Raising awareness for G.C.S. Ovarian Cancer

SOUTH BEND, Ind. -- The ABC57 family is mourning the loss of our beloved colleague and friend Jennifer Copeland.

Jennifer passed away last week after a 6-month battle with ovarian cancer. She chose to share her journey publicly, talking about it openly on TV and social media, encouraging all women to trust their own bodies.

Sadly, it turns out Jennifer had a rare and aggressive form of ovarian cancer called G.C.S.

ABC57’s Brian Conybeare had the chance to speak with one of the leading doctors in the country who is working to find a cure for it.
