Let's talk about the best mother, grandmother and pet mom in the world...
THEO CHRISTMAN
aka
MIMI
She hates attention and is regularly embarrassed by us, her rumble, tumble squad of children, grandchildren and pets. But nevertheless, Mimi's Mammary Monsters carry on. Loving her and wishing we could be her. Mimi is the glue that holds this messy squad together and we couldn't do it without her. She is our strength, our light - she is our Superwoman!
So when she was first diagnosed with breat cancer in 2013, we were all shocked.
How could our personal superhero have cancer?
She is untouchable - she is off-limits to this disease!
True to form, she set off for MD Anderson and fought - 0ne lumpectomy (plus radiation) later, she was in the clear.
Until 2019...
Her doctor found another lump.
So back to MD Anderson she went for proton therapy.
THEN just this summer, she got the ALL CLEAR from her doctor who said - "I don't want to see you for at least two years!"
That's why Mimi's Mammary Monsters are looking to you to help raise money for Project Mammogram to cover procedures for under- or uninsured women in our community.
We want to fight this disease as hard as Mimi has and we need your help!
Mimi had insurance and the ability to have multiple mammograms but many women in our own community do not.
EVERY DOLLAR COUNTS AND WILL BE MATCHED!
In a normal year, Mimi would spend the third Friday of October at the "In The Pink of Health" Luncheon with her fabulous friends having drenched in pink and hearing an inspirational speech. They would laugh, cry and raise money. Since she can't be there, let's show her some love by raising money in her honor for Project Mammogram and help save some lives! And this year we have an extremely generous donor who will
MATCH EVERY DOLLAR RAISED IN 2020!
You can even sponsor a mammogram at the cost of $150!
