Given from the Heart..

Melissa is my co worker, my sister in Hello Kitty lol. She is one of the sweetest people you would ever want to know. Melissa hair has always long and very pretty, a few days ago I saw her and was in shock it was cut off very VERY short. She looked cute, of course but I did wonder why she had cut it. While walking up to her she was talking to another co working and explaining she cut her hair to donate it for a wig for cancer patients. I smiled and walked over to her and talk to her about it. She said she had gotten really involved with information about patients losing there hair and wanted to do something to help. I was proud of her, proud to know her, proud that she didn't care about her hair being long she cared MORE about helping someone. I had asked her for a photo and she allowed me to post this. I wish my hair were long enough to do this. Instead I want to do something like donating, I have not did an outfit in years but I plan to open my clothing store again in Second Life and make an outfit and donate the Lindens to this cause.

***** MELISSA'S OWN WORDS *******

So many people complement on my hair how it looks so pretty and healthy and to never cut it. As the month of September some people may know is leukemia awareness month and being touch by some of the stories of families I thought what can I do besides sent in a check with and ok amount. Yes my hair! I've always been so proud of having my long hair but I decided to donate it to locks of love. Locks of love is nonprofit org. People log in to locksoflove.com and fill out a donors form and send in human hair. It needs to be at least 10in long but if u send more it's welcome the more the merrier. Just the idea of being able to help a kid in need makes me feel like a better person. I know it might take a while to get use to the haircut for some of my family and friends but as long as it comes from my heart everything is fine. My hair will grow again and so will yours so get donating!
