The day before I had to leave for surgery was probably the worst. I had been running around trying to get everything done befor leaving. No time to take care of myself. You keep telling yourself you are being silly wanting to get yourself fixed up before you go. I mean who gets dolled up for a date with cancer?
Its hard to explain but you feel like you have this incredible ugliness called cancer growing inside of you and it's almost like you feel it trying to seep out. I really regretted not being able to take the time for a little pampering. So at the final hour I called The Fine Line to see if they could wax my brows. I certainly didn't want to lay in the hospital with the beginning of a unibrow. Honestly I was starting to feel like sasquatch.
They were able to get me in at closing. Long story short once I got there the girls took such good care of me. I know many of them from working in the bridal industry. The next thing I knew they were throwing color in my hair, massaging my hands, waxing me, giving me a glass of wine, then a haircut. All of this while listening to me break down and cry. They stayed until 10:30 pm that night and what they did for my spirit is indescribable. I was probably at my lowest point walking in there and left feeling just a little more prepared to meet this head on. Thank you ladies!
What a great outpouring of love and kindness! You are truly fortunate to have so many that love and care about you. Love You,
ReplyDeleteGod bless them angels at fine line!!!

I'm not sure who all gets this blog, but, Wow to the Fine Line Salon, thank you for taking the time to do such an incredible thing. Poeple rarely do that anymore, take time out for the care of another human, and what a difference it made in someone's life who really needed it at that moment. Thank you to whoever you all are, Angels indeed!
ReplyDeleteThose girls are the best and Kathy Bjork, owner of the Fine Line, has set the tone and example for the way people are to be treated when they walk in the doors of that beautiful mansion! They took care of me during my cancern as well! They not only try to make us all a little prettier on the outside but their sweet spirits help our hearts be a little lighter! I'm so grateful for the way LaJeanna was cared for and I'm so happy to call these sweet women my friends!
