When it comes to breast cancer so many people are effected not only the patient but everyone that loves them. One diagnoses can rock a family to it’s very knees. The good thing about breast cancer is that it is in the forefront finally. People are talking about it and most of all trying to find a cure for it. People are realizing that this disease needs a cure and fast because it effects so many. More and more women are surviving breast cancer this is due to to a lot of research on treatment. Women are proud to stand up and say they are a survivor. With support organizations like the Kay Yow/WBCA Cancer Fund one day we will not have so many women diagnosed with breast cancer. Awareness brings answers and gets things out of the shadows and on the minds of everyone and more importantly on the research for a cure program. You might be wondering what you can do to make a difference in something that is effecting so many people one way that we can help is to purchase a pink ribbon gumball machine to put in our offices and fill with pink gumballs to heighten awareness. Filled with pink gumballs it is a visual reminder of what we are fighting and a reminder when we are united we are strong. In women oriented businesses like spas and salons it would be the perfect place to display a gumball machine with pink gumballs. Individuals can also make a purchase and help to bring awareness. Everyone wants a cure for this devastating disease and now there is one more thing that we can do to help keep awareness raised and on the minds of everyone.
