Grace: A Child's Intimate Journey Through Cancer and Recovery
“ 46 Mommas Shave for the Brave do not fear the clippers as they have already experienced the worst that can happen in a parent’s life. Bald is nothing to a momma but a new hairdo and the means to start a conversation and bring awareness.”
As 46 Mommas pack their bags to fly to Washington D.C., I am thinking of each one of them. Today, I am adding each of the 46 Mommas to the nomination list for The Big Heart Red Carpet Awards for Childhood Cancer Awareness Month. Just in case I have not mentioned it, each of the nominees is a winner! This is not a competition. This is gratitude-filled recognition for each and every nominee!

Can I tell you something, Mommas? I know you will be returning home with a little less (like your head of hair,) but I will let you in on a secret. There is something in your suitcases you did not pack yourselves. With each of you, I send my deep respect, genuine appreciation, and my very best wishes for an incredibly fun fundraising time together. I stuck it all in your bags, right next to your undies, when you weren’t looking!
I love you!
Please let me know if you would like an experienced shaver to help!
