Pinktober!

The start of October is my favorite time of year, the air is changing, it finally getting chilly out, the leaves will soon be changing. The start of October used to just mean the beginning of fall for me.. but after this past year September and October have a little different and more important meanings than they used to.

This past February I was diagnosed with stage 1c Ovarian Cancer, I am a 24 year old "healthy" as in never go to the doctor, female. I only discovered this news after learning that I was pregnant and scheduling my first ultrasound where incidently my tumor was found. I am now cancer-free after a pretty extensive surgery that resulted in me losing my left ovary and fallopian tube. But myself and my baby girl made it through surgery unscathed, minus a few staples (like 20 OUCH!)

September is National Ovarian Cancer Awareness month which means a lot to me for obvious reasons, and followed by that is Pinktober! October is Breast Cancer Awareness month and I am so excited to announce that I am partnered with BrandBacker and Glamulet to bring forth more awareness this month and every month for Women's Cancers.

Glamulet is a fashion brand that specializes in ADORABLE accessories they carry a wide range of jewelry in many different styles and finishes. A few things they carry are rings, necklaces, charms and bracelets. You'll just have to trust me on this and head on over to their site to check them out!!
Click here to check out their site!! A little added plus.. every charm purchased from the breast cancer line donates 50% to breast cancer awareness!! Grabbing some cute gems AND helping out a great cause, you can't get much better than that.

Sadly every 45 minutes a woman dies from breast cancer. We need to support this research as by hopefully someday another woman will not have to suffer this awful disease! Let me take this time as well to remind all women no matter what age to get YEARLY CHECKUPS do not ever let yourself skip a year.

Join myself and Glamulet in supporting this great cause! Cancer affects us all in some form or another and we all need to combine forces to combat cancer and make it a thing of the past!
