Chemo Style: BALD IS BEAUTIFUL

My Mom, My Inspiration. My mom was diagnosed with breast cancer in July of 2006. She had both breasts removed shortly after her diagnosis. I was very worried about how my mom would deal with all that was going on with her.

I live in Alberta and my mom in British Columbia. So it is not like I could see her on a daily basis. When she started chemo I would phone to see how she was doing. When she first stated to lose her hair my dad shaved her head. She sent me a picture I could not believe how beautiful she is.

For Christmas I did up a basket of things that would help her relax or just make her feel happy. In this basket I put in some temporary tattoos. I had read a story in Chicken Soup for the Soul Breast Cancer Survivor where a women had put them where her breasts were. It picked up her spirits a lot so I thought maybe it might help my mom if she was having a down day.

We went home for Christmas she was thrilled with the basket and the tattoos. She did use the tattoos and now buys them herself and this is what she does with her tattoos. Mom, I Love You.
