A True CoverGirl

This isn't melanoma related, so I hope you don't mind that I'm sharing this. I wanted to take a minute to express my sympathy to Talia's family. I have been trying to find something to say and all that pops in my head is about how unfair it is. Cancer doesn't discriminate.


If you watched any of Talia's videos, you know what a special young lady she was. She was beautiful, intelligent, and brave. She faced cancer with a brave smile.

We could all learn a lesson from Talia.

Rest in peace, beautiful girl.

Bald & Beautiful...Barbie!

I have always been a fan of Barbie. I had everything from the life size Barbie car (that I was too scared of to drive so I would stand on the back of it and sing......) to the Christmas Barbies to Ken and friends. I loved Barbie. Seeing this story online tonight made me love Barbie even more.

Thank you, Mattel, for making this little girl remember that she is a beautiful princess, with or without cancer.



Now, go make more of these dolls so that we can buy them so that another little girl with cancer can feel as special as beautiful Genesis.

***Oh, and Mattel, please donate a portion of the sales to childhood cancer research.



Please.
