Compassionate Beauty

Back in March 2005 I had the opportunity to be part of a special project here in Calgary. We have a new spa in Calgary called "Compassionate Beauty" devoted to women going through cancer treatment. They basically offer 3 services - wigs, mastectomy products and pedicures/manicures. Anyways, my friend Tammy and I are part of the ad campaign. Each of the services has its own ad. The one for wigs shows the bald head of one lady, the one for mastectomy products shows two balds heads together to look a set of breasts, and the one for pedicures and manicures shows 5 bald heads to look like 5 toes. I am the third toe and my friend Tammy is the baby toe. It was a wonderful experience to be part of something like this. Tammy and I indulged ourselves and went to have pedicures at the spa last week. It was like a little touch of heaven. They take extra special care in the creams they use, they send you home with the tools that they they have used on you (sterilzed first) and the staff has special knowledge in regard to people with suppressed immune systems.

Here are the ad pictures and a picture of us ladies at the grand opening of the spa.
