Breast Cancer Awareness Month
I think it is a really important thing to discuss.
And because it is Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
Early detection is the key to Breast Cancer.

I lost my sister-in-law Darylanne to cancer. She was 42 with a 8 year old little boy.
That was 12 years ago.
She was the bravest and most courageous person I have ever known.
Unfortunately she was not a miracle but you can be!
Get your mammogram!!!
I care about all of you!!

I am so sorry for your loss Heather.
I've been meaning to do some art for the cause too. You have motivated me. Love your painting! Happy PPF!
So true! I am so sorry for your loss, she was so very young!
Losing family to cancer is always such a devastating loss. I think its great you have taken that painful history and turned it into motivation to really reach out to others in a proactive way.
and the painting is stunning. those lips!
Sorry for your loss - cancer is such a terrible thing - it seems every family has been affected. Thank-you for the gentle reminder to beware.

You are so right. And what a beautiful gesture to incorporate it into a painting.
A beautiful and very apt painting for your message. A terrible disease indeed.
Thanks for sharing ~ hugs to you ~ your sister is 'watching over you' like never before ~ Love your painting and your art style ~ thanks ~Happy PPF ~ namaste, Carol ^_^ (Share the Creative Journey)
beautiful painting and a beautiful message. knowledge is power and we all must continue to speak up about what we know - to honor those we've lost, and to help prevent more loss.
A beautiful painting and a very important message. We are losing far too many of our friends and relatives to this. It's easy to put it off, but so important not to.
Gorgeous painting and a timely message.. If only they could find a simple detection method for the other kind of breast cancer - inflammatory b.c.
