Marge: That's great! My friend has had two sisters die from breast cancer. In their honor, I have decided to grow my hair for "Locks of Love" that provides women undergoing chemo wigs made of natural hair. Next month is when my golden locks meet the scissors! It has taken me two years to grow my hair long enough for them to cut.
