This weekend we celebrated the fact that my Mom is going through chemo, praying to defeat this cancer. She decided to “choose joy” and we made a party out of it with the help of a wonderful friend. This lovely friend came in early to work and reserved the back of the salon for my Mom’s husband, 3 daughters and 7 grandkids.
Not wanting the kids to be frightened she made jokes and helped calm nerves by letting the kids cut pony tails off of her head to donate.
Mom, I’m so proud of you! You are Bold, Bald and Beautiful!
I’ll share a bit more about our “party day” this week, including a few video clips!
P.S.
I asked you all to pray for her as well as share any prayer requests. I am praying for those requests you left. Do any of you have any others? You can email me at geekyandsassy(at)gmail(dot)com or leave a comment.
I'm Virginia & so glad you're here! You'll find me writing about my not-so-perfect journey with my faith, family, life and home. Stick around, comment and join the conversations.
I love meeting new friends!
Oh, wow. You and your mom look SO much alike. Praying for her and you and your whole family.
Thanks Anne! We do have similar smiles =) Thank you for praying too!
I love the party idea to include the fam and grandkids. I am sure they will always treasure her brave, bold and beautiful outlook on life.
