Our Story
On Valentine’s Day 2023, Barbara was unexpectedly diagnosed with ovarian cancer during a planned partial hysterectomy, which turned into a full one. The shocking news came post-surgery, and while her prognosis was encouraging, it now required chemotherapy.
Barbara’s daughters quickly immersed themselves in learning about ovarian cancer and chemo care—joining support groups, reading articles, and gathering comfort supplies. Her daughter Robyn stayed by her side, offering support and carefully documenting symptoms like intense heat, joint pain, neuropathy, and swallowing issues. Though the journey was painful and exhausting, Barbara remained resilient, often saying, “I’m beating this, it’s not beating me!”
Her positivity inspired the family. In the infusion center, she found encouragement in fellow patients’ strength and stories. During this time, Robyn and her husband discovered Pickleball—an unexpected source of joy, community, and stress relief. From this experience, DropShots.net was born.
We create jewelry that symbolizes hope, strength, and resilience, blending inspiration from Barbara’s cancer journey with the camaraderie of Pickleball. Our pieces carry Purpose, Strength, and Spirit—a message we aim to share far and wide.
