  • confused about color

    Ok I am confused.. lol Those who know me knows thats not hard to do...
    BUT I thought the IC ribbon color was turquoise color... BUt when I was looking and googleing I came across several sites with awareness ribbons that are aware of IC woohoo ok but they acknowledge the color as blue.. along with several other things.. I was excited that are getting more aware of our disease but can someone set me straight on the color please...

    Blue: drunk driving, education, anti-tobacco, anti-second hand smoke, freedom of speech, child abuse prevention, colon cancer, water quality, crime victim rights, arthritis, hystiocytosis, domestic violence, water safety, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), interstitial cystitis, Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), Reye's syndrome, short bowel syndrome, myositis, leukodystrophy, hurricane support, police officers lost in the line of duty

    That teal color is also for ovarian cancer:
    Ovarian Cancer Research Alliance (OCRA) is the largest global nonprofit advancing ovarian cancer research while supporting patients and their families.
