New Diagnosis

You do not have to walk this path alone!

Receiving a diagnosis of ovarian cancer is just the beginning of a very personal and unique journey for you and your loved ones. This path can be scary at times, and will likely present a variety of emotional and physical challenges.

The South Carolina Ovarian Cancer Foundation (SCOCF) is here to support you and your family throughout the course of your disease. Many of us have walked the same path. We are here to provide you with information, compassion and encouragement.

After being diagnosed with ovarian cancer, you probably will feel uncertain and have many questions about the disease. How will it affect my body and my life? What’s the best plan of action to manage the disease? What treatment side effects will I experience?

Please contact us if you have been recently diagnosed to learn more about the resources we provide. Call 864-373-6306 or email us at info@scovariancancer.org.

Bag of Hope for Patients in Treatment

The South Carolina Ovarian Cancer Foundation is happy to provide a Bag of Hope to help newly diagnosed ovarian cancer patients in South Carolina. Whenever possible, the Bag of Hope will be delivered by a local ovarian cancer survivor who can share information with you on resources to help you with your recovery. She will show you how the items in the bag will be helpful during your treatment and beyond.
