The Pink Army

In December of 2004 I found out that a friend of mine of  30 years, had been diagnosed with breast cancer.

In February of 2005 I received a call from her brother, out of the blue after 25 years of no communication.  I thought he was calling because he needed to speak to an old friend, one that he could share how he was feeling about the news.


Her brother had been my high school sweetheart and is now my spouse.

That is a story for another day.

Loretta fought hard for 7 years.  She "beat" breast cancer but then it spread to other parts of her body.  She earned her angel wings on August 17, 2012.  Unfortunately,  I was in bed for a week with a horrible cold/exhaustion/over use of a human and was unable to attend her funeral.

I wore a pink rubber bracelet in her honor the entire 7 years she fought.  I never took it off.  It finally turned white from all the showers and hand washings it went through.

When ever possible I have done fundraisers and tried to promote breast cancer awareness.

Recently I learned about a program that Florida Hospital has created called "PINK ARMY".

They are enlisting soldiers. Join the Pink Army and be part of a unified effort to end breast cancer. As a Florida Hospital foot soldier, you will play an integral role in bringing education, awareness and hope to the people of our community.   Go to Join the Pink Army   Please use my ID# 28114 when you sign up as your referrer/recruiter.

I'm honored to have a way to raise money for The Pink Army through my business, Park Lane Jewelry.  We have a fabulous ring called the HOPE RING.  It retails for $117 but you can order 5 for only  $170.

I changed my pink/white plastic bracelet for a stunning CZ SIGNATURE bracelet in pink.  It retails for $499 and is worth every penny.  I am offering 5 for only $575.  

Both of these items would be perfect for any Breast Cancer awareness fundraising efforts.  You can keep one of each and raffle off the rest or get 4 other friends and share the costs.  That would make the ring only $34 each and the bracelet an amazing $115.

I am donating 10% of the sales of these items to The Pink Army in Loretta's name.  Contact me with any questions and to place your order.

Please share the information about The Pink Army and these jewelry specials with all your friends and loved ones.

Thank you in advance.  Now go register for The Pink Army and schedule your mammograms!

UPDATE----I had my Mammogram today.  What are you waiting for???
