********SHUUUUUU... can U keep a secret?!********
THIS IS NOT LEFTOVER FROM NbN's APRIL 1st JOKE!
And NO! No one here knew about the following...
********
To all our dearest breast-friends:
Just a very HAPPY note to let you know that
"Mr. Tinkerbell and NaughtybyNature"
Are tying the knot on
Friday, August 8, 2008 at 5:00 P.M.
With love, forever and always
Bill and Lilia
********
PS: For those who do not know us, I (NbN) first came here looking for support for my surprise BC diagnosis back in 2003, sudden divorce (I had just gotten married) and back to single-mother life....
Later on I "saw" Bill (Mr. Tinkerbell) also here looking for support himself because Ann (Tinkerbell), his wife/companion of more than 30 years, was loosing her battle against a very sudden and aggressive BC/mets.
We "met" at my very first BC.Org Get Together in New York City in December of 2004.
We did not "connect" again until mid February 2005 and since the end of that same month we have been inseparable. "I had finally found him!" and the rest is history.
The "oldies" (that I no longer see around but know they are here still) might remember that I commented about finding "him" but never revealed his true identity until the "cat came out of the bag!" (Trip to Seattle to meet PepperB and celebrate my 40th).
All it took was this great website to bring us together.
To all single girls here: when and where you least expect... BAM! Someone will come along and will sweep you off your feet!
We made it to this day never forgetting what/who brought us together.
Thank you sisters.
Thank you BC.Org.
