In 1999 I was diagnosed with ductal carcinoma in situ following many tests plus a lumpectomy. Since that time, I've found it difficult to consider myself a breast cancer survivor. I've known many women who lost their breasts or their lives to breast cancer, so I didn't feel my own experience qualified me as a member of the club no woman wants to belong to. Then a year and a half ago there was another "suspicious area" in my other breast, and I was reminded of the need for (a) solid education, (b) regular screenings for every woman, (c) money for research, and (d) a national standard of care regarding breast cancer and breast issues. My second tumor turned out to be benign, thankfully! At the age of 38, I had no family history of breast cancer and no risk factors. Therefore, I'm eternally grateful to Amazon and others who are dedicated to donating proceeds to the further study of this disease. As for this bracelet, it's solid, substantial, feminine, very well made and a pleasure to wear. I have small wrists, and it's a perfect size. Please consider a purchase of this piece as a gift or reminder to yourself, as a gift for someone else, or simply to support a worthy cause. The engraved words on the inside of the bracelet - hope, act, live - are inspirational to any woman! Breast cancer is not a prerequisite to wear this piece. Those are good words to live by regardless of personal circumstances. Thank you, Amazon, for your efforts in supporting a worthwhile cause with a well made piece of fine jewelry at an affordable price!  Comment | Permalink |  (Report this)
