how you like me now?

ummmkay. this is the place to toy with design.

we have a situation that requires your participation.

me: "a need for a stilted abode with sandy landscaping and crashing amenities. crashing as in waves. and beds. there must also be food; nachos, coffee and cocktails within walking distance because the 4 women in need of said abode plan on a free weekend."

you: "why? ... wait, did you say FREE? well, every body wants a free vacation! what's so special about these four women?"

me: "they belong to the wilms pack."

you: "wilms? ohhhh, that's the kind of cancer gwyn was diagnosed with last year."

me: "yes, wilms. and yes this is cancer related. well let's get to the point before i lose you. one of the wilms mamas lost her daughter this past sunday. skye getter almost made it to her 8th birthday. she was dx with wilms stage I and had a 99% chance for survival. she had four relapses during her fight with the douchelord"

you: "wow, that leaves me speechless"

me: "good, then pay attention and i'll finish up. skye's mama's name is angie. she lives in ohio a city over from one of the other wilms mamas, melissa. well, melissa and my friend christy that lives in apex met somehow through this whole cancer thing and that's where i came on board."

you: "so tell me about this free weekend."

me: "this pack of mamas have talked about eventually getting together, somewhere where nobody knows their name(doot-doot-do) and nobody care's you came(doot-doot-do) we don't wanna go where people know, the people are all the same...we wanna go where nobody knowssss our name." that's right, we want freedom from the needles, the smell of hospitals and our walls that hold so many emotions. no guilt. no parental or spousal duddies. free to roam the miles of sand. free to walk out of the door responsibility free. free of healthy meal planning and a 3 hour nights sleep we call our nap."

you: "did you just spit on the cheers theme song?"

me: "but did you get the point? don't you think there should be a make-a-wish for adults?"

you: "sure, i'll take a million dollars."

me: "uhhhh...a mother just lost her child. she just wants to stick her toes in the sand, listen to the waves and smell the salt air with 3 handlers. melissa, christy and myself."

you: "so what do you need?"

me: "just a place to sleep. one weekend. any time soon, anywhere on the east coast between atlantic city to myrtle beach. we have two in ohio and two in nc(raleigh). we just need to get the pack together for the sake of angie. for the love of skye and the rest of our children that have battled this beast."
