When my mom was going through treatment for breast cancer, her cousin gave her an engraved One Day at a Time bracelet like this one. It was a daily reminder to live in the moment, and take each day as it came. My mom reminded me of this bracelet the other day, and said she puts it on whenever she’s going through a tough time.

This morning, the bracelet came to mind when I was talking to my friend about her sister’s ongoing battle with cancer. I just wanted to share this little piece of jewelry with you, because it meant (and means) so much to my mom. If you or someone you know is going through a hard time, this is a meaningful gift that might help her through it.
