Sustaining Donor supports Women’s College 24/7
Rosa Cordiano has a vested interest in osteoporosis research: she lives with the condition every day. Diagnosed in her mid 30s, she couldn’t find the help she needed until she came to Women’s College Hospital in 1997. “Finally, I was listened to,” she says. “The approach at Women’s College Hospital was totally different, more humane. They treat me as an individual, not as a number.”
Rosa knows first hand the importance of the osteoporosis research being conducted at the Women’s College Research Institute. She is participating in trials of various drugs being used to treat the condition – and it’s working. Through nutritional support and an exercise regime, in addition to the drug therapy, her bone density has almost returned to normal levels.
Rosa is happy to support Osteoporosis Research at Women’s College Hospital through regular monthly donations. In addition to benefiting directly, she feels she is helping future generations. “Women’s College helped
my future,” says Rosa. “It’s important to support research that is being done about women, for women. And for me, monthly donations are easier.”
Rosa’s monthly contributions reflect her gratitude for her personal experiences as a patient: “At Women’s College Hospital, women feel welcome and well looked after.”
Thank you, Rosa, for making a difference to the lives of others, every month.
