B-day wish: Feed Mike to the Sharks

Donation protected
Let's feed him to the sharks... Okay, not really.

Mike's birthday is March 10th and he always draws the short stick. I continue to experience emotional havoc the week of and during his birthday. Although it's kind of understood why I'm emotional (the loss of my sister and unborn nephew) I am frustrated that Mike's birthday has gotten dismissed the past 11 years. 

This year I want to change that!

So I thought of a plan.

A plan to make one of his dream come true. A plan to shock and surprise him and satisfy one of his bucket list goals. Mike is a huge fan of sea life/marine biology. He is especially passionate about sharks and whales. He's had a desire for the longest time to go shark cage diving. Now, I thought this was something we'd have to go to S. Africa to make happen. But recently discovered, no, you can go to Cape Cod and make it happen.

I looked into Cape Cod Shark Adventures and I was wondering if you were interested in participating in sending Mike shark cage diving. My hope and goal is to go up with him in July (without the kids) and take him out for the day diving.

Now, I'll be honest I don't know if I have enough guts to get in the water myself. I might be scuba certified but I'm a little wary of sharks and other animals that can tear off my limbs. But if this thing gets funded. I will do it with him! (probably make another dream come true!)

There is no pressure to contribute but if you even wanted to give a few bucks I will put your name on the card. I want him to know and feel loved by community.

Mike so often gets overlooked on his birthday and I'd love to show him that we think he is doing such an amazing job! He is an amazing father and a wonderful husband... and a loyal friend.

He has sacrificed so much caring for me and the kids. He was Samuel's full-time caregiver throughout the entire cancer treatment. He gives his time and energy for others all the time.

I'd love for him to be so shocked and surprised by how much others care about him.

Thanks for being his friends, family, and community! And thanks for helping make his wildest dreams come true!!!!

Love,

Jennifer Napier

P.S. ~ Even if you can't give anything... would you please send him a text or a FB message on his Birthday... it's this Tuesday!

Cost of this trip is divided up between gas & tolls there and back, the actual shark cage dive is $350, plus the cost of hotel and food.
