I
am a survivor! Seven years ago, I was diagnosed
with invasive ductile carcinoma and faced a double
mastectomy, reconstruction and six months of chemo
treatments. Surviving breast cancer is a mile
stone that will be remembered this lifetime. But, I
have been blessed with yet an even greater blessing, my
daughter of 16 years, Stevie Ann. Stevie Ann fed me a
healing diet of courage, strength, and determination, all of
which were given unconditionally. A single mom and her
daughter fought the odds and won! We are a team, a
team of healing each other through our love of horses and
want to help make a difference though the special healing
power of an equine relationship.
Pink
Happens is a non-profit organization with the purpose to
assist those women with the unexpected financial expenses
brought forth due to breast cancer. Our fundraising and
contributions for this purpose are made possible through our
dedicated volunteers, as well as donations from businesses,
auctions and numerous sponsors.
Many
organizations have made a difference in research to find the
cure. But, few are widely recognized to assist those
survivors stressed with these financial struggles. Because
research has come so far, more and more women are living
through this chapter in their lives, only to find themselves
set back in debt to the doctors who were greatly responsible
for the very reason they are still here. While it is
appreciated and important, to fight for a cure with more and
more research needed, the fact remains that ‘Pink
Happens’. Pink Happens and Healing With Horses'
mission is to build upon the strength and courage to make
this treatment process a mental accomplishment. While the
ultimate goal, relative to this cause, is to fight or find
the cure for cancer. Pink Happens strives to gain
recognition, volunteers, financial support and knowledge to
help those women who have ridden or are currently riding
this trail. Please visit www.leatherdesigns.net
