That’s how the saying goes, but May also brings with it two things equally beautiful: the promise of a cure for MS and Mom!
Mothers Day weekend (May 6 to 8) will again mark the annual MS Carnation Campaign, where all across Canada people can purchase bouquets of beautiful long-stemmed carnations with the proceeds of which help the MS society of Canada fulfill its mission to be a leader in finding a cure for multiple sclerosis, and enabling people affected by MS to enhance their quality of life.
Because of your generous support, millions have thus far been raised - money which assists Canadians from all walks of life better face the reality of dealing with this disease. Thanks to you, one flower at a time, we’ve helped hope ‘blossom,’ made futures ‘bloom,’ and ‘stemmed’ despair from creeping into people’s lives.
Visit the MS Society of Canada’s website, or call your local chapter or unit to inquire where you can make a purchase near you.
This May, give flowers to someone you love (pssst... your mom... hint hint) and take satisfaction in knowing that you helped us get that much closer to being able to end MS as well as showing your Mother how much you truly care.
Now eat your vegetables, and go clean your room!
Irreverently Yours,
Aug. who truly loves his mom, but who absolutely refuses to eat his spinach!
