Angel Greta's 4th Annual BCA Button Giveaway!

Hi Friends - Angel Greta here!

In 2013 Mom & I had a special button giveaway for

 Breast Cancer Awareness Month

Despite my unexpected departure for the Rainbow Bridge in 2014 

we have continued our giveaway each year with great success

This year is extra special because 
 Mom is celebrating 5 yrs as a Breast Cancer Survivor.

 I came into Mom's life just a few months 
after she completed her radiation treatments

 and I was an important part of her overall recovery. 

so once again we want to share with you the story of .....

How I Became Mom's "Pink" Dog

by Angel Greta

Mom has never like the color PINK

her favorite colors are green and purple

but.....

you may have noticed that

I wear a lot of PINK

Two Three Four  Five years ago something happened

 

After having her yearly check up
Mom was told she needed a biopsy

Two days before the start
of Breast Cancer Awareness month

Mom was told she had breast cancer

Then not only did she not like PINK

she hated PINK!

Trying to come to terms with the Big C diagnoses

and PINK was in her face everywhere she went

Surgery was scheduled followed soon after 
by 6 weeks of radiation

It was then that Mom began to realize
just how lucky she was

She does her wellness check ups every year

so her cancer was caught early

She has a family that loves her and needs her

and she will be here for them

for a long time to come

Mom realized that during

Breast Cancer Awareness Month

she can let people know that 

early detection saves lives

so she decided

to embrace the color "PINK"

and that, my friends

is how I became Mom's "PINK" dog.

Dear Furiends!

please make sure your loved ones
educate themselves about the risks of breast cancer
and the importance of self exams and mammograms if they are over 40,
earlier if there is a history of breast cancer in the family

Early detection can make such a difference !
