Breast Cancer Pumpkin


This cute pumpkin was made by ANDREW HOM. He is 12 years old, and his mother was diagnosed with breast cancer at the beginning of this year. She contacted me through my blog and decided she wanted treatments at Mayo Clinic with the same doctors that I did. I think that children absorb more than we think they do. Andrew was not asked or coaxed to design his pumpkin this way; he just did it. I love it, Andrew, and thank you, Jodi, for emailing me the picture; I love that he used the bracelet I sent to you.
