It's Gotta be Pink!

Pink is my favorite Color! I thought of putting the Aerosmith lyrics here just cuz I think of that song whenever I say that. However, I had no idea the lyrics were obscene! Oh, dear.
Back to the post.....

Last year when I thought my life could get no more crazier than it already was.... hubby was gone for a year to Korea, I was working full-time at a job that kept me on my toes (tip-toes at times, right, Jonya?), I had 2 kids in college- one away and one at home and a 16 year old daughter whom I thought had gone off the deep end (that is a whole other story), I was trying to get my house ready to sell so we could move (and we didn't know where yet...talk about stress)......when all of that was going on, I went in for a routine mammogram. The next day I got a call saying they wanted me to come back in for an ultrasound because they had found "something". I was so very worried. But, I had a secret weapon and it was time to use it. Prayer. God quickly gave me the strength I needed to get through that stressor as well as all of the other stressors last year brought my way. He gave me that "peace that passes all understanding". Boy, did I need it.
I still have that "something", but it's nothing. It's not growing or moving and who knows what it is, but apparently nothing to worry about. Others have lumps or bumps that are something. I don't know why and can't begin to fathom why. But, there's a reason. And I trust God that someday we'll know the reasons. Until then... there's that color pink. And...


Breast cancer has touched my family. I have a cousin who went through it. Two of my best friends have relatives who have went through and/or are going through the fight. So, as today is October 1, I am joining the hundreds (probably thousands) of blogs and websites going Pink for October. You can click on this link for more information. Help support Breast Cancer Awareness month and GO PINK!

That leads me into my blog candy or as I like to call it... Butterfly Kisses. I am celebrating 10,000 hits on my blog AND I'm doing so on the 1st of October so it's gotta be pink!
Here is what you can win:

A handful of assorted pink primas, a tube of pink glitter, Me & My Big Ideas pink paisley rhinestones, a lot of pink die cuts and punches, Heidi Swapp edge distresser, Vintage pink trim and ric rac, a pink gel pen, a spool of The Paper Studio pink polka dotted ribbon, pink Vibrance pigment ink, 30 pink buttons, pink grosgrain and pink organdy ribbon, and a dozen little gift envelopes tied in pink satin ribbon.
WOW!


All YOU have to do is comment (PLEASE only once!) and tell me
1. who you are
2. where you live and
3. if you've ever been effected by breast cancer (You or a friend/family member).
AND there's one more way to get an extra chance at this pink candy. Make your blog pink for October or display one of the buttons available at Pink for October! Make sure you let me know on your comment!
(IF you don't have a blog~ You can get an extra chance by telling me how many times I mentioned the word PINK in this post. )
I'll choose a winner at random this Saturday, October 6th! And, Please feel free to spread the word about this PINK candy!

Pink Blessings for October~
Angel

Hey Angel, I think I saw 23 "pinks" In there somewhere. My Grandma had breast cancer back in the early 80's. She's still doing awsome and in her 90's today!
I'm Karla from Missouri, (yup, guess who?!) and I do believe you're starting to inspire me to make a card or two. (I haven't dont it yet, just getting inspired!) Love the PINK!

Hi Angel,

I'd be so tickled to win your candy! I keep trying so one of these days it's bound to happen. Whether I ever win or not I LOVE reading your entries and seeing your creations.

1. I'm Cathy
2. I live in rural Southern Minnesota
3. I've not dealt with breast cancer but have been touched by the C word. My mom was recently diagnosed with level 4 lung cancer (no family history or lifestyle that would have indicated such)

I count 23 plus 1 more in the title. It helps that you 'pinked' them out.

You have a wonderful blog. I'm Claudia from Wisconsin and yes, I've had family and friends with breast cancer and I've also gotten one of those call backs from a mammogram. Thank God it was a nothing, my heart goes out to those with a something.
I counted 23 also.

- And I have been touched by breast cancer too many times! My great-grandmother (father's side) had it twice, my mother, my cousin (passed away from it), my mother-in-law, lady I work with, and a guy I work with's wife. Here's praying they find a cure soon!

lois lane said...

Hi,
My name is Lois and I'm from Parkersburg, WV. I had a friend die from breast cancer and my sister-in-laws mother had breast cancer. Unfortunately hers spread to her spine, hip and leg. But she was diagnosed years ago with breast cancer. She is a very strong lady and never complains. I admire that about her!! I am not sure I would be that brave.
Thank you for sharing your story. It was very up-lifting. Thank God for the power of prayer!!

Hi Angel. I'm Tracy, a misplaced Texan living in New York.
I had a aunt-in-law that lost both breasts to breast cancer 10 years apart. She was the sweetest lady, even though her body was eventually so racked with cancer she returned to her everlasting body with God. (I miss you Aunt Kerlin!)

Deborah said...

Hi Angel, great cause for your 10,ooo celebration! I am adding the emblem and making my blog pink too! I need my glasses, but I thought including the title I saw 25 pinks! Probably off a few...LOL!

My sister has been cancer free (breast cancer) for 20 years!

Most important to get those mammies yearly! Thanks! Deb

Linda SS said...

I counted 25 the word pink 25 times in the post. The Power of Prayer!!! I'm soooo happy to hear that your "something" is not cancer:)

I'm Linda from Washington State. Breast cancer has touched many of my friends and relatives. Cancer has touched my own life as well, but not in my breasts. I have stage 4 colon/liver cancer. In addition to yearly mammograms, I encourage anyone who has had someone in your family with colon cancer, PLEASE have a colonoscopy by age 35...it develops much earlier in a 2nd generation than it did in the previous one and catching it early or in the polyp stage is the key to survival. I pray that I can prevent others from developing this disease.

Kathi said...

My name is Kathi, I live in Western NY and yew, breast cancer has touched my life. My very sweet mother in law has not only battled breast cancer but ovarian cancer as well. Not once has she ever been depressed or angry. This ordeal has only made her shine brighter. Through all the treatments and doctor visits she's braved them all with patience and smiles. I thank God she brought this very special lady into my life! Love ya 'Ma'!

I had a maternal aunt who had both breasts removed and a sister in law who had a lumpectomy because of breast cancer. It's a terrible disease and as women we MUST work together to eradicate it. Pink blessings to everyone. GET THOSE MAMMOS!

Sara said...

They saw that we all know someone who has been touched by Breast Cancer, a coworker of mine has survived and the number one reason people survive is GOD! So glad to hear that you are doing well and that God is your source for strength and purpose. I will be going pink for October with one of the buttons. Thanks for the opp!

Hi Angel!
I'm Amber from Texas (living in central NY). I've known many people who've won and lost battles with all types of cancer. I've seen the scars from surgery, and I've witnessed the pain. I pray for all those struggling and surviving right now. God's here.
Let's all go PINK to raise awareness!

I counted a total of 28 listed on your blog today(some on the side).
I have two aunts who lost breasts due to cancer. I had a close scare but it was nothing. I did just get an email from my dear friend just today...who told me about her second breast biopsy reveled she had cancer in one of the 3 nodes they checked. She is waiting for further information on treatment now. She just lost the first breast. It is soooo scarey and needs the attention everyone is giving. If I had a blog (i don't) I would turn it pink!

Hi, I enjoy your blog.
I have been affected deeply by breast cancer. My mom had a breat removed at age 65. That was 15 years ago. She had 2 sisters with a breast removed. I have one sister in law with one breast removed. I have 4 first cousins with both breasts removed. I have a lump that we are watching. My oldest sister has a lump they are watching. and my baby sister had a lump removed at age 17, she is now 45. We are blessed that no one has died from the breast cancer but my dad died of bone cancer at age 61. Still I want to say God is good and he continues to bless me everyday.

My oldest sister was diagnosed with breast cancer six years ago. She fought back and at her five year milestone she was rediagnosed! She's cancer free now for one year and we're praying that it continues! God bless all those who have gone through it or who are currently fighting it! :)

Are we supposed to count the pinks? I counted 25!

Cheryl said...

I think I would be shocked if I met someone who hasn't been affected in some way by breast cancer, hitting a little closer to home is that my DH has leukemia. We support all out there affected by any cancer, because the chalenges and fears are still the same.

Thank you for the sentiment and the great blog candy - My Mom has been fighting breast cancer for four years now - but boy is she ever strong!!!

Off to turn my blog pink!

Natalie said...

My name is Natalie. I live in Surprise, AZ. I'm so inspired by your blog! It's just awesome! I've had a couple women in my family have lumps that ended up being benign. But a woman who's daughter is one of my best friends, and who, in a sense, helped raise me was diagnosed a couple of years ago. She was cancer-free until about a month ago, something was found. We're still waiting for further testing to find out if that something was actually something or nothing. It's been agony waiting; this woman is like another mother to me. Best wishes to you!

Natalie said...

Oh! I have a blog, but I just wanted to participate! Counting every time I saw "pink" in this post... 24. :D

Okay, I counted 23 pinks....which is kind of ironic, since my birthday is on the 23rd of June!! I live in Nebraska, born and raised. And I too, have a friend battling an aggressive form of breast cancer. Godspeed to all....

Hi! I'm Linda F (celtictrek) from Ohio. I am a 16 year survivor of breast cancer. My mother died of cancer when I was 20. She was 49, so one of my greatest days was when I celebrated my 50th! I had beat it then as far as I was concerned. I'll be 60 this year, so I'm still going strong! I've added a badge to my blog (www.ramblingsofanoldlady.blogspot.com)to show my support!
Thanks for you great blog, Angel! And I'm so glad to hear that your "something" is "nothing" right now!

One of my best friends had both breasts removed and is a surviver:) I've lost a few elderly relatives to the disease. But the one that upset me the most was my sister's best friend, Jennifer, who lost her battle at age 30. She was smart, pretty, & the sweetest girl you could ever meet. Her husband walked out on her when she got the disease, saying he couldn't deal with "a one-breasted freak". Thankfully, she had loving parents and my sister who stood by her until the end. We will never fully recover from our loss.

Hi, Angel -- You always have interesting blog entries and candy. Thanks for helping bring attention to breast cancer, not just this month but every month.

I'm Rebecca and I'm from Oregon. I was diagnosed with breast cancer in October 1998; my mother was diagnosed with breast cancer in October 2000; and my sister was diagnosed with breast cancer in October 2001. There was no prior history in our family, so go figure.... All 3 of us were diagnosed via mammograms. Mine was so small that it looked like grains of salt within the diameter of a pencil eraser tip. PLEASE--if you can't afford a mammogram, check to see if there are programs in your area that offer them for free or reduced fees. There are many organizations raising money just for that. Thanks for letting me play along and for letting me use your space as a forum for something that is near, not so dear, but very prevalent in my family, friends, and the world. Don't forget that men get it, too. Mammograms save lives!!!

I don't have a blog, but I am writing all my e-mails in pink this month, along with adding a pink breast cancer awareness ribbon to it. I count 25 "Pinks" in the post, including the title, the sticker, and the 2 links to Pink for October.

Debbie Fisher (debbiedee) said...

I am Debbie from central NE and just put a pink ribbon on my blog. I have been affected by breast cancer thru family and friends. The first being my grandma 10 yrs ago (she died of a massive stroke a few weeks ago). Grandma was a survivor and my hero.
