Breast Cancer hits all families across the globe. It is estimated that there will be over 182,000 diagnosis of new cases of invasive breast cancer during 2008 in the US alone, and 40,000 women will die of breast cancer.
Kush Co. honors Breast Cancer Awareness Month beyond the simple business aspects … we honor it because it is a personal matter. The CEO of Kush Co. and inventor of the Kush Support product Cathinka Chandler honors Breast Cancer Awareness Month on behalf of her Aunt Nel, who is a breast cancer survivor living in Holland.
During 2006, Aunt Nel was diagnosed with breast cancer in her right breast and almost immediately had a mastectomy. Cathinka was able to book a flight to Holland to visit during her recovery from surgery and just prior to undergoing chemotherapy. Subsequently, Aunt Nel required further surgery having a lumpectomy on her left breast.
Cathinka recounts the strength and courage of her Aunt following her surgery, including her joking with Cathinka about never having the chance to be a Kush Support customer! Cathinka’s entire family has provided tremendous support for Nel throughout the process and benefit themselves by seeing her strength and perseverance.
Read Aunt Nel’s own words on the Breast Cancer Support page of the Kushsupport.com web site.
Here’s to Aunt Nel!
