Our Good-Deed-Doer....

So, growing up, it was always really just my sister and I. I had step siblings come and go, but Mary has always been there, since I was born, she's been there to protect, comfort and love me.....even though times she didn't want to. She is one of the MOST important people in my life...and thats said with honesty...

She is the sweet one between us...she always has been. She will be shaving her head for cancer research through this organization....its nation wide, but she is in Boise Idaho. Her hair (which is super long and pretty) will be donated to Locks of Love.

I'm not soliciting $, but it would mean the world to me if you could support her. She's a wonderful woman...

If you go to the website and donate under Mary Herington......even just a few bucks.....this means a lot to her, and so it means a lot to me.

THE REWARD: I mean, other than supporting my sister while she shaves her head for Cancer Research and donates ALL of her earnings and her hair.....YOU GET AN ALL EXPENSE PAID........ready guys???

............An ENTIRE dinner, made by yours truly to be delivered any day/night of the week you choose. Yes..WHATS THAT YOU SAY??? Yes, thats what I said...a nice dinner for you and your family to eat...and you don't even have to cook it...I will. I pr0mise is it will be eatable. ;-)

This of course is only offered to the locals....sorry ;-) But what wouldn't you pay for a meal to be at your doorstep in time for dinner?!?!..made by YOURS TRULY!!!

So...there's your extra incentive.....

This isn't some FWD for raising donations...its my SISTER...who will indeed shave her head next week.....lets make her feel that it was worth it....I will post pictures as well, so we can all follow her in her good-deed-doer endeavor.

The link is below, and so is the Email she sent me, I further talked with her on the phone (mostly every night usually) and got all the details...its all ligit. She's had to go through so many approvals to do this, for work, for the organization, etc. Sh'es put forth quite a bit of effort, just to qualify.

The link is super easy to navigate, I went on already.

Please spread the word.
I would at this time like to tell you a little about the above site. This site is to collect donations for Cancer Research. I alone am trying to raise $5000.00 in donations, and in return I will be shaving my lovely locks off. Yes I did say shaving. I will also be sending my hair to Locks of Love. This may be a little extreme but I was blessed with hair,and knock on wood I am healthy.
I would also like to invite you to witness this lovely event on March 14th at the Knitting Factory I guess starting at 12:00 pm.
Thank you, I really am not one to ask for money but this is for a great cause and I want to help out all that I can, even if it means I will have no hair for a month or so.
Thank you for your time
Shavee Mary Herington
