Are there any other colors for the lung cancer awareness ribbon?
I know the most common color seen is pearl/white. My grandpa died of lung cancer and I’m getting a tattoo to commemorate him.
I’ve also thought of getting the ribbon in his favorite color.
moxd…thats breast cancer.
clear and pearl is pretty much impossible to tattoo…his favorite color was green…he was a farmer.
maybe stay with the farmer motif and get green/yellow stripes. I’m also getting an ALS ribbon (blue and white pinstripes) for a family friends mother who lost her life two years ago to ALS. Since then my family has been quite active in support for those with ALS and Lung Cancer.
The Month of November is recognized as Lung Cancer Awareness Month. The color of this Awareness Ribbon is Clear or Pearl.
Well, it seems that every ribbion color has specific meanings. So maybe before you settle on a color, you should see what each color stands for before you get it….
