Early Detection

TEAM BELIEVE

Team Believe is ten years old and has gathered many members over the past years. Team believe has walked 100’s of miles in PINK walks, quarter marathons and has also auctioned off paintings and raffled quilts. It has been my honor to be part of TEAM BELIEVE.

I am alone this year in TEAM BELIEVE, but Larry is by my side…and look what he got for me.

He had my design made into a 2022 baseball shirt. I have it on today and plan to wear it to all of my oncology appointments this month.

Please schedule your mammogram? AND if you have any questions or need support of any kind, please contact me? Email me at………[email protected]

Many, many TV stations show mammograms and how easy they are….they never show what it is like to get bad news from your mammogram. I know what that is like and I am here if you have questions, need support or names of my favorite DRs.

Early detection can save your life.

Love you beyond the moon.

*Breast cancer fact : 62% of breast cancer cases are diagnosed at a localized stage, for which the 5-year survival rate is 99%. This is where my breast cancer fits in. I was stage one prior to surgery. During surgery they discovered that the tumor was much larger. I then became stage two in a matter of moments. Early detection is life saving.

Yesterday, Pink and Paddington went with Larry and I to the fabric store. I am making a Halloween costume. What I have planned needs blue and red fabric. Bet you cannot guess.

You can guess, but just don’t guess out loud. The little Paddington in the photo is from Paddington Station in London. His pearls are from Poip’u Kaua’i. Pink was given to me and it was a special gift. They are my treasures.

There is a Christmas gift in progress, on the floor of my work room, it is almost finished. When it is complete, I will start to make my Halloween costume and then I have one more Christmas gift to finish before November. My goal: To finish all hand work before going away on holiday. HOLIDAY!!!

My back has been hurting and I feel like I have taken on to much. Making two huge Christmas gifts this year and there are 85 days till Christmas! It seems so far, but it will be here sooner than we imagine.

The sun is streaming into the room. It is 80 degrees outside. Already I have a little fan blowing on me as I work at the sewing machine. It is an interesting morning. I feel tired but inspired, with a get things done attitude.

I wish you a happy day. Please fill it with all of the things you love. That way, if something unexpected happens, you will be surrounded by love.

Love you beyond PINK RIBBONS.

Me.

Good morning dear ones.

My Larry has declared this an anniversary.

Last year, on this date, I was 5 years cancer free.

I have been informed that now the celebrations REALLY  start.

{Larry is so amazing}

Six years ago, my tumor was removed…

and

I have stayed breast cancer free since that day.

 My breast cancer was discovered, because a friend had been diagnosed.

It was in her honor, that I had a random mammogram.

It is that mammogram, that i had “by chance”

that we found  my tumor.

Now, I need you to do me a favor. Please.

If you have not had a screening this year, please go?

Remind your friends, women and men.

Early detection saved my life.

It saved my life.

Love you.
