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)
(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...
