecologic oncologist at VCU's Massey Cancer Center. Unlike cervical, breast, colon, and lung cancers, there is currently no way to screen for ovarian cancer.

Now, R.J. is channeling his grief into action — raising money for a nonprofit devoted to funding research into the prevention and early detection of ovarian cancer.

Allison was diagnosed with ovarian cancer in October 2022. With her husband, family, and friends by her side, including her grandson Chase, she faced treatment with tremendous optimism and courage, grateful to the doctors and nurses who cared for her every step of the way.

Now in remission, Allison shares her story to remind others that a positive mindset can be a powerful part of healing. In June, she and Chase walked the Runway together at our Runway for Research event.

Thank you, Allison, for sharing your story, and to Chase, for sharing your grandmother with us!
