Welcome To My Challenge!

Good Morning Lovely Bloggers!

Welcome to my Challenge!
This is a sticky post & will stay at the top until the challenge closes
on the 29th September 2012 at 7.00pm UK time!

(Simply scroll down for newer posts!)
Breast Cancer Awareness and/or Think Pink,
not just a little use a lot!

This is a card I created previously, you can read about it here

If you read my Saturday post, You'll know what this is all about!

Around 18 months ago my Mum found a lump under her arm,
she was diagnosed with Breast Cancer & had had surgery followed by Chemotherapy,
she's now on her second type of Chemo & has Radiotherapy to look forward to!
Her journey has been a tough one with lots of setbacks along the way but she has
remained positive & strong beyond belief along the way!
You can check out more of the story on my Just Giving Page.
As a result of Chemo, my Mum has lost her hair.

(Mum & I)

I have been so moved by the experience & by how many people in the world
have been affected in one way & another by this terrible disease, that I decided
I just had to do something about it!
So, I'm having my head shaved on Saturday 8th September 3.30pm
@ The Out Of The Blue Drill Hall, Edinburgh
to raise funds for Breakthrough Breast Cancer!
Pop in if you're free!

"Breakthrough Breast Cancer is a pioneering charity dedicated to the prevention, treatment and ultimate eradication of breast cancer. We believe passionately that this disease can be beaten. By fighting on three fronts – research, campaigning and education – we are determined to save and change lives by removing the fear of breast cancer for good."

My hope is that we can raise awareness, as well as some funds via this challenge.
Just a small donation from each of you would make such a big difference!
Every £1 or $1 counts!
