Hello family, friends and people who randomly stumbled upon this blog.
So many people have asked me what they can do for me and to please let them know what I need. Well, I thought of something that everyone can do to really make a statement.
I am asking everyone to wear PINK on Thursday, March 7 (my first day of chemo). Then, email, text or Facebook pictures of yourself to me (my mom, my husband) in all your pink glory. As I receive them throughout my treatment I will be reminded of all the people out there who support me. We need to make a statement to let people know that more and more women under the age of 40, even 30 are being diagnosed with breast cancer. Together we can spread the word that breast cancer is not JUST an older woman's disease!
UPDATE:
If you are on Facebook you can post your pictures here:

ReplyDeleteHey Caity,
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry you're going through this, and hope that everything goes as smoothly as possible so that you can return to your wonderful, 'normal', working body and be the best you that you can be as soon as possible. In the meantime, keep your spirit up and keep sharing your experience- I'm sure somebody will benefit from it, and the biggest beneficiary of your writing might just be you (not a bad thing). Thinking of you and planning to wear pink on the 7th. Take care!
Somewhere on some part of my body I rock a little pink for you everyday. You are inspirational to me and I love you!
ReplyDeleteHope you're doing well today. I'm praying for you. Let me know whatever you need.
