Last October, we created a post sharing ways for our followers to support Breast Cancer Research. At the time, not knowing that this frightening and life changing disease would hit much closer to home than we could ever expect.
Needless to say this year, October has a whole new meaning. We cannot express how important it is to check, check and check again. Early detection is definitely key in survival. Here are some ways to shop and show your support and spread hope and courage to women out there impacted by this disease. Every little bit helps ~ Ladies, WE NEED A CURE.
