Tigerlily Foundation
Tigerlily Foundation’s mission is to educate, advocate for, empower and support young women before, during and after cancer.
Diagnosed in 2013 and again with a recurrence in 2017, Dee is now NED (No Evidence of Disease) and grateful to be alive.
Living with endometriosis and ovarian cysts, Dee repeatedly shared concerns that she was seeing pink when she urinated—but her symptoms were dismissed and not investigated further. Bladder cancer can happen to young women too, and symptoms are too often mistaken for menstrual, gynecologic, or other conditions.
Dee learned she had cancer while being wheeled into the operating room—unable to communicate, frightened, and unsure of what was happening next.
Today, she is using her voice to advocate for greater awareness, more treatment options, and stronger support for women facing bladder cancer.
Today, Dee advocates for greater awareness, better treatment options, and more support for women impacted by bladder cancer.
“Women’s bodies are different—and women deserve research, care, and support that reflect those differences.”
Together, we can raise awareness, listen to women’s experiences, and help make the future better for those facing bladder cancer.
This is Dee’s legacy.

Looking to add flavor without the salt?
There are plenty of delicious ways to season your food while supporting your health. Try using cancer-fighting spices like turmeric, its active compound, curcumin, is known for reducing inflammation and protecting cells from damage.
You can also boost flavor with garlic, onion powder, lemon juice, vinegar, cumin, paprika, or fresh herbs like basil and cilantro. These options add taste and nutrition, no shaker needed!
