Breast Cancer Jewelry from the Shane Company

I don't know how I missed the launch of this program from ShaneCo.com - because we're loyal customers to ShaneCo - we were in the store the other day, and I spotted this new collection. Now, I'm a sucker for pink sapphires, but these pins and pendants are gorgeous- simple and sparkle-y at the same time! At prices ranging from $150-$560, I think I may get my mom (breast cancer survivor) one of them as a special gift.

Unlike some breast cancer jewelry, you can trust you're getting top quality white gold, yellow gold, and pink sapphires from ShaneCo. - Thanks to mr. Tom Shane for suppporting the cause!

Breast Cancer Pendants & Pins - Gold & Sapphires Through June '08 - 50% of the retail sale from each Pink Ribbon Pin or Pendant will be donated to Susan G. Komen for the Cure, a minimum donation of $30,000.

About the Pink Ribbon Blog:

: Name: M. Beth Parker

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.
