When she first received the surgery, one of her main concerns was when she could be able to run again. She was sent home to heal before returning for chemotherapy(化疗). “I came home, and never thought about cancer,” she said. “I thought I’d just had surgery and needed to heal. It wasn’t until I went back and entered the chemotherapy room with my son that I really understood it was cancer. Then I really broke down.”

　　During and after treatment she ran whenever she could. She even participated in races — although she sometimes had to run slower than she once did. Eleven months after she was diagnosed with cancer she was feeling well. She had just started a new job before she was diagnosed again.

　　When she first developed ovarian cancer, her symptoms had been back pain and lack of energy. This time, the only signs were high levels of ovarian cancer markers in her blood. “I went back to my doctor in tears, but apparently it is pretty common,” she said. Fifty per cent of women with early stage ovarian cancer will have a recurrence (复发) of it, and the rate goes up for women in the later stages.

　　The Bermuda Cancer and Health Centre is recognizing September as Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month. Wynn hopes it will help more women learn the symptoms and risk factors.

　　“The symptoms are often masked and a lot of women don’t know that if they have a close family member who had breast cancer, theft are at the risk of ovarian cancer,” she said. “I had two sisters who had breast cancer. Every year I went for pap smears. A pap smear only shows up cervical cancer(宫颈癌), it doesn’t show ovarian cancer. We think we are doing all the right tests. Women should know if they have a history of breast cancer, they should have a regular internal ultrasound as well, in addition to a pap smear.”
