You know what I miss the most? Being carefree.
This statement is the inspiration behind the “If Only For a Second” project, a collaboration between the Mimi Foundation and Leo Burnett France.
Twenty cancer patients were invited to participate in a unique makeover experience. The results — which they could not in their wildest dreams have expected — made them forget about their illness and worries, if only for a while. The video has been posted widely on social networks, but we think it’s worth sharing again and again.
The Mimi Foundation is a French Charity focused on ‘bringing sunshine into the lives of patients.’ Life is meant to be enjoyed, even (or maybe especially) when fighting a battle with cancer. This film is deeply moving a testament to the healing power of silliness and laughter. It really is the best medicine.
