RIP Bunny
Michelle Callanan (Bunton)
14/6/1974 - 26/12/2008

I have built this site to help communicate the most often question I am asked, "How is Bunny?"

I can't help the doctors but I can build websites.  Hopefully this site won't be just one way traffic as I will setup the site to allow you to post messages and respond.

The bad news is that Bunny's breast cancer returned in an agressive manner.  She started chemo but she passed away peacefully on the 26th December 2008 after a brave fight.

If you don't already know I am sorry you are finding out via a webpage.

Post a message to Bunny and register with the site I will add more stuff as I can.

Email any queries to tellme@howisbunny.com or contact me.

Thanks to all those who have offered themselves and prayers they are very much appreciated.

Goodbye my lover

Sean

Bunny thanks you for the support.

It's been a while since I blogged here, I know this may not be read but it needs to be written.

3 years ago I had one of the best days of my life when I married Bunny. I don't remember nerves because I remember the peace, the laughter and yes the waiting... thanks U2. Parts of this year have been tough & challenging but I'm also lucky & grateful for the year I've had. I still think of Bun often, I miss her but I know she's happy.

I know the next month will be filled with memories of late last year, I won't avoid it, I can't. Remember this is still HowIsBunny not HowIsSean... I'm doing OK, sure it's not all great all the time but the "smiler" is in front of the "frowner" as a good friend of mine would say.

To the people who are keeping me smiling, thanks, especially you sweetness.

As Bun would say to all of you, "Bless ya"

Happy Birthday Bun, you'd be happy to know that we having a party for Beau's 1st today. He was jumping for joy last time he saw you now you can't stop him, I'll give him a big kiss from you. Everyone will be thinking of you too. Gotta go and get some Krispy Kremes. Bless ya

Reflecting on things especially at this time of year makes me remember the effort Bun went to for others.  Especially at birthdays, she loved everything about them.  Bun would never describe herself as a thinker but rest assured for the 11 months preceding anyone's birthday she was always thinking about it.  Our "magic" wardrobe was always full of presents with mental notes on all of them.  We all know how hard she was to buy for which she did finally admit to me after several years of explaining that her generousity was so much that is was not normal.  Bless her, we wouldn't have her any other way.

So as one of her best mates Lish had her birthday this week and another Melissa waits for the stork to arrive and turn a year older we all know that Bun is still with us ... Read More »

Just got home from Adam Hills show, it was filled with plenty of laughs but the show had a heavy message for me at least. The shows title is Inflatable and is dedicated to some friends Adam Hills recently lost. He described his friends as Inflaters, people who lift people up and we all have the ability to inflate or deflate others. His story about his friend even included them wearing Bunny ears. It doesn't take much but how can you not think of Bunny with a story like that...

She was definitely an Inflater and continues to inflate those who knew her.

You don't often leave a comedy show and cry on the drive home, I miss you Babe, but I am so happy you inflated my life.

 Bless Ya Bunny

Thanks to our creative team of Larry, Laz & Hilario for terrific work on the booklet for the service.  I'm glad we went with an 8 page booklet as anything less would have been useless as a fan.

Bunny funeral booklet - special thanks to the artists - Rhys, Eden, Archer & Julia

Also Larry also produced an extended mix booklet which included everything this website has.

Hi Sean I found out from Cindy and have been really upset for days. Today was the first day I could face the website and wanted to say to you that I am so sorry to hear about Chelles. Although she wasnt directly my sister in law I always felt close to her and loved her very much. We are in Uk at the moment but have put a request to return earlier as I really want to be with Chelles on 6th Jan. Please take care of yourself. Love Eric Lucy and Abby xx Submitted By: Lucy

Shell Bell Dear Sean, My thoughts are with you. I heard of the passing of my little cousin from my brother. I was shocked to hear she had suffered from the same terrible illness as my Aunty C . I havent been in contact with Shell for many years ,so only have memories of a little girl,who loved life and her family. I have been reading all about the Gorgeous young woman who she grew into and how loved she was. She is with her Mum and her Aunty Hihene (Irene ) now and at rest.

My thoughts go out to you Sean, your family and Bunny's family at this difficult time. I worked with Bunny at Medibank. When I joined the company in 2001, Bunny instantly welcomed me and made me feel part of the team - that was how Bunny was. Wicked humour, infectious smile and the biggest heart. Over the years I worked there we shared many laughs, girlie chats and a few nights out on the tiles. What I loved and admired about Bunny was her sense of self - she knew who she was, what she wanted and what she believed in - and from that she never wavered. Bunny's beautiful legacy to all who knew her will always burn bright. Bless Ya Bunny Youngie (Michelle Young) xx Submitted By: Michelle (Youngie)

Michelle Dear Sean, you don't know me but I worked with Michelle at Medibank. I will miss her very much, haven't been at MPL for a while but she is definately a person I have fond memories of from my 5 years there. It was always nice to see her early in the morning all happy and that was pretty much my coffee (pick me up for the day). She definately had that affect on a lot of people there and I can only imagine the loss you feel. With deepest sympathy, Dominik. Submitted By: Dominik Pietrzykowski

So Sorry Sean I am so sorry to hear about the passing of Bunny, I did not get to meet her but she sounded like a beautiful girl who you loved very much. My thoughts are with you and all the Family. Love from Bernie (Your second cousin from Pakenham). Submitted By: Bernie Runting (Callanan)

Sean, I'm sorry for your loss. I hope you and your family are coping okay. I really can't think of much else to say. I think I'll go make a donation to the McGrath foundation, just to feel a little bit useful. All the best. Ryan Submitted By: Ryan

Just got back in today 30/12 and read the email from Alan. It was a shock for Judy and myself - especially since we were thinking of Michelle and you very much in the lead up to Christmas and on the Day itself. Our thoughts are with you and the children Sean. Roy and Judy Submitted By: Roy and Judy

It was such a shock to find out. We used to talk and found out we lived in the same street when we were kids. Of the many years I have known Bunny, she has always been happy, kind and considerate. I, we, are the better to have known her. I will miss her. To Sean and the family, my thoughts are with you. Doug. Submitted By: Douglas Clay
