Thank you to the Hermosa Beach City Council and Mayor Dean Francois for the 3rd annual Proclamation of Breast Cancer Awareness Month and lighting up Pier Plaza in pink. Vigilance is key—being fearless doesn’t mean you aren’t scared; it means taking action anyway. Advocate for your health and make that mammogram appointment—early detection saves lives. I’m living proof after 14 years. The Pinktober lights at Pier Plaza remind us of the strength and solidarity in our community. Hope is stronger than fear, and we are all connected by this cause. Remember, pink is stronger than you think. With gratitude for every breath.
