I am bald because I was diagnosed with Hodgkins Lymphoma and received 5 chemotherapy treatments. I am bold because I walk with confidence without a wig, head scarf or hat. I know that hair does not define me and I embrace that. I am beautiful because I am ME. I am beautiful with each scar on my body, I am beautiful with or without hair, I am beautiful because I am ME. This is my story.
