October 2015 Is Breast Cancer Awareness Month.  Project Go Pink is a local event coordinated by the Middlesex Hospital and local business to raise awareness about Breast Cancer throughout the community.

Project Go Pink is an annual event in which local Breast cancer survivors are self-nominated, or nominated by a family member or friend for a free make-over.  Ten women are chosen to participate at the “Project Pink Fashion Show” for their courageous battle with breast cancer. 

All money raise from the “Project Pink Fashion Show” is donated to the Middlesex Hospital Comprehensive Breast Center. All funds raised go to helping patients pay for services that are not normally covered by health insurance plans such as:

  • Massage therapy
  • Reflexology
  • Acupuncture
  • Reiki

October 2015 Is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, so please visit the GoPinkProject website to find out more about Project Go Pink, and learn more about how you can contribute and participate in the wonderful event.

What a great way to pamper the cancer survivors with a free makeover. I'm sure it's appreciated, and October is a great time for mammograms, too, ladies!

George,  This is my month George ... the year of my birth and also now very meaningful as I celebrate year 3 of being cancer free from stage 3 breast cancer.  I remember very well the feeling of being bald, no eye lashes, no eyebrows ... and the "painting on" of whatever I could to "feel" not so much like a cue ball. What a wonderful event ... makeovers.

Hi George... a great cause and a great way to acknowledge it. Who of us doesn't know at least one person who's been affected by this disease? Unfortunately, our Susan G Komen 5K race scheduled for tomorrow was cancelled because we are under an emergency flood advisory in all of North Carolina's 100 counties and South Carolina. Such a shame, as so much preparation always goes into this very popular Charlotte event.

Cancer sucks. My mother-in-law survived breast cancer but the "cure" left her susceptible to get sick again, and the second time was leukemia, and within months she was gone.

Ive got my pink on.  Thankfully I know a lot more survivors than people who lost their battle, but I support anything that brings awareness and funds to fight for this cause.

Good morning George. All of us need to do our part, there are many events that will be happening, as the one you described. In some way, have been touched by this disease.

Make it a great weekend!

Good morning George Souto,

It's wonderful to see so many events being planned across the country to call attention to breast cancer. I have a colleague in our office who has been through this horrible disease twice in the past 2 years..she is a fighter and has the best attitude I've ever seen!
