Join the Boob Vacation

Read on…This is an event from a FB friend of mine…Boob on Vacation for @Wil Whalen.
Not only do I think it’s an awesome idea but I also think that you should do it. Be a part of positive healing through humor!
“Here’s the deal. I lost my mother, my Aunt Dottie and my childhood friend to cancer. Lasts year, I lost my dear friend Rose. Now another woman I’m close to has been diagnosed.
Cathy Morris is like a mother to me. For 8 years she’s been very good to me. Icannot even put into words how much I love her dearly. Her kids Michele and Damien are two of my favorite people on the planet. They are my Maine Family. They’re the first people I call with good news and they have my back when times are tough. So….the bad news. Cathy has breast cancer. She is having a mastectomy. The day she found out she had cancer we all went out for food and drinks. Cathy also has an amazing sense of humor as well. She said, “I’m not going to look at it like I lost a boob, I’m just going to pretend it went on vacation.” Then she proceeded to make jokes about her boob going around the world having a great time. Then she said she wanted to write a book about her boob on vacation. And that gave me this idea. If she thinks her boob is on vacation, then it should send post cards. So I want everyone to go buy a post card from the town you live in and send it to Mama Morris. Write something witty about what her boob did while there mention you and your friends/family and sign it, Love Your Boob. Wil Whalen
Example from one of our mom-stuff moms.
Mamma Morris,
Hello, I am enjoying the sun in St George UT with two cute goofy girls,
Love,
Your Boob
Our wish is for her to receive a TON of these postcards so she can make a scrap book of her Boob On Vacation. You have no idea how much this will mean to her. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE DO THIS! It will be the best medicine ever! Also, feel free to pay it forward and get a bunch of your friends to do it as well. You have all my gratitude for this! And yes, even if you live here in Maine, still do it. Also, if you feel so inclined, copy the text of this event and email it to 10 friends.
When she receives all her post cards, I’ve going to scan them in my computer front and back and then have a hard back book made for her.

If you want to send me a pic of your post card I will down load them to Facebook (dianne@mom-stuff.com.) I think we can get some serious momentum going for Cathy. I love the idea of lots of us coming together for healing with laughter.

  1. This is an awesome idea! I'm going to definitely pass the idea around. I'm glad your friend is staying so positive... it's not easy but with friends like you she should be just fine! I'll be praying for her and will definitely be sending a postcard!
