    Actor Pierce Brosnan says losing his daughter and first wife to ovarian cancer, is an "indelible part" of his psyche.
     
    He shared his thoughts at the Stand Up to Cancer fundraiser here Friday, reports eonline.com.
     
    Following a true story of an ovarian cancer survivor, the actor began telling his unfortunate experience of losing his first wife Cassandra Harris and daughter Charlotte Brosnan.
     
    He said: "To watch someone you love have his or her life eaten away bit by bit by this insidious disease, that part of your sorrow becomes an indelible part of your psyche.
     
    "So, as a man who's watched the women he loves so much struggle with great pain, I rejoice in Beverly's story. She is alive."
     
    At the event, the former James Bond actor also announced an ovarian cancer dream team by Stand Up to Cancer.
