We all have been touched by someone who has had to deal with huge challenges in their lives. I have one very dear friend who has had to deal with more challenges then anyone I know before the age of 40.
So this necklace is in honor of her.
Each charm represents a part of her life.
1. The blue crystal is for her son.
2. The pink is for her battle against breast cancer. She beat it!
3. The star is for her angel in heaven, we love you Angelina.
4. The purple heart represents the foundation she started in honor of her young daughter to provide funding for metabolic research.
5. The word "life" is for her great joy of life. She has so many friends that have helped her through the rough parts, but she has given so much more then she could ever comprehend.
To learn more about the Angelina Foundation and all the work we have done over the years, check out the website.
