Small victories still count. Ring the moments that deserve to be honored.
A cancer support bell for the moments that matter.
Created for bladder cancer warriors, survivors, and loved ones who deserve to celebrate every step forward.
I want to change the narrative of beating cancer with a single victorious moment, to celebrating small victories. Small Victories Bells were created to celebrate those moments with hope, encouragement, and love.
Not every cancer journey ends with ringing the big victory bell. Small Victories Bells are here to honor the smaller wins like finishing treatment, getting through surgery, reaching a clear scan, or simply making it through a hard day.
What Is a Small Victory?
A small victory may not look small to the person living through it.
It might be making it through surgery. Finishing a treatment round. Hearing encouraging scan results. Getting out of bed on a hard day. Showing up to another appointment. Starting over after recurrence. Holding on to hope when the journey feels long.
That reality can feel lonely.
These bells are a reminder that strength is not only found at the finish line. Sometimes it is found in simply continuing on.
How Small Victories Bells Work
Each Small Victories Bell is free. The only cost is $12 for shipping.
You can request a bell for yourself or for someone you love. It can be sent to a patient, survivor, caregiver, or anyone who needs a reminder that their strength and progress matter. We are also taking donations to send boxes to urologist offices or other medical facilities for those who will not experience that one big moment of victory.
For Clinics and Providers: If your office treats cancer patients and would like to offer Small Victories Bells, please reach out at blessyourvibes@gmail.com.
Inspired by Kristian
This effort was also inspired by my friend Kristian, who was recently diagnosed with bladder cancer. Watching someone you care about begin this journey reminds you how quickly life can change and how deeply support matters. His story helped strengthen my desire to create something meaningful for people facing cancer, one milestone at a time.
Fuller bio and his personal story is coming soon.
Chelle’s Discovery
As a chronic bladder cancer patient with 10 recurrences over 8 years, several surgeries and chemo treatments, I experienced the disappointment of not being offered the chance to ring a victory bell at my urology office. Those moments stayed with me. Later, I learned that many bladder cancer patients know that same disappointment. Small Victories Bells was created from that experience to remind warriors that their courage counts, their progress matters, and their victories deserve to be honored too.
For the Ones Still Fighting
Small Victories Bells hold special meaning for those living with bladder cancer, chronic cancer, recurrence, or long term treatment. So many cancer stories focus only on the finish line. But many people live in the middle of the journey, between appointments, scans, surgeries, treatment plans, setbacks, and hope.
These bells are for the people who keep showing up, keep enduring, keep believing, and keep going even when cancer is not fully behind them.
Every Victory Matters
Not every cancer story has a clean finish line. Not every warrior gets the moment people expect. But courage still deserves recognition. Hope still deserves a sound. And every small victory still counts.
If a Small Victories Bell would bless you or someone you love, request one today.
