SWADS are a universal, absorbent, insulated wrap used to keep your hands comfortable on any type of beverage you choose. The elastic cord makes it adjustable to different sizes. The insulation ensures your hands will stay DRY and warm on cold drinks as well as keep them from burning on hot drinks.
We had a great response to our December contest, "What are some of your New Year's resolutions." Our winners won a 2010 calendar donated by Breast Impressions and a hand knit item donated by Care to Knit. You can read some of the resolutions.
The 2010 Breast Impressions Survivor Wall Calendar is now on sale at www.BreastImpressionsCalendar.com. This year's calendar features thirteen breast cancer survivors from
Oklahoma, including a daughter age 20 and her mother age 47 who are going through treatment at the same time. Seven of the survivors in this year's calendar were diagnosed under the age of 40. The stories of each woman are shared on the monthly calendar page, where a pink ribbon appears on the 20th of each month to remind you to do your self breast exam! The photos are in black and white with a special pink item that captures the calendar girl's attitude about life!
Unfortunately many breast cancer patients don't have the opportunity to participate in physical therapy and consequently miss out on the many benefits of gentle exercise. But now these patients have access to a simple, affordable home exercise kit specifically designed to regain and maintain upper body conditioning. The RangeMaster Shoulder and Breast Kit from Therapeutic Dimensions includes therapist designed exercise
equipment and simple, easy-to-follow instructions to stretch, strengthen and restore range of motion to the breast and shoulder complex.
Da Capo Lifelong books has generously donated 4 copies of the new book written by Gail Konop Baker entitled, "Cancer is a Bitch, or I'd Rather Be Having a Midlife Crisis." For your chance to win a copy of the book, email Vicki Tashman, Pink-Link Founder with the answer to the following question:
How many women living in the US have been diagnosed and treated for breast cancer?
All correct entries will be put in a bowl and the winner drawn at the end of the month. Good luck!
