Pink Ribbon/Cancer Awareness Ideas

Helen Elicabeth Johnson   mom

On March 28, 1983, my best girlfriend, my mom, Helen Elizabeth (Magee) Johnson, passed away. She was just 54 and the bravest person I have ever known. For 7 years she battled breast cancer.  I miss her smile and her laugh, and her sense of humor.  My heart twinges (just a little) when my friends visit their moms, or hang out with them at the mall, or just talk with their mothers on the phone.  My mom died 9 weeks after my 2nd baby was born.  I wish scientists would find a cure already!!  

My prayer is that no other daughter (or son) would need to lose their mom, or aunt, or grandma, or sister to this disease.  So far I have lost my mom and 2 aunts to this disease and my older sister is a survivor of it!  My husband and I will be setting up a booth at the local "Relay for Life" April 2007, and hope to walk and raise money to help find cures for all kinds of cancers.

Here are some patterns to make to help bring awareness to everyone about this plight!
