    Just wanted to remind everyone that Oct. is breast cancer awareness month. I think everyone has been touched by this in some form. I am a 7 year survivor. This design I put on my tee shirt is from http://emblibrary.com and it's free. In the search box just type in breast cancer

    "I am a 7 year survivor." Congratulations, that's great. Cute logo.

    Very appropriate for me, my eldest daughter is having radical surgery on Sept 30th ready to begin her recover on Oct 1st. She has already endured nine months of chemo.
    Good luck to all those of you who have had or have Breast cancer, and there families.
    I will be off line for a few days after Thursday and will catch up with you on Monday or Tuesday next week.

    I like the butterfly.

    My mom is a survivor and I now do the ultrasound because my moms cancer was detected months before they found it. Please make sure you do get yours done and if you have any doubts please talk to your doctor or get a second opinion if it wasn't for a fall my mom would have never found the cancer.

    I love that design. And I think it would be appropriate for any type of cancer. I understand they all have different colors - just embroider in the color that applies.

    I love this design...I think I need to use it in some of my sewing for the cancer center. I was diagnosed Feb. 15 '10 with hormone receptor breast cancer. Knock on wood, I haven't had chemo yet. It is in stage 4 and has matasisized to my spine. I have had radiation. Congratulations to all the have won their battle.
    Peace and blessings,

    Thank you. I just downloaded the design and will be putting it on a t-shirt for a dear friend. Pray they find a cure for all cancer SOON.
