Now, It's Personal

We recently got the sad news that a good friend's 20-something daughter had been diagnosed with breast cancer — after losing her mom to the same illness when she was in middle school. Earlier this week, she underwent a double mastectomy.

Now, her two younger sisters are faced with the unthinkable — getting tested for the BRCA genes and possibly having to make a choice that no one should ever have to make.

As far as I'm concerned, anyone in their 20s IS a kid — and deserves the right to enjoy their youth without worrying about life-altering issues for just a little while.

So Jaime and family, for whatever it's worth, this haircut's for you.
