How I Became Mom's "Pink" Dog
by Angel Greta
Mom has NEVER liked the color PINK
her favorite colors are green and purple
but...
you may have noticed that I
you may have noticed that I
wore a lot of PINK
Eight years ago something happened
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 and followed soon after
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
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.
