Love Versus Cancer Resonates
Thanks to everyone who has shared what Love Versus Cancer means to them. Read some of the incredible comments we have received about the program - and the free wristbands:

"My co-worker's husband was just diagnosed with cancer. I was wondering if it would be possible to get some wristbands here in Hawaii so that she may share these with her family and friends. This would give her comfort and support."

Sheri H., Hilo, HI


"I would like two small wristbands, so I could give one to my son. I lost my son, Owen, to cancer when he was 4 in 2008. He was diagnosed with medulloblastoma (an aggressive brain tumor) when he was 3. Thank you for raising awareness for cancer. It can only help!"
   -  Jennifer A., Akron, NY

"My father died in May of liver cancer. I would love to have a bracelet for both my son and myself as we were an active part in his life and during his death. It was hard for my 10-year-old, but I know that being able to be a part of all that transpired meant a lot to him. Thank you so much for all you do!"

Kristi A., Aspers, PA

"May I please have a wristband for myself and my 17-year-old daughter? She just went through a big scare, with a lump in her breast and we found out it was negative after her lumpectomy. This would be a great way to remind her how lucky she really is."

Rosie A., Tuscon, AZ

"I am an occupational therapist and I would like to wear a wristband at work to honor my families and patients who are survivors. Thank you so much."
