Erin Takes Control

It must be hard dealing with cancer and feeling out of control.  Your body does what it wants to.  The doctors are in charge of the treatment plan.  Emotions are on overdrive.  I can only imagine how someone would want to exercise a degree of control over anything that they can.

Erin is doing just that.  She might have to be jabbed with needles, take tablets, throw up and sleep whenever she is told to, but she didn't wait for her hair to fall out on its own.  Before it got to that stage, she got rid of the lot of it, and I wish I had been there to watch because it looks like she had so much fun with her friend Brian, who let Erin shave all his hair off as well!

How beautiful does she look?  Who says a woman's hair is her crowning glory?  Not me!  It's her smile!

At this festive holiday season, please think about donating as much or as little as you can to Cancer Research UK (my fundraising link is to the right of this page) or the charity of your choice!
