Making awareness bracelets and donating 20% to organizations that research cures or provide support seemed to me to be a worthwhile endeavor - and it is. BUT... as is so often the case, in trying to provide a service/product for others, I find that I am the one on the receiving end.
What I've found is that each bracelet has a story. Each bracelet touches someone's life - and that life touches mine. The stories are sometimes heartbreaking; sometimes victorious, but each one becomes part of my life.
I thought about making a list on paper of people that I wanted to remember; people who could use positive thoughts and/or prayer. Instead, I decided to put the list here so that others might also send their loving, positive thoughts and prayers for the people who are represented by some of the bracelets.
