Thanks to Patricia Hamilton and her team. It was great to have the opportunity to share our GYN Health knowledge and to listen to some of the devastating stories especially young women enduring Polycystic ovaries and Endometriosis and many searching for answers and suffering in silence. This only re-iterates the prime need for the International Gynaecological Awareness Day celebrations to not only give voice to these women, create a greater community education and support and most of all greater funding and research. I encourage you to plan your event and help promote your business though the Gynae Awareness day 2018
I was honoured to be invited as a judge for the best Moulin Rouge themed decorated Ward for the International Gynaecological Awareness Day. It is great to see KEMH celebrating for the fifth year to help share the knowledge and support the millions of Women with GYN health issues in the world.

International Gynaecological Awareness Day 2017 event at King Edward Memorial Hospital:
A wonderful display at King Edward Memorial Hospital for women in Western Australia where I was invited to be one of the judges. Just imagine how it would feel for the women undergoing GYN health surgery to see the fun displays to help them heal better.
Great to see GAIN Inc. and Perth Sisterhood Support group collaborating with a display in foyer of the Hospital.
I had the privilege of donating quilts and wall hangings kindly created by WA Quilters Assoc.
I also, want to highly commend the artist from the Genetics department who created this magnificent poster.

It was with great excitement and a little bit of trepidation, that I approached the opportunity to present to 100 15 year old girls on the subject of Sexual Health.
Even though I am a Life Member of the WA Sexology Association, presenting to 15 year old girls is a completely different concept.
To my surprise and delight, I got great feedback and the girl’s expressed an interest in knowing more about my life experience. Sadly, time did not prevail.
I was green with envy to know that these 15 year old girls were given the opportunity to have this up front knowledge about the emotional and physical effects and how empowered they must be to go out into the wide world.
If only we could be more open in society for all women to be forewarned about risks and symptoms and life changing issues that may develop in their future life.
