There was a woman who woke up one morning, looked in the mirror,
and noticed she had only three hairs on her head.
"Well," she said, "I think I'll braid my hair today."
So she did and she had a wonderful day.
The next day she woke up, looked in the mirror, and saw that she had
only two hairs on her head.
"Hmmm," she said, "I think I'll part my hair today."
So she did and she had a grand day.
The next day she woke up, looked in the mirror, and noticed that she had
only one hair on her head.
"Well," she said, "today I'm going to wear my hair in a pony tail."
So she did, and she had a fun, fun day.
The next day she woke up, looked in the mirror, and noticed that there
wasn't a single hair on her head.
"YAY!" she exclaimed, "I don't have to fix my hair today!"
Attitude is everything! It can make or break your day.
Everyone you come in contact with is fighting battles like you. Let's take care of one another. And don't forget to take care of yourself!

This poem is dedicated to all my cancer survivor friends. Hang in there Laurie, Phil, Jeannette, Patti, Fritz, Tom, Michelle, Jamie, Georgia, and each and every one of you. ;)
Most of all this poem is dedicated to my husband John, who went bald numerous times during his cancer ordeal.
John without much hair, during one of his 100+ blood transfusions
