News story. Must have been a slow news day...lol...just kidding

[mmoons]

Hi all-

I wanted to share the news story about me that was on our local NBC affiliate, WDIV Channel 4 last night: http://www.clickondetroit.com/video/23491496/index.html (http://www.clickondetroit.com/video/23491496/index.html)

It feels kinda narcissistic sharing this but I wanted you to see it.

They filmed for an hour…and 56 minutes ended on the copy room floor. My son Oscar kept picking his nose. LOL

The hook of the story was supposed to be about “how I am helping other moms (and dads and sisters and brothers)” and about representing HER2Support.org on my trip to Washington DC next week for the Department of Defense Congressional Review Board on breast cancer…but they never mentioned it. They also never put my blog link out there. Oh well...it is a video I will cherish and the people that came to film us were so kind.

My very best to you all! You are all always in my thoughts and prayers.


p.s. They also didn’t show when I thanked you all…my army of supporters. So let me now thank you again…so very much! I couldn’t have gotten this far without you!

Hi Maureen,

That is such a beautiful story... and you and your children are also so beautiful. It seems like you squeezed a great deal of information into a short time and you hit so many great points.
