My mother has thyroid cancer. This was somthing I had known nothing about, but I want to do what I can for her, and everyone else. I want tshirts and bracelets, but in the mean time, today or tomorrow actually, I'm getting a tattoo. It will be 2 ribbons, one will be half pink and half yellow, for my husband the soldier, and for my grandmother, 8 years breast cancer free. The other ribbon I want to be a thyroid cancer support ribbon. My problem is that I have seen mulitple colors, and dont want to get the wrong thing.

I have seen, just purple

blue, teal, and pink

and purple teal and pink.

If there is anyone who can tell me the actual colors I would appreciate it very much. Thanks so much and God bless

All three of those are valid. The one most commonly used is the blue, teal, and pink. Purple is most often used for Pancreatic Cancer but it is also used with Thyroid Cancer.

I am sorry about your mother's cancer. I hope she is doing well.
