I WISH for a wig & wig care supplies for my Mother
"My Mother has been diagnosed with Stage IIB Grade 3 Breast Cancer. It was in a lymph node and was 3CM large. She has had a masectomy and is getting her portacath put in Friday to get ready for chemo. The chemo will make her hair fall out. She is fighting for me and for my son (her grandson). He is 3 years old. She wants to see him grow up. I do not have the money to get her the wig."
I WISH for help for my family - Daughter is sick with Leukemia
"I am writing out of desperation and in the hope that maybe someone can help us or at least point us in the right direction. I am a stay at home mother to four wonderful children. Our oldest daughter, who is 11, was recently diagnosed with ALL - Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia. She was sick for a few months prior to her diagnosis but this came as a shock to our family."
I WISH For Breast Prostheses and Mastectomy Bra
"This is for my best friend. She had a double mastectomy when she was 28 (she's 33 now)and now has chemo induced lupus and lymphodema(spelled wrong). She agreed to be in my Aug 1st wedding but I know that she really don't want to because she'll have to wear a dress and of her weight gain and having no breasts."
I WISH Help getting a wig, my hair is falling off due to chemo. Ely is an 18 year old college student who is suffering with Lupus. She is losing her hair due to the Chemotherapy treatments. Recently she received money from her insurance company to purchase a wig but due to a wig shop's poorly trained sales person, her wig was ruined and lost much of her remaining hair. Just when she thought all hope was lost, Ely's hero arrived. Member KokotheGorilla contact Stephanie Anderson, the owner of Trinity Lace Wigs, who donated the wig and the fitting service to Ely. Thanks to caring individuals, Ely has her new hair and new confidence to attend college.
I WISH Prayers for my daughter and help to get prothesis and bras.
"As for me I had breast cancer 5 years ago and being with my husband of 42 years would love to have prothesis and bras. However, having my daughter and 3 grandchildren I can't afford it. I would just love to look like and feel like a woman again."
I WISH for a dying mom could to take her ganddaughter on a trip. .
"My Mom is dying of advanced breast cancer and she really wants to take her 7 year old granddaughter on a mini 2 day vacation somewhere fun in the greater southern california area. Sadly we do not have any money to afford this. My Mom has been a kindergarten teacher for over 20 years. Now the doctors say she is in her last year of life."
