Boobiethon...
boobiethon now has my photo. if i'm ballsy enough, then i'll own up to which one is mine by posting it here as an HNT picture. if not, then i'm sorry. but you can always enjoy it with the others over here. please donate here.
as you seasoned readers probably remember, i'm a huge breast cancer cure supporter. it has hit my family, as well as the families of other loved ones, and i am praying for a cure. so with this time of the year comes weird looks from coworkers as i carefully stash away all the pink yogurt lids. buying the breast cancer stamps, even though they cost a little more. clicking away at the breast cancer site. taking scandalous pictures for boobiethon. wearing my pink bracelet (like the livestrong ones) along with the pink ribbon. now that i'm in better shape i might even try to do the race for the cure.
i know it seems over-emotional, but i tear up when october rolls around and i see just how much support there is for finding a cure for breast cancer. special M&Ms, special stamps, special deals or discounts at stores, donations all over. it reminds me of my grandmother, her struggle with breast cancer, her victory over it, and her passion for the cause. she was a proud survivor. i know it's egotistical, but i always thought that part of this effort to find a cure was to save her.
so please support the cause. it affects everyone. not only can either gender have breast cancer, but there isn't a person out there who doesn't like boobies. women, you have them, and guys, you love them. so let's keep as many pairs safe from the evils of cancer.
