Hey beautiful & magical humans,
October is breast cancer awareness month and if you’ve been here for a while you know that here at Pardón we never miss an opportunity to raise awareness, to share kindness, some selfless love and initiate the kind of magic that only happens when people come together for a cause.
So just as last year, this one is for you. The you who bloomed despite the lump, the fear, the pain, the anxiety, the trauma, the despair, the change-of-life-kind-of-thing that happened to you. It’s for you too, the one in chemo right now, or in surgery or in a hospital bed healing or fighting. Or you - the you who bloomed and kept blooming every single day with a scar on your breast and a lot of unseen wounds under that. It’s also for you, the one not seeing this post because you fought and lost that round. It’s actually mainly for you, because spreading awareness and missing you is all we can do. And it’s also for you, the one living everyday with and without that loss. And it’s also for you - the friend, the sister or brother, the daughter or the son, and you the mum and the dad, you the wife, the husband, the girlfriend or boyfriend, the grandma, the cousin, the you that whatever you are, one way or another cancer knocked on your loved one’s door. We know, it hurts like f. There's no words to describe the helplessness that comes with it.
It’s for all of you blooming regardless.
This year, we’re keeping our pink breast cancer paper vase but we’re also adding another colour, yellow. Yellow as a colour to remind you that male breast cancer is very much a thing that deserves our attention and yellow, well yellow for hope.
For the second year in a row, 30% of profits from every sale of our breast cancer awareness vases will be donated to Europa Donna Cyprus (https://www.europadonna.org) to continue their valuable & incredible work.
One last thing!, (and i can’t stress this enough) check your titties regularly. Consult your doctor if something doesn't feel right. There's no one that knows your body more than you do, make sure you treat it with the same love and care as you do for everyone around you. If you don’t know how to check your breast right, then please ask for help, you insanely beautiful, flawed and magical human.

Order directly through instagram dm’s and www.pardonmyvase.com. Or just spread the word, share the message (& the love).
love & light,
PMV.
