My Aunt Karen was diagnosed with breast cancer probably 12 years ago - maybe in her early 50's. She went through chemo and therapy and is a survivor. She passes out breast self - exam shower cards to all the women in her life. She had lung cancer this spring, but seems to be making an amazing recovery. She also had kidney cancer before breast cancer and survived that too. She's cancer's arch nemesis.
Neat idea Peggy!
Hi Peg! I've got my mammogram scheduled! Went by yesterday and signed the release so they can get my old films sent here. Looks like some great goodies. The friendship pins are cute! I have a question for you about the donating. When I was grocery shopiing yesterday I chose the pink ribbon items over other brands each time. Can I count that as a donation? Maybe if I take a pic and post it on my blog? A certain # of items? :-)Just sayin. {{hugs}}
I blogged about your contest today. Check it out!
