October is all about Pink!

{October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month… ALL month long!}

This is a cause very dear to my heart. My Mother lost both breasts and battled breast cancer 27 years ago. It was a long and tough battle but she conquered it! She just turned 84 this month and is definitely a survivor today! Sadly she had to witness her daughter, 1 of my 4 sisters lose the battle with this awful disease several years later. My sister JoAnn was only 42 years old when diagnosed and it was devastating for me to see her experience the disease that took her life about 3 years later.

AWARENESS is so important! My sister had annual exams and her breast cancer came in between those exams. This is why doing self-checks regularly is so important!

You’ve heard it before… Don’t be afraid to touch the ta-ta’s!

It could save your life!

I wanted to share something PINK that will pass along awareness so I am sharing a free  printable. I made it in easy to print 8.5 x 11 size but feel free to print in any size you’d like and use as a reminder to help SPREAD BREAST CANCER AWARENESS. While you are at it, share one with a friend! You may also reference inkhappi to pass this along. Thanks!
