Home Again, Home Again

Details soon--as soon as I can process it all.

Being home is wonderful! Nothing compares to the giant hugs and kisses.

While I'm thinking about what to say about BlogHer, please visit WhyMommy.

WhyMommy was going to join us this weekend, but due to Inflammatory Breast Cancer had to cancel her trip. I can tell you that she was missed. Having roomed with her best friend, I can promise you that she was missed terribly.

Her physical absence did not prevent her from generating conversations in Chicago though. The message is getting out. WhyMommy is using her experience with this most aggressive form of breast cancer to make more people aware of it. And for that, I bow to her.

Did you room with canape? Lucky girl, you. She's lovely.

I'm only now beginning to understand how wonderful this conference really is. Next year, maybe...

Thanks for visiting my site! Nice to meet you.

Oh, and yes, of course. WhyMommy rocks. She's incredible.

I just got here, but I just lost an aunt to cancer recently and I just wanted to say God Bless!

I just have to say that I LOVED meeting you and getting to hang out with you. You are awesome. And now I have to figure out how to move you to Seattle so we can hang out all the time!!

She was there in spirit. I have read a few of these posts and it is scary.

It was so great to meet you and uh, thanks for the reminder about Sat night - I don't remember that, but I believe you!

That is SCARY. She's in my thoughts today.

It was wonderful meeting you. You are an amazing, FUN, hot mamma. You were one of the first people I told my husband about. I adore you (and your awesome, sexy dress too!)

Stacey said...

I have definitely visited her site. Breast cancer has affected my life as well as my mom was diagnosed last October. So I very much understand the need for awareness and how crucial support is!

Can't wait to hear your BlogHer stories!

I thought about you all weekend, my dear! YOU are one of the hotties that I would've made a B line to meet.

From everything that I've seen and read so far, it looked like a fabulous time! SO glad it was so good for your soul, babe!

Jen said...

I sure hope she realizes the level of awareness she has brought to this issue. I had only vaguely heard of it before her. I pray for her healing!

Oh wow, I want to hear about Blogher. Am jealous.

Thanks for writing about WhyMommy. I will visit her site. Very sad.
