After hearing the story from our customer Lily, we couldn't hold back our tears. Tears of joy, because her friend Irma was able to beat cancer!
Lily: “Irma and I have been best friends since school. We met at a running competition. I twisted my leg and fell, and she was the only runner to come off the track to help me up and make sure I was okay. Then she took me to the infirmary. But she did not regret at all that she had missed her chance to win then. Irma is always like this. She is very kind, easy-going and ready to knock herself out for the sake of others. She was an excellent runner and athlete. At the next competition, she smashed everyone to smithereens, taking first place. Her sports career developed rapidly. She represented our school, then the city, and then the state at the competitions. She got an athletic scholarship at the university, which we both entered. When she and I found out about this, we jumped so hard on my bed for joy that we broke it. And then a terrible thing happened. Irma, who had never smoked and had been running all her life, was diagnosed with lung cancer.
It was a shock. I sobbed for two days when I found out about this, but my friend was not going to give up. She comforted and encouraged me, her family and boyfriend when it should have been the other way around! Irma fought for her life as fiercely as she fought for first places in competitions. And she won. At the cost of several courses of chemotherapy, severe pain and loss of all body hair, including eyebrows and eyelashes, but these are all trifles. My baby is alive, happy, she was able to return to the university and even run! This year we both got our PhDs. Irma's birthday is coming soon, and I'm going to give her a special portrait: her as a queen without hair, eyebrows and eyelashes. I want her to know her friends and family adore and admire her. I love with my beautiful, strong and cheerful bald queen!”
