    Yeah it's kind of like that except in all the different colors for the different kinds of Cancer.... but many people will choose one color for a specific cancer and make a bracelet like the one above.

    We had a first friday event at the store and the customers bought Cancer kits to make and proceeds went to Relay for Life. It was a really popular event. We also made breast cancer bracelet kits.

    But i have never heard of the multi cancer bracelets before until I moved here and almost everyone has one.

    These have been around for years. I wear a pink one as a breast cancer survivor. Lance Armstrong started it with the yellow bracelets for whatever cancer he had (I forget). You can get a whole selection of them here:

    it has all the different ones in one bracelet. I think they are really neat and I have never seen them before until just recently.

    Is Relay for Life out where any of you are from or no?

    I remember the yellow silicone Lance Armstrong bracelets and wore one for a year or so - I liked the idea. His was testicular cancer wasn't it? The yellow color was because that was the color of his jersey. Seems that this has continued to be popular though I had not seen the bracelets with the pretty Swarovski crystals and some ever spell out "Survivor" in letters. That site RedHedd posted above showed some bracelets for "mothers" with letter beads and one spelled out "Tyler" (my grandson) and that one caught my eye....sort of like the "mothers rings" I used to see that had birthstones for your children. Very pretty. I like the yellow cat's eye beads in awareness of missing children/Amber alert. It says 10% goes to charity and the prices are very good, I think.

    I can never get the support colors straight though....pink for cancer, red for heart health - I think?? Isn't red also for AIDS awareness?

    Yes, my boyfriend wears a bracelet in honor of his father. It is light purple. He passed away last spring at the age of 50.
