October is Breast Cancer awareness month. I had a great opportunity to speak to my local paper on Wednesday about my experience with cancer. I was over the moon with the article. The great journalist Katie who came to my house to interview me, picked up on all the messages I wanted to send out to anyone who is going through it at the moment. Thank you to Katie and the Swindon Advertiser. If I can help someone who is going through it to see there is light at the end of the tunnel then I have done my job.
I really enjoy doing media work for Breakthrough Breast Cancer and see it as a priviledge to be asked to support such a great Charity. The steps they are making through research is amazing but will only keep going through charitable donations.
On a more random note. I bought a onesie (adult baby grow) and I was very excited about it. It is white with a sort of pink pattern going through it. By the way, most Men are onesie hatters, so I have learnt! Women on the other hand love them. Any way, I stupidly put it in with a white's wash, and turned all my whites pink! So I am doing really well for wear it pink this month! However, not sure my son will think the same when he has to wear his white/pink polo shirts for school, whoops!
A friend of mine has stared a sewing group to support Cancer, and raise funds for charity. She is a Breast cancer survivor too, and loves to sew so wanted to do good. You can see their site on www.stitchnbitchforcharity.co.uk.
ReplyDeleteIt'd be great if the word got out for such a great cause.
