It's a wrap! (free head wrap for chemo patients)

A few days ago, my mom got a package from goodwishesscarves.org. It was a beautiful silk scarf as you can see from the pic above. The scarf has Swarovski Elements and retails at $72. The scarf also came with a personalized card with signatures and well wishes from their staff. I had applied a few months ago and was glad it arrived just in time for the increasingly warm weather. Despite the heat wave, my mom was still wearing a winter beanie around the house and outside. Since getting it in the mail, my mom has only been wearing this scarf. Sometimes it's little things..signs of compassion, like this that can really make someone's day.

Kudos to L. Erickson USA (franceluxe.com), the accessories company which sponsors this program. It is a really wonderful thing that they are doing to help individuals with cancer.

not my mom's scarf, but one of the many that's available
