Breast Cancer, Henna, and Beauty. . . What do they all have in common?

Good Morning!  I hope your's has been a beautiful one!  I am sure that you are wondering about my title, Breast Cancer, Henna, and Beauty,  I know I would be!  So please read on.  . . . .

As you know, October is Breast Cancer Awareness month and a few days ago, I read a blog about breast caner and henna, and was very moved!  (http://hennablogspot.com/the-art-and-beauty-of-henna-in-breast-cancer-awareness).

And yes, it was a few days ago, but after reading this article, I had to deal with my own emotions and thoughts about cancer and the toll it takes on the patient and their family and friends.  Unfortunately, I know first hand, having lost my Father to Lung Cancer nearly 7 years ago, what cancer feels like.  Not directly of course, but how it feels to watch those you love go through the process, the treatments, the surgery.  And the emotions they go through, from feeling the "why me?" to the "I can do this" to the "Oh, my hair is falling out."

Man or woman, I think that the physical changes cancer causes are difficult!  I imagine that even though you know that you have this disease, you still want to look at yourself and feel the very beauty that you know you are.  For woman especially, I think hair loss is double whammy.  I mean just think about the time and energy we spend every day on our hair to make sure that it looks just right.  And then to wake up one morning to find that all of it has fallen out must so difficult, emotionally and mentally.

So where then does Henna come into play?  Right now. . . .I have been inspired by Henna Sooq's blog!  Brilliance by Chaitali would love to offer you,or someone you know battling Breast Cancer, Henna Artistry for the month of October free of charge.  What Queen or Princess would be complete without their crown, their Henna Crown that is?  And if you feel that you would rather not Henna your head, then let's do your arms or feet or whatever you feel like!  As long as you promise to feel as beautiful as you truly are, I will Henna away!
