In September of 2005, one of my very good friends and Kaitlynn's god-mother was diagnosed with Breast Cancer. She has had a masectomy and has been cancer free for some time. Most of you that know me, are aware that I grow and donate my hair for wigs. Over the next couple of weeks (I have to decide when) I will be donating another 10 inches (if not more of my hair).
This will be my third donation in ten years. I will have donated almost 36 inches, yes 3 feet of my hair. In the past two donations I have sent it to Locks of Love because it was specifically for children. This time I found the Pantene Beautiful Lengths Campaign about a year ago. I promised that this donation would be in honor of my friend and her journey.
I walked most of this path with her and there were many times I left her home crying, praying she would find the strenth to fight. I know there were days she wanted to quit. Since she is now cancer free. My donation is in her honor. I have attached photos from first donation. When I complete my third donation I will add those photos too.
