A couple of weeks ago I wrote about my awesomesauce friend Michelle and her battle with ovarian cancer. Since writing that post Michelle has started chemo and is fighting hard. She is staying positive and living out her faith in this difficult time.
True to form, when her hair started falling out earlier this week, Michelle put on her big girl panties and sent out a text. "Hair is falling out in handfuls so I'm taking a poll...... Shave it or wait??? :-)"
We all replied SHAVE IT!!!
So off we went, to the Cancer Resource Center where they buzz your head for free... and have all sorts of other great resources.
She was totally up beat and cheerful when we got there... I was too, but I definitely cried most of the way there. I pulled it together and allowed her joy to rub off on me.
Going...
Going...
GONE!!!
The whole time she was faced away from the mirror, so when they turned her around... SURPRISE!!!
Hat.
No hat.
Hat.
No hat.
Either way she's totally hott and definitely looks like she could kick my ass. Way to go Michelle!

ReplyDeleteAmy- thanks so much for putting up this story. Michelle sounds incredible inspiring.
ReplyDeleteDear friends make all the difference on this journey- So glad Michelle has you by her side. God has a plan and you're a big part of it. Michelle is reflecting the grace of God, which is why her smile is so bright and she has the strength to persevere. Glad to share the road with you two!

ReplyDeleteHi! I just discovered your blog, first of all I love it! Please tell Michelle, she looks HOT and watch out world she might start a new trend :) I don't know if she has heard of REIKI its a type of holistic energy healing, it is super relaxing and more and more cancer warriors are using REIKI when going thru chemo but its good for anyone anytime! I practice it and I just love it. Hugs to you both for sharing!! from another 2 L Michelle at
