The “We Heart You” Project
Posted on January 28, 2013 by PavementRunner in Everything Else, FitFluential
Our friend Krysten of DarwinianFail.com is having surgery on February 1 to “fix her heart.” I’m not going to go into great detail about her surgery because I would do a horrible job of explaining it. If you are so inclined, you can read about the “surgery 411″ here, but essentially they need to go in and make some tweeks to her robot heart. She is no stranger to surgery, but I wanted to send some positive energy and love her way
…and I brought some friends with me.
I’ll work on making a heart with my hands before Toronto. I know this isn’t how you wanted to start the year, but 100% is where you want to be and Penelope just needs a little tune up to match your energy and spirit. Cheers.
