Are you Aware...?



Cancer Awareness Pin



I had been wanting to design

a piece of jewelry that would represent

my dedication to the very many

precious people in my care

who have been affected by so many different types

of cancers

I have been given the privilege of getting to know 

many people who are passing through

very difficult times in their lives

and am thankful for it

because I have come to know

through their experiences

just how precious and

how very  fragile life is

and how in life there are no guarantees

I was able to represent

5 types of cancers in this

particular Awareness pin through

 the colours I have chosen

(Breast cancer ~ pink)

(Ovarian cancer ~ teal)

(Colon cancer ~ blue)

(Pancreatic cancer ~ purple)

(Bone cancer ~ white)

The word "Hope" was included

to convey God’s message of Hope to those in my

care who are weary...

"For I know the plans I have for you,”

declares the LORD,

“plans to prosper you and not to harm you,

plans to give you hope and a future."

Jeremiah 29:11 (NIV)

The angel was included

to serve as a symbol of God’s promise

" For it is written: 'He will command his angels

 concerning you to guard you carefully;

 they will lift you up in their hands,

so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.’"
(Luke 4:10-11 NIV)

The ribbon shaped charm

is the universal awareness symbol

I am thinking of making something similar

 

for my Etsy shop

 

I'd love to hear your thoughts...
