My mission of making Swarovski Cancer Awareness Bracelets to raise money for ACS is dedicated to my MOM, who lost her battle on May 10, 2010 and my DAD, who lost his battle on July 27,2011..

"Mom, you were hospitalized in 2009 and it was then that I began making bracelets. I made you one. Everyone who came in to care for you commented on how sparkly & lovely it was. You were so proud that I was making something so precious, beautiful & meaningful. Back then it was just a pretty bracelet for you to wear. 

Throughout  2010, you watched me make bracelet after bracelet for all those wonderful Bedford Court Sunrise residents & staff who also thought they were precious, beautiful and meaningful... Some were cancer survivors, some had lost family/friends to cancer while others had seen their friends wearing one & had to have one too. I loved holding your hand after each trip to the hospital--that hand sparkled with the crystal beauty... again though, it was just a pretty bracelet. I know you didnt remember that I was a cancer survivor (9yrs)--that was ok.  Each crystal color represented a different cancer.

On 4/15/10 you were finally diagnosed with late stage ovarian cancer -- which wasn't operable nor treatable. It was THEN that your pretty bracelet became more than just a bracelet. YOU, like the bracelet, were the sparkle in dad's eyes (61 yrs worth) and the reason for my year long fundraising mission of making these bracelets. The color
TEAL would be OUR color momma--that representing GYN cancer.

When you died on May 10, 2010, your bracelet became more precious than I could ever have imagined. Your spirit will live on in the hearts of everyone you touched & loved.

You were the sparkle in dad's eye..YOU were our precious gem that will be cherished forever!
Joy and I miss you BOTH and will always love you!"

To all who don't know what Relay for Life is.... it's a community coming together to HONOR, REMEMBER and FIGHT for those who have battled cancer. We raise money for American Cancer Society and then on June 8, 2013, we invite you to come out to be apart of this important day of remembering at Sherwood High School.

Blessings to all who have been affected by this non-discriminating disease and thank you for supporting this important cause!! Gratefully, Alicia

Cheer me on!

Thank you to my supporters!
