I'm ready to become hairless to help a friend with a bill or two. No donation is too small. I'm still looking for a purple G-string or butt floss (thong). But, we will find one or two. Someone said I should wear a pink one. So, I will try to do as asked.
All of you who follow my blog, please pass the word to others to help Bob. He is an Air Force veteran, which may interest some.
As we go along, I will be posting updates. So keep coming back to see if I'm naked yet!
It has been a while since I have done anything crazy like this. I'm looking forward to it. Especially since it will help a friend. It will be fun and I hope it will put a smile or two on everyone's faces.
Thank you all for your support and your donations.
I wonder how much all the hair on a human body weighs. Plus, if the hair on my head is long enough it will be donated to Locks of Love (I guess it depends on how long before I reach $500 in donations.)
This is a win-win for everyone:
- I get a fall shearing
- Bob gets some money to pay a medical bill or two
- Someone else will possibly get hair for a wig
- and you all get to see me get sheared, so there's a show! With me in a thong (or two.) I hope that I don't burn anybody's retnas out.
So, lets get this thing going. ON YOUR MARK, GET SET, GO!! I hope it's not to drafty.
Though I want to help Bob, I will miss your soft, pretty hair.
ReplyDeleteKathi, It will grow back. I hope. Besides, we will save money on hair shampoo.
Deletebuddy - you are the best and you certainly demonstrate what a true friend is! i promise to donate again at the end of this month...for now, i need to know what size thong you wear and whether you want a purple or a pink one???? i am also putting up a post about what you are doing on our blog!
ReplyDeletelots of love to you and Kath...and to Bob and his family!
your friend,
kymber

Deletekymber, thank you ever so much. and thanks for posting this. As for the thong, purple, and size fitum. (XL works.)

North - yer awesome buddy....just awesome!
DeleteThank you very much for your help, North! Much appreciated!
DeleteNorth, thank you so much. And thank you for posting this on your blog.
DeleteDone. I almost want to offer to wear a thong too, but that would probably have the opposite effect.
ReplyDeleteagirlandhergun, I'm speechless. And a bit red in the face. Thanks for the offer. And keep on going with your training.
DeleteAgain, thank you.
I just threw a chunk of change into the basket. I wish your pal Bob all the luck in the world. I beat a badly advanced case of throat cancer that had spread extensively in my lymph nodes. That was last year into this one and I can feel for your friend.
ReplyDeleteHe can beat it too but it is one hell of a fight. Please tell him, for me, to KICK CANCER's ASS.
All the best,
Glenn B
Glen B, thank you. And I will let Bob know. But, how are you doing?
DeleteBob's a fighter. And I know that he will give it his best.
Again, thank you.
I have been doing well so far, thanks for asking. They told me if I can go about 2 years without recurrence, I should not have to worry.
DeleteJust found you through the GBBL. Bless you for doing this for your dear friend Bob. I would love to be able to help out in some way, but can't contribute financially since we are fighting our own battle with brain cancer. :(
ReplyDeleteIf there is another way I can help, please let me know. Tell Bob to KICK THAT CANCER'S ASS!!!!
2A Mama, Thank you. I will let Bob know. And you need to KICK THAT CANCER'S ASS also. Your in our prayers. And if you want, maybe you could post about this.
DeleteI lost one of my best friends to cancer several years ago. It's nasty, and I truly hope that we find a cure for ALL cancers.
Again, thank you.
I will do just that. I'll re-post on my blog, and share on my FB wall as well.
DeleteMy hubs is the one with the tumor....all I can do is stay strong and be his cheerleader.
Sending prayers to Bob and his family!
I just thought of something else I would like to do for Bob. Can you email me so we can chat about it, please? :)

Thanks!
2A Mama, thank you so much. And your both are in our prayers. Never, never, never, give up. Give your hubby a high five for me. The tumor my friend had, was a little bigger than a golf ball. They say that they got it all. We will see.
ReplyDeleteGive our best to your husband.
Thank you, Flier. We have no intentions of giving up! We kicked it once, we just have to do it again! My hubby's tumor was about that same size. We'll be rooting for Bob as well!
DeleteHi Flier - I've come from my sis Kymber - and I wish you and your friend Bob all the very best!
ReplyDeleteAwesome cause and I hope my donation of a hundred dollars will help in some way.
Cheers ... Helga :))
Hi, Helga. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU! Any sister of Kymber's is a sister of mine.
DeleteLove you all...
Dear Flier - What a lovely thing to say ! Now I must properly thank you for that.
DeleteThank you Sir and have a wonderful Sunday - with your soon to be gone hair ! Teeheehee !
I ran an article and have created a link back here for Air Force Bob's Chemo Fund. Hope it helps a little. the rat
ReplyDeleteRat, thank you. As you say. Every little bit helps. say howdy to the Mrs, for me. And keep posting. I like what you have to say.
ReplyDeleteDone - you won't recognize the name (Brigid is not my first name) but it's on it's way via pay pal. I'll keep you in my prayers.
ReplyDeleteI've a fundraiser going on my blog for a lady blogger with a serious illness and a hubby (only income source) that just had a heart attack. When they are at their goal, I'll put a link up for you.
