ANOTHER PINK POST FOR BREAST CANCER AWARENESS MONTH

 

Today has been designated a special day to bring together all the Think Pink posts that are appearing all over the blogsphere by an Italian Blog Mamma Felice  to help promote that October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

www.nastrorosa.it Breast Cancer Awareness Month started

I posted my own Think Pink post ten days ago but to show my support to all these other wonderful bloggers I decided that I should participate today and publish here a list of some of the participating blogs. The full list to include Italian bloggers can be found here in the post Revolution in Pink Mamma Felice by clicking on the blue link.

I will not reproduce my post here again today, just this beautiful photo of my Favourite Pink Rose which I included in my original Think Pink post and a link back to the post which I hope you will be able to go and take a look at if if you have not already done so.

  11. Cheers to all our friends who successfully fought breast cancer, and a salute to those who have passed. It is a tough disease, I wish it could be banished. Yes, great cause.

  14. Cancer, a word of universal fear. Hopefully, one day closer to a cure, better treatment, perhaps a preventative.
    Your rose is beautiful - needs to be on the front of a crad.

  15. Mya -Unfortunately yes fear into the hearts of us all especially to those of us who have friends and family we have lost to this disease. You are right the rose would look good on a card, I wonder if it is possible?

  18. A beautiful rose, stunning. I've kind of "missed the boat" here with the pink posts, but I'm really happy to see them everywhere else as it's such an important campaign and something so scary...

    Thanks for the compliment by the way, no, I don't know either how I'm still posting daily, I have to admit that my comments are currently fewer simply because I cannot find the time...It's mad really.

    Anyway, have a good end of the week, Love from London xo
