Hi folks,

My name is Greg, and I'm from New York. This is an absolute crazy request. My mom, who's 72, and terminally ill, has had a life long obsession to dip her toes in Mississippi mud. It's crazy, I know... I'm not sure why, but I don't question it. I'm looking to satisfy her wish before she passes on. If anyone can help I would eternally appreciate it. I can add the water but I'm hoping someone could mail me a small bag of dirt to fulfill her dream. I will send you $10 via paypal to cover the shipping. If you can help me out, please let me know. It would mean the world to her. Thank you

I don't think it's crazy, I had an Aunt that use to eat clumps of dirt as a snack. Your story is toughing man, it's hits home.

Crap!!! I was in MS this summer. If I saw your request earlier, rest assured, I would have obliged in earnest.

We would be interested to learn of her reaction when you present the Mississippi mud to her.

I really appreciate those who are down to earth folk, like your mother seems to be!
