Griffin posts information to mark start of National Breast Cancer Awareness Month

Sharing from Griffin Hospital's Facebook page:

"In recognition of the start of National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Griffin Health is raising awareness about the importance of early detection.

"Please share these breast cancer screening facts on your Facebook page today as we work together to save lives!"

October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month.


This is a photo from today of yours truly and fashion designer Agathe Likoba, owner of Likoba, a high-end Parisian boutique, celebrating the start of National Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

I'm an almost 10-year breast cancer survivor and so grateful for Agathe's support over the past two years since I met her when she opened her store at 25 Elizabeth St., Derby.

Recuperation journey: Looking at the sky

The sky was beautiful Wednesday afternoon so I had to pick up the camera! 

The clouds in this photo looked like an outstretched hand to me. What do you see?
