important psa about buns
We raised rabbits when I was a child and my sister gave a rabbit a bath (she was 5) and it died..so heed this instruction.
I wasn’t going to reblog this, but then I realized I might save a rabbit.
This is important guys. If your rabbit gets into something gnarly and you HAVE to bathe them:
1. Fill a bowl with warm water.
2. Get a washcloth. Put it in the water. Squeeze it out until it is just damn.
3. Lightly scrub the dirty area on your bun.
4. That is it. DO NOT get your bun wet. Only slightly damp on the part that was dirty.

Do not bathe your bun!!!!

This is great on multiple levels.
Artists, we shouldn’t let the Nikeness distract us from the message.

Dear mom who just received a prenatal Down syndrome diagnosis,
I know how you feel.
Except — unlike you, I was holding my new baby, Kate, in my arms when I found out. She was wrapped in a blanket, looking up at me as I cried, listening to the Neonatologist on staff tell me — only minutes after she was born — that she had Down syndrome. And what that meant.
He said that it meant she had an extra chromosome. And that she would have learning delays. He said that it meant she was significantly predisposed to certain medical conditions, including congenital heart defects — and that we should get her heart tested right away. He said that it meant she had low muscle tone and may not be able to breastfeed. He said that it meant she would do things on a different schedule than other kids.
And in those first few days, after hearing those statistics, talking to doctors and researching online, I thought I knew what it “meant” to have a child with Down syndrome. And quite frankly, I was devastated.
And so it is with you.
But let me tell you — from one mother to another — those facts are not what it means to have a child with Down syndrome.
Many of those facts may not even apply to you. Some might, but many might not. I’ve learned this with all of my children. And I never allow generalizations to set my expectations…

So I’ve been contemplating for a couple years now on how I should come about this. As I don’t like asking for help or discussing personal tidbits about my life.
In 2007, my mom was involved in a life threatening malpractice causing her brain loss, broken ribs and nerve damage in both her legs. Resulting in her using a walker. All in which wasn’t her fault. Even after the accident she is very optimistic and humble and hasn’t asked for a thing. She deserves a second chance at life and a little happiness considering what a crummy year she’s been having.
My mom has exhausted every possible means. Insurance, health benefits, relatives’ and friends’ kindness. I need about $20,000 to pay for all the medical procedures, a nurse, her move and a new working functional car.
I don’t know what else to do except to ask. I’m embarrassed to do so, but if it turns out you guys are willing to help, and If I didn’t ask, I would never forgive myself. Please help this amazing lady. I currently don’t have much but I’ve posted up a few reward options. You can donate any amount. I’ll be eternally grateful.

It’s my mom’s Birthday today, I wish I could tell her about this fundraiser as a birthday gift but we’re not quite there yet. Show her some love and donate~
So, I haven’t updated this in quite some time. Things have been on the hectic side. At first, the good kind of hectic and then later down the line, the bad.
This summer, I had a work hiatus which gave me some free time but not only that the stars aligned to my favor and I actually managed to bring my mom to California for a visit! I’ve been living here for four years and this will be the first time she’s been since I moved. She enjoyed a day at Disneyland, (which she hasn’t seen in 16 years!) dining, the spa and meeting my crew and friends at work. She really enjoyed herself and I’m glad she got to experience a glimpse of what can be. The sad thing is, she only got to be here for one week.
I did notice she lost some steam since I last saw her. The past few months, my mom grew very sick. Not too much was known at the time. Things were starting to get looked at right before her visit to California. I didn’t want to take her away from her appointments even though she was having a good time. So I had to cut her visit short. As soon as she got back from her trip the doctors responded to us with her current status and results.
My mom has been diagnosed with colon cancer….
We just can’t catch a break it seems… I’ve been dealing with the news and that’s why I haven’t been able to update as much as I should. It’s been tearing me a part since she’s such a good person.They performed a CT scan and luckily it’s only located in her colon. She’s been doing her chemotherapy and radiation the past few weeks. It was that or cutting it out and risking her having to attach a bag to her for the rest of her life. The doctor said that it IS curable if she keeps going to her sessions. Which is a very positive thing.
I told her about all the generous people and friends who donated to this fundraiser. I told her people DO care for her and are thinking of her. I still haven’t told her the amount though. I would love to tell her that the full total was raised. I’m hoping she is cured after all this and she can FINALLY come to California for good. I want her to know that we made our goal.
She is in high spirits even with the tragic news and is taking this on day by day. Like she always does.
I’m at the low end of the stick right now and it would mean a lot for the additional help. I just want to finish what I started. Ya know? I want her to have another chance and start a new when she’s cured. Thanks, all. The donation link is located on this post~

Please signal boost the hell out of this! Tara and her mum need all the help they can get! <3 I know these cuties would greatly appreciate your help!
I wish I could give money but I can’t. 🙁 But my prayers shall be with you. Please, those who can donate, GIVE!
