Can you imagine a more depressing group of cards all lumped together? "Miscarriage," "Divorce," and "Recovery Support" are sad enough. Then they go and add "Menopause" and "Weight Loss Encouragement!" Well, those two are actually kind of funny to me. I'm sure that going through menopause is probably sucky and depressing, and I KNOW that giving up cakes, pies and pizzas for the sake of a smaller pant size can makes life seem lackluster and meaningless. BUT I don't think I'd want a greeting card reminding me of all that. In fact, I really don't think I'd want a card for a divorce either. Or a miscarriage! It's just funny to me that they have cards for all this stuff, and strangely, it looks like most of them have been bought up. Maybe people purchased them as jokes? Like a bunch of college kids sending out the recovery ones. Or maybe some girls who drunk eat a lot send out the weight loss encouragement? I don't know. Do you buy cards of the "unique needs" nature? Send me one!
