Flowers Fighting Breast Cancer
We all know that October is Breast Cancer Awareness month, I even have a button in my side bar you can click to help fund free mammograms. It’s interesting to see how many companies have gone pink. I hope they continue to build awareness even after October, this is such an important issue.
My girlfriend phoned me the other day with some good news in her own fight against breast cancer. She began her initial fight against this disease six years ago and last year, it came back with a vengeance. She had brain surgery to remove lesions one year ago and has gone through numerous chemo and radiation treatments. At one point she was told by doctors that there was nothing more that could be done for her. She never gave up and she kept a positive attitude.
Her positive thinking and many prayers by friends and family around the world are paying off. She called to tell me that her latest test results show the remaining lesions are getting smaller and she is now in what is considered to be partial remission. She was so happy I could see her dancing in her kitchen as she was talking to me. I just wanted to reach through the phone and give her a huge hug.
Since she lives near Chicago and I now live near Dallas, I can’t give her a hug, but I’m thinking of sending flowers to brighten her day even more. I found a wonderful bouquet of pink and white tulips. In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness month, 10% of the purchase price will go to Komen For The Cure. I think a [tag]flower delivery[/tag] of this nature is a great way to honor all those women, including my friend, who are fighting this battle.
