JUDY’S MISSION+SPB4OVC
On the eve of World Ovarian Cancer Day, Thursday, May 7, two Houstonbased ovarian cancer foundations, JUDY’S MISSION and SPB4OVC, are co-hosting
the screening of No Evidence of Disease. The award-winning documentary follows a not-so-typical rock band made up of six GYN surgeons passionate about
music and outraged by the wall of silence and underfunding surrounding these
types of women’s cancers. The goal of N.E.D. is to push below the belt cancers
into the same limelight as breast cancer. Both the local foundations were founded in honor of their namesakes. Judy’s Mission was founded in 2010 in honor
of Judith Liebenthal Robinson, PhD, a NASA scientist who despite a healthy
lifestyle was diagnosed with advanced ovarian cancer and passed away within
a year.
Tickets are $20. For information and to purchase tickets, go to:
