In tutu to support his wife with cancer: "I want to help her laugh"
When Linda was diagnosed with cancer, Bob Carey didn't think twice. After years spent behind the Reflex he decided to turn his life upside down and began to be photographed wearing a very funny pink tutu.
The reason? He wanted to see the smile on his wife's face again.
In moments when Linda would have to undergo treatment to fight the disease, she would have her cell phone with her and would have shown her husband's photos to friends and nurses, thus creating a chain of laughter impossible to break.
Bob wore the tutu at all times and places.
He wore it in Times Square:
