Within days, both Carol Ann Cole and her mother were diagnosed with breast cancer. While Carol Ann was able to beat it, the loss of her mother later that year had a monumental impact on her life. When she walked into a pewter store and discovered the Worry Hearts, small hearts that people can rub in times of stress, she knew she'd found the way to give back to the cancer community. By altering the design and renaming them Comfort Hearts, Carol Ann created the Comfort Heart Initiative and to date has raised more than $1 million for cancer research. That little piece of pewter has become a talisman for more than 160,000 Canadians and their families.Cole, Carol Ann is the author of 'Comfort Heart A Personal Memoir' with ISBN 9781550224733 and ISBN 1550224735.
