Let's all run for Pink October

For the past few years, when October has dressed in pink to pay tribute to them, to inform, raise awareness and mobilize, we have been part of it. Because breast cancer, which remains the first fatal cancer in women, can be cured in more than 9 out of 10 cases when detected early.

Around us, very close to us, women, our friends, have suffered. Affected by this cursed breast cancer, they had to fight against the disease, undergo heavy treatments, sometimes even an ablation, a reconstruction, and learn to live their femininity differently. When they survived.

So for the past few years, when October has dressed in pink to pay tribute to them, to inform, raise awareness and mobilize, we are part of it. Because breast cancer, which remains the first fatal cancer in women, can be cured in more than 9 out of 10 cases when detected early.

So, yes, we talk about it. And yes, we donate our time or money to fund research. How do we do ? Well, we open our eyes wide because around us, everywhere, great initiatives are being carried out to do our part and contribute. Take for example Claire des Huilettes, she ran to Le Touquet for the Corrida Rose. 5 or 10kms for the benefit of a good cause. A good time and a pink tidal wave. In all towns and villages, throughout the month, conferences, meetings, events and a thousand events still displayed in pink allow you to join the fight against breast cancer. You'd have to be colorblind not to see them!

So girls, we think pink and each one as we can, we participate :)
