Help save the Boobies!!!

Hey Fellow Pelicans,

I'm writing this to ask you all to read my wife's story. It might not be unlike stories you've read before, or even lived through yourselves. It's one of those "it could never happen to me" situations.....well it can, and does.

She is amazing, incredible, inspiring, unbelievable, believable and so much more.

Some of you know her from Rennlist. She's RJT or better known as Mother Superior.
She's a true Porsche fanatic....even managed a Porsche Race team in ALMS!

Instead of me trying to explain everything, I'm going to link her story here....
If you can donate a little (or a lot) everyone will benefit!

You know....10 of you donating 10 dollars each would be enough to do a mammogram for a woman and might save her life!

Hi Guys ~ This is JoAnne and not Rob.

I just wanted to THANK YOU for helping me out. I've set my goal pretty high, but I really do want to help women get mammograms that they couldn't afford to get without grants from folks like SGK. My breast cancer was detected so early that the three little spots were called microscopic. It might have been years till a lump would have formed and could have been felt. Early detection might not save the boobies (as in my case), but it sure can save lives. Until there is a cure, it's the best we've got.

Right now I am at 35% of my goal and there are only 75 days left till the day of the race. I've got a ways to go. If you can help, please do.

Once again to those who have already donated, THANK YOU. You just may have saved a life.

JoAnne reached 48% of her goal over the weekend!

I just noticed that 2.7 MILLON views have been "racked" up on the Chest Thread! If we don't do something about breast cancer, there won't be many future threads about boobs.

I'm not begging yet....OK I am.....
Please donate a buck or two in JoAnne's name. NO money goes to JoAnne...100% goes to the Susan G Koman Cancer research foundation.

If you can, just click on the link in the first post.

Thanks
