Breast Cancer Awareness Nail Art

I did these nails for Ooooo Shiny's nail art contest. The theme is: nail art for a cause. I decided to do cancer awareness nails. I chose this theme because cancer is a very close disease to me. Many of my relatives have suffered cancer. Sadly, not all of them have survived. My mother was diagnosed with cancer 6 years ago. It was a very depressing time to everyone who was close to her. She had to have surgery to remove the tumour. During the operation the doctors found out that there was no cancer. She was misdiagnosed (phew).
Now she is happily living her life cancerless. I am lighting a candle to remember everyone that has been killed  by cancer. I invite you to do the same.

Interstitial Cystitis nail art

Nails supporting Interstitial Cystitis awareness. I did these nails about three months ago for a nail art contest (which I lost). It was quite hard to do because it is almost impossible to get inspiration for disease themed nail art. Finally I found a picture on the internet which I fell in love with instantly. I found the picture at this link: http://www.zazzle.es/mordeduras_intersticiales_de_la_cistitis_posters-228340108872813869

So, here are my nails.
