Think Pink! Breast Cancer Awareness & Celebrity Fundraisers
Raising awareness with the breast of intentions! Trying to focus on the lighter and brighter side of breast cancer awareness and fundraising - with fun pink products, breast cancer ribbons, pink ribbon jewelry and fashion, with a spotlight on celebrity activists and famous people battling breast cancer. Get the latest news on Hollywood style fundraisers and other fundraising events for a breast cancer cure, that happen year round - not just in October, National Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
Doesn't mean you should forget about breast cancer awareness! Sure, all the special pink events during October go a long way towards raising awareness, but it's really about being aware and proactive each and every day.
Breast Cancer is a year round issue. And we're all part of the solution.

I started this blog (now moved to BreastCancerBracelets.org) because I have a family history of breast cancer. My maternal grandmother (a nurse) was first diagnosed with breast cancer at age 55, her treatment plan included a lumpectomy and radiation therapy, and she went into remission for over 10 years. At age 68, other cancers (including a brain tumor) were discovered, and she died just before her 70th birthday. My mother found a lump at age 47, followed a similar treatment plan, and has now been in remission for 6 years. I am a 31 year old healthy, active woman, but due to the history, have already had mammograms and ultrasounds done on suspect spots. Neither I nor my 24-yr old sister have been tested for the BRCA1 gene, but we both take this matter very seriously, and hope medical advances will continue to improve. I write this blog under M. Beth Parker, a form of my grandmother's maiden name, in her honor.
