The
Wear Gray fundraiser starts tomorrow, Sunday, 9/12. Proceeds benefit the
American Brain Tumor Association. Sanura Snowpaw started the fundraising campaign after she lost a cousin to brain cancer. This is an important cause. I lost a colleague to brain cancer. He was a professor, and he was loved by his students and his colleagues. He had a way of making everyone feel smart and important, and he made learning fun. I still, sometimes, when I'm walking into work, think I see him out of the corner of my eye. His illness came on suddenly during finals week one year. He just collapsed. His health quickly deteriorated and he passed away about 7 months later. We all miss him terribly, and have named a scholarship in his honor. My favorite quote of his was, "Psychology comforts the afflicted. Sociology afflicts the comforted." How true.
Please support wear gray so no one has to lose a friend or family member this way. The outfit I'm wearing is a collaboration between Ivey Deschanel of Sn@tch and Sanura Snowpaw of Dreams. It includes the bodysuit, the skirt, and the socks. There is also a set of beautiful skins included with your donation. The "Unforgettable" necklace is from Puarangi Designs Jewellery. The hair with the mask and feather included is from RezIpsa Loc, and the skin is from Mango Mango. All these items are your gifts for donating to the ABTA and 100% of your donation goes to the charity for these items.
