Blame Drew's Cancer
If you haven't heard of it, go
here. I hadn't heard the story until
Jake mentioned it to me.
Here's the short of it, this guy, Drew, finds out he has Hodgkins Lymphoma, Stage 3. Instead of feeling sorry for himself, he starts this...well, movement. The essence of the movement is to blame everything on his cancer. If you use Twitter, tell us what happened, and then use the hashtag #blamedrewscancer.
The example provided: I lost my keys today. #blamedrewscancer
Simple huh?
It will eventually show up on
BlameDrewsCancer.com (some fancy technology thing).
Check out
Blame-a-Thon as well.
When Drew beats Cancer we hope to have sponsors that will donate a dollar for every participant to our partner, LIVESTRONG.
It reminded me of myself post
Kate incident. I'd jokingly try to get away with all kinds of stuff saying something to the effect of, "But my daughter is in the hospital, she almost died."
I'm pretty sure I didn't use that until she was actually home though and well on her way to recovery. I'm also pretty sure I used it for quite some time at work after that.
Apparently it didn't work
too well for me. :)
