Help Melissa Keep Her Hair During Chemo

Story

Our incredible friend Melissa has been bravely fighting cancer for the past two years. After a period of remission, her cancer has sadly returned and spread to other organs. In the coming weeks, Mel will begin an intensive round of chemotherapy to try to kill all of the cancer cells and hopefully go back into remission.

As many of you know, one of the most emotionally difficult side effects of chemo is hair loss. We all know Mel’s hair is her thing. There is a way to reduce this—it’s called cold capping, and it’s been shown to help 60%–90% of patients keep their hair during treatment. Unfortunately, cold capping isn’t covered by her insurance.

If Mel has ever poured you a shot, handed you a hot dog and cheese fries, or made you laugh over a margarita, we’re asking you to consider giving back. She’s always been there for her people—and now she needs us.

Every dollar helps. Please donate what you can and share this link to help us support Mel during this next chapter in her fight. Let’s come together and show her just how loved she is.
