Calendar Girl Blog: Unhappy Recipient Part Two
After a lengthy interview with CBC followed by the reporter finding a single unsold calendar in her city and reviewing the effort, the giver of the gift was contacted.
She was horrified by the outcome of her gift to her mother. Then the mom started to back track and the story suddenly took on a pathetic tone.
Fortunately good sense reigned and the idea was dropped.
Calendar Girl realizes that some people are offended by the calendar. No doubt having them pop up on the landscape every now and then helps keep her humble and on track.

I think that it is very funny and suiting that this calendar was a gift from a daughter to her mother. Whom she most likely wanted to share the experience of the calendar, and is obviously self aware of breast health and how it effects EVERY woman.

Yes Sue,
It can be good to hear about people who are offended sometimes. It's not nice but it might be of some good.
It can help strengthen your resolve to keep getting the message out there.
And yes, being offended is a valid response. If that's how this person responds, that how she responds. Now what she does with that response and whether she treats that as her issue or yours is another thing.
Strange she didn't speak to her daughter before calling you though.
As always, keep up the great work!
Chris
