Purple is the color of Lymphoma. Here I am, all decked out. I am pushing this color so much that I think I am going to end up looking like a freaking eggplant. Ironically it has always been one of my fave colors but I totally did not anticipate incorporting it as a standard fixture in my everyday fashion...lol...jeeze louise. PURPLE.
The May event is coming along. It coming up very soon. I worry alot about how it will turn out. It's my nature to have high expectations. Presentation is everything. I was interviewed on Tuesday for the CIAO MONTREAL Television show. I had purple everything. This is what WIGGED OUT is totally about. People need to become more aware. This is my main purpose. PURPLE.
I get alot of the,"Oh, I am really sorry to hear you were sick, but I know alot of people who had it and they live totally normal lives now." Ummm....what? This does not help me. This is not a comfort. This is the problem. Lymphoma Cancer does have a good survival rate, assuming you are strong enough to handle the cancer and that you do not have any other complications, but it is a cancer like any other. I am not sure that tagging it as the best cancer to have is a good thing because it only makes people who don't have it brush it off like a bad cold. PURPLE.
I find it easy for some people to talk. Sometimes not saying anything is a better solution. I constantly get "condolences"....lol...Dude! I am not dead...lol..I just have cancer. As a 27 year old girl being diagnosed with cancer, I was confronted with having to do things I never thought I would have to do. I overcame it. It is still a constant battle. PURPLE.
ALL I can say is that come to my event on May 25th. It is going to be great. I need bodies, get your friends, make a table, do whatever you can to come. It is all about Lymphoma, it is all about PURPLE. Help fight Lymphoma Cancer and don't brush it off. Wear PURPLE to support. Please contact me at elisabetta@wiggedoutinpurple.org for info. As well if any of you know anyone who would like to be a sponsor. Everything and anything would be a great help and totally appreciated.
PURPLE. PURPLE. PURPLE. PURPLE. PURPLE. PURPLE.
