There are times in our lives that events happen
and no matter how much time passes, you remember every feeling and detail about
that event just like it happened yesterday. One of those moments for me happened about 17
years ago. It was the day my Mom came to
visit me after work and told me she had been diagnosed with breast cancer. As I sat there in my living room listening to
her so intently, it all seemed so unrealistic and at the age of 42 she was too
young to have breast cancer. Another one
of those moments happened just 2 years later.
I was teaching kindergarten and was called to the office for a phone
call. I knew immediately that something
was wrong when my husband was on the other end of the line. As I listened to him tell me that his Mom had
just called to tell him that she had just been diagnosed with breast cancer, I
could hear the same fear in his voice that I had felt just 2 years prior. So
many things have changed in the past 17 years with this disease. I have HOPE
that a cure will be found and I am doing what I can to help with that cause. I
am so proud of my Mother and Mother-in-Law… both are strong and
courageous women who are SURVIVIORS of breast cancer. This kit is dedicated to
them and all the other mothers, grandmothers, sisters, daughters, and friends
who are survivors or are currently fighting this disease. There is HOPE…
Some of you may ask why did we call them Oobies? Well, that is for my six year old daughter, Gracen. From the time she could talk, she has and probably always will call them oobies. If you are friends with our family you probably at times call them oobies, too! So girls, get those mammograms and SAVE Those Oobies!
I am pleased to present our Save the Oobies kit. It is an enormous kit with endless possibilities
and the most important part is that 100% of the proceeds for this kit will be
donated to the Susan G. Komen Foundation.
Please take the time to look through the kit and purchase it! It is for the best cause I know. We girls have to stick together.
Ta Ta for now,
Wendy
