Good Day all you Beautiful Hedgehogs. As many of you know I am a cancer survivor as many of you are and October is Breast Cancer Awareness month and breast cancer awareness is all about the PINK. Actually, my favorite color… think of it as “lightish RED” ;) I decided 16 years ago, when I was diagnosed on Valentine’s day that I had 1 of 2 choices to make…. I could live with cancer or cancer could live with me… AND I would win. I was paralyzed for a year and really wanted to skydive and land on my feet. So, after some really hard and painful work not only did I get the opportunity to skydive, I landed on my feet and walked away. I have since jumped 20 times. Next on my list was to own a Harley. Her name is ‘Sally’ (because when I took her home Mustang Sally was playing as I rode off) I think we are all survivors, whether we survived cancer, or some other illness or the loss of a friend who wasn’t so fortunate or we have survived something as epic as tragedy, the roller coaster at the amusement park or the parking lot at Wal-Mart… we are champions!

Today is all about the PINK or the lightish RED… post what you‘d like but post it in or with some pink. Post in in honor or memory of a survivor. I truly respect and love you all.
And for your listening pleasure I give you a choice.

Happy Snapping :thumbup: :oops:

My sister, mother and me last Mother's Day, the day she started losing her hair from chemo. My sister did not get the memo to wear pink and we all got matching butterfly jade necklaces

This is a picture of my mother in law who is also a cancer survivor of colon cancer. She is my greatest admirer, and the best mother in law I could ever ask for. She lost all of her hair and it was so cute when it came back in so different than the really high 60's doo she always wore, she now wears a gray wig most of the time and looks adorable in them!

I see some pink on her sleeve.




she was so cold her lips were turning purple

Thanks for sharing GG... my mom was so cute with no hair. At first she got the expensive wig and all but I think wore it twice... When I stayed with her and helped last year I used to rub my cheek on her soft head and purrr :lol:

Annette, your family photo is lovely as well as your other photos. I am a breast cancer survivor and so thankful to be celebrating 10 years of no recurrence. Breast cancer is an epidemic these days with several of my friends recently diagnosed including a 52 year old mother and her 33 year old daughter! Hoping and praying for a cure ~

Here are my 'pink' submissions for today's challenge.
