Dry July

[placidfemme]

Hey All,

As you may or may not have heard, Dry July is coming!

Long story short, stop drinking for 31 days and gather sponsors/donations, all of which go towards the Auckland Hospital, who help treat over 300 adults a day fighting cancer.

I love drinking but I like the idea of helping this cause more-so, so here goes... 31 days without a drink!

No doubt we have all been touched by this horrible illness, directly or indirectly. So whether you know me personally or not, please feel free to support my efforts with this cause. It has helped people we loved in the past, people we love now and unfortunatley people we know in the future. If anyone has been through this, or supported someone through cancer, you will know what a great job Auckland Hospital does. I personally have spent hours in various departments of Auckland Hospital supporting my mother through her various operations and treatments. And even though she did not win her battle with cancer, I cannot express my gratitude enough to every person involved (seen and unseen) who played some part in trying to help her. So this is very close to my heart.

Or even better than supporting me, jump on board and have a Dry July!

Cool. Big ups to you. Alcohol seems like fun for a while but the sadness and despair is grey and obscure. Nobody remembers drunks with affection, just sadness.

Good on ya, worthy cause. I dont drink, but it is a great idea.

As you were then....
