October Is Breast Cancer Awareness Month

Cancer is a topic nobody ever wants to deal with or talk about. The deadly C has affected everyone at some point during their life's. Cancer has worked its way into my life three times in my 40 years on this earth, and each time it was heart wrenching for me to watch my loved ones suffer and lose their battles with this deadly disease. I felt so powerless when I was watching them suffer. The powerless feeling just made me angry. Was there something I could do to help this person? At that point there was nothing I could do. The past few years there has been huge leaps and bounds in the fight against cancer with the use of stem cells from menstrual blood. One day this new research may save a person that you hold dear to your heart. In honor of breast cancer awareness month Cryo-Cell International, Inc and The National Institutes of Health have joined forces to research the use of menstrual stem cells to treat breast cancer. In honor of Breast Cancer awareness month Cryo-Cell is generously donating to Susan B. Komen Foundation. For every purchase of the Protect Baby, Protect Mom service a donation of $50.00 will be made, and for every purchase of the C’elle Menstrual Stem Cell service a $25.00 donation will be made. If you have a loved one that is having the biggest fight of their life with Cancer please take some time to look into Cryo-Cell and stem cell research. It might very well save their life. With a C'Elle Breast Cancer Donation you could be saving a life. Stop by and help a person in need with Cyro-Cell Breast Cancer Donation.

Walk For Breast Cancer

I think everyone has there own personal story of Cancer. Whether it's breast cancer or another type of cancer. There's always a story to tell and a story to be heard. In 1985 my grandfather passed away from cancer. Then in 2003 my mother In-law lost her battle with cancer and passed away at the age of 59. After losing two people to this terrible disease I started questioning the way I was eating and if I was getting enough exercise. After my little one was born in 2003 we started changing our eating habits and began to exercise more. My little one is allergic to all dairy, eggs and shell fish. It was easy to change our diet because my little one couldn't eat much but vegetables and fruit. My husband also had very high blood pressure at the time. The doctor told him to change his eating habits or he would be on medication very soon. One year after we changed our eating habits and starting eating healthier my hubby's blood pressure was down to normal and no medication was needed. We were so very happy. I've been taking walks every morning to help increase my heart rate. I really enjoying going out to my families lake house and walking around the entire lake. It's such a relaxing walk. I've often thought about walking for breast cancer. I think it's an amazing way to show your support for all your loved ones who are fighting for their life’s or who have passed on. Due to my interest in walking for cancer I came across this amazing site called BeeWell Miles . Once you join this great site you can log your miles with them.
