aware that I'm rare
These special little hand-stamped keychains and necklaces have been made as my on-going annual fundraiser for rare tumour research.
Each letter on these charms has been individually hammered by hand. They are not machine made and each piece is completely one of a kind. The materials used are silver plated brass and 14k gold plated brass, nickel free.
Rare soft tissue tumours don't receive very much attention in terms of research funding or urgency though the impact of these tumours can affect individuals in every aspect of their lives. The answers available are few, which often leads to feelings of hopelessness.
My goal is to empower fellow individuals who are undergoing treatments such as surgery, radiation and chemotherapy, while learning to live with these rare tumours. I hope n the near future, more research can be done to explore tumours like mine and help find a cure. 100% of the profits will be donated towards tumour research.
