BILLINGS - Breast cancer warriors come in all shapes and sizes, including one Billings boy who is taking a stand by making a statement.

Echo Jamieson sent photos to Q2 of her son, 9-year-old Jesse, who wore pink everyday in October last year in support of breast cancer awareness.

Jamieson said her son plans to do it again this year, and his passion is catching on.

Jesse made a special request to his school principal, Clay Herron at Ponderosa Elementary, to paint the school mascot statue pink.

When students show up to school on the first day of October on Tuesday morning, they'll be greeted by an eight foot panther statue, painted pink.
