A woman with cancer posts a billboard in Times Square to find her daughter's fiancé

Molly and Beth Davis agree that the mother knows best. Including when it comes to finding a man for Molly herself. Even if it requires a billboard on Times Squaretelling New York Post.

Last week, Beth's mom did just that when a 14m by 7m ad appeared at the crossroads of the world, right above Tonik. A billboard with a photo of 30-year-old Molly and the URL of her dating profile reads “Date my daughter».

This is all part of Beth's quest to "know I'm leaving her in good hands."

Beth was first diagnosed with breast cancer in 2004 and was treated with chemotherapy. In June 2020, doctors told her that she had developed metastatic breast cancer that had spread widely to her bones.

So time is of the essence if she and her husband Rick, a 62-year-old medical writer, are going to walk Molly down the aisle together.

Beth wants her daughter to be happy.

“I wish my daughter had a good job,” said Beth, who was previously in the pharmaceutical sales business. She is undergoing treatment with Ibrans pills, which she hopes will help contain the cancer for at least two years.

“Given that I have serious health problems, this is urgent,” Beth added.

So Beth, who also has a "happily married" son, took matters into her own hands and posted her daughter's profile on Wingman. This is a dating app where friends and family give information to users. The ad explicitly stated that Beth wanted "my daughter to love a good man."

The profile touched on Wingman founder Tina Wilson, who posted a billboard. Beth also appears in commercials herself with a small photo and the words "I am Molly's mate and mate."

Mom said, "This is true as Molly was my assistant, accompanying me to various appointments with the oncologist."

Some of Beth's friends told Beth that “their daughters will kill them if they do what I do. They thought it was interference. " However, Molly, who describes herself as “agreeable,” appreciates her mom's judgment in her search for the right life partner.

Molly doesn't mind mom's initiative

“I let my mom enjoy the profiles and responses,” said Molly, who hasn't spoken to anyone on the app yet. "I appreciate a relationship like my parents had when they discuss different things and achieve a high degree of kindness."

Mother and daughter saw the billboard together over the weekend. “We got out of Uber, turned a corner, and Molly was there,” Beth said. I threw my head back, my glasses fell off, and I giggled. We both jumped with excitement. Most people get 15 minutes of fame. But we have a whole month. "

While they watched police officer New Yorker stopped, looked at the billboard, looked at Molly, said, "Hey, it's you up there," and "commented on how beautiful my daughter is," Beth added. (Unfortunately, they didn't take his number.)

Whoever manages to catch Molly will do well if he takes his time. “I think a good first date doesn't take any rush,” she said. - Maybe we'll have a drink and play billiards. Smart, kind and with a sense of humor is what is perfect. Someone with the character of Chris Hemsworth or Ryan Reynolds. "

Speaking of celebrities, Molly's billboard ended up next to Olivia Rodrigo's "Sour" billboard. “Poor Olivia,” Beth said. "My daughter overshadows her."
