| My Great Aunt
Hattie was my inspiration for creating a series of bracelets and watches
for Breast Cancer Awareness. All of them are stunning feminine
designs featuring sterling silver beads, toggles and findings, Swarovski
Austrian pearls, Swarovski top quality machine faceted optically pure 32%
lead crystal beads, and Beadalon 49 Professional stringing wire. All
components and craftsmanship are the highest quality and are custom made
to fit you. Most of my
customers are breast cancer SURVIVORS, while others wear the jewelry in
support of breast cancer research and cancer patients they know and love.

This
is a picture of my Great Aunt Hattie as a very young woman.
Her death was caused by
breast cancer. She did not seek any medical help and did not
tell anyone that she suspected she had breast cancer. By the
time she was taken to the hospital the disease was in such an
advanced stage that she did not have a chance to survive. I
spent many summers with her when I was a teenager and she
participated in all the major life events in my life until her
death.
Please follow the recommendations for breast self exams and
mammograms and be sure to see your physician for regular
examinations. Do it for yourself and for those who love you.

breast cancer survivor. I had a mastectomy a year ago last
March, and finished treatments (chemo & radiation) in October of
last year. So, I've been cancer free for over a year. A
friend of mine had one of these bracelets and I thought it was
beautiful and would be really neat to have one."

"I am interested in Breast Cancer Awareness because I have several friends
who always do a walk or run to support Breast Cancer Awareness. I also
have a close friend who's father had breast cancer. So, I like to support
them -- and I saw the bracelet in a magazine called "lucky". I
went online to see if I could find it. I love Pink and I love Swarovski
crystal. So, here I am."
