A Touch of Pink
"October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month".
There is no "Art" in this image, for once I am using a simple picture in order to give a simple message:
"Any woman should have an annual clinical breast exam and should do a monthly self-exam because today breast cancer can be cured if it is diagnosed in time".
This woman on the picture loved life, she spoke several languages, she travelled in many countries and met many people.
She had a family, she was loved and she loved.
She was born in Normandie near the ocean, she enjoyed walking near the sea with her dog at sunrise and she liked to invite her friends at home for unforgetable parties.
She was playing Beethoven and Chopin at the piano but she was listening to Bruce Springsteen while driving her car.
Wherever she was going you could smell Jicky (by Guerlain)...
She has been a surgeon therefore she was aware of medical treatments but she decided to forget that little thing which appeared one day on her breast.
During the two last years of her life there was only Champagne in her fridge, it was a way for her to deny what was going on.
I guess she was too scared.
She didn't tell anyone and no one could see it...
When I shot this picture nine years ago I didn't know then that it was one of my mother's last pictures.
Usualy I am not immodest when I comment my images but I am involved in this "Breast Cancer Awarness Campaign" and if those words can help at least one woman to go for Breast Cancer Prevention, then my mother's death wouldn't be useless.
