It’s Been Said that You Meet Angels in the Most Unexpected Places.
Always at Unexpected Times. But Angels always Come When You Need Them Most.
On a Quiet Saturday Morning, Miss Doodle and I Met a Trio of Angels.
Yes. Not One Angel, but Three.
These Angels were In a Tiny Storefront Shoppe.
But Let Me Begin this Story with an Update.
For Miss Doodle, a Three-Month Hospital Stay caused Hair Thinning.
Once home, the Hair began Growing Back. And this is All Good.
Now with the Second Phase of Treatment the Hair is Thinning Again.
We’re Not Sure Where this will go. But we need to be ready.
After Discussions with the Hairdresser, it is determined that Extensions are Not the Fix.
The Hair with Extensions will Fall Out and the Extensions Will put Added Stress on the Follicles.
The Next Suggestion was a Tough One to Accept.
A Wig.
We checked out YouTube sites on Wigs. Overwhelming and Confusing.
We Needed Wig Experts. And Fast.
So on a Quiet Saturday Morning, We Went to Trendz Beauty Supply.
And here’s the Best Part of the Story…
The Shoppe has a Floor to Ceiling Selection of Wigs.
Hundreds and Hundreds of Wigs.
And Angels.
At First Blush, It was assumed the Wig was for Me.
No. For My Daughter.
And with soft voices, we told the story. There were Tears.
And Then the Full Court Press.
We’re Here to Help You.
And there is No Charge for the Wig.
Gently, They took her Hand and Showed her the Wall of Wigs.
We’ll Show You How This is Done. We’re With You.
And Off She Went. With the Angels.
I Watched through Tears of Joy. My Heart Swelled.
Three Wigs were Selected.
Then the Fittings Began.
Lace Front Wigs. Long, like her Own Hair. Black. Straight.
And a Wavy Wig too.
Begin with the Cap to Cover Your Hair.
Red is Not Her Color. But She likes the Length.
Another One.
Getting the Fit Just Right.
Now Styling.
Gifts of Wig Shampoo and Wig Styling Spray.
And a Net and Brush and Head.
All Included.
Thank You Trendz Beauty Supply.
Magic.
Trendz Beauty Supply. A Place of Angels.
Miss Doodle looks beautiful! Love the one she picked! Bless the folks at Trendz, they are truly angels!
Thank you Suzee…it was truly a joyous experience. 🙂
Wow! Your angels are fabulous! And Miss Doodle looks great with her new hair! Oh, what a wonderful solution and even more, what wonderful angels. There is so much love, isn’t there?
How wonderful that you have such a place. My thoughts are with Miss Doodle, wearing a wig is hard, losing your hair is harder.
You just never know when someone’s benevolence will find you
There is so much love, Jeanie…it truly was an uplifting experience. An experience filled with magic.
Hi Jeanne 🙂 I have been trying to catch up with you and your family recently. Although I didn’t chime in… I am sorry for your daughter’s illness and the challenges you all have been facing lately. You are one sweet and strong soul.
Love,
Summer
P.S. Your daughter’s new hair looks lovely 🙂
My eyes filled with tears as I read this. Yes, there are angels everywhere <3
Yes, Joanne, thankfully there are…thank you for your kind words. We can do this…oh yes we can. 🙂
Hi Summer…welcome back…so good to see you here and thank you for your kind words.
Oh my gosh! This had me in tears reading it. My best to you all. What a wonderful team of angels. Life is such a mix of truly beautiful and truly trying experiences.
Thank you Ling…thank you for your kind words…this was a wondrous experience for sure.
What a beautiful story! Such a count point to what’s going on in the country today. And she looks GREAT! How does she feel about it?
Thank you Calen – she was very excited but is far from ready to wear the wig…this was my way of buying insurance in the event that it comes to the necessity to wear a wig…I am so thankful that this was a joyous, positive experience for us…one filled with hope and love. Doesn’t get any better than that.
It was a very wise plan. 🙂
Kindness amongst all the chaos – lovely! Thanks for dropping into ABAB – much appreciated.
Hi Mike…thanks for visiting…lovely to meet you.
Miss Doodle looks absolutely beautiful. I believe that angels walk among us every single day, and what a joy and blessing to meet the special ones He sent along for you that day! Thank you for the tears–and the smiles. Dawn
