Bra Burning Party

Saturday, 25 October 2008

Last night was amazing. I was truly touched by the support and willingness of my friends and family to burn their bras in honor of my upcoming double mastectomy. Someone was looking out for us, as it poured rain all day, and then stopped raining for about an hour to give us enough time to get the fire going and throw our bras in. This is not something I would recommend doing. We were all astounded by how quickly the bras went up in flames or melted away.
Who knew bras were so flammable. And the smell…OMG…potent, disgusting and at times unbearable. There must be a hole in the ozone right above our backyard now. All that remains in the chiminea are the wires from all the underwire bras.
All in all, it was a great time and the amount of support I’m receiving from everyone is truly appreciated and will be much needed soon.
