Day of Diagnosis

In January 2018, the Pink Christmas™ Day of Diagnosis Initiative was started. This significant collaboration involves Dr. Laura Lawson, a renowned breast surgeon in Nashville, TN. Recognizing that the diagnosis of breast cancer is a moment laden with a myriad of emotions, this initiative aims to offer a measure of solace. Following the delivery of this life-altering news, Dr. Lawson presents patients with a thoughtful Pink Christmas™ gift, symbolizing both support and compassion. We are immensely grateful for her partnership and the positive impact it brings.
