So this morning, Melissa, Mom, Ty and I decided to venture out into the world of wigs to see what moms options might be when she starts to lose her hair due to the chemotherapy. We ended up at a shop where the woman helping us was so nice and helped mom pick styles similar to how she wears her hair now! We decided to buy two wigs and have mom start wearing them now so as her hair begins to thin and fall out, she will already have been wearing wigs and it can be more of a private process for her. The wigs look wonderful and mom walked out of the store wearing one! Ty gave his seal of approval when Nana looked at him and asked him what he thought and he gave her the biggest smile! As awkward or sad of a situation this could have been, it was actually very therapeutic and mom had a smile on her face the entire time! She couldn't have looked more beautiful today and had her "happy glow" back to her! After coming home and receiving rave reviews from everyone at home, the boys decided that they wanted to try on moms wigs. It was nice that we were all able to get a laugh and share this experience with mom! We were blessed to have a day today that was filled with smiles and laughter! With or without hair, my mom will ALWAYS be beautiful, but at least we found her a few wigs that help her feel the way we see her (beautiful) during her chemo treatments! Love you momma!
