I'm with Sundi - crying like a baby after watching this. The sincere wish to experience a tiny bit of what their friend Gerdi was going through and to walk a few steps in her shoes seems such a moving and beautiful testament to friendship and the sisterhood. The compassion and the willingness to seek humility...awesome. -

I had the opportunity in my life to konw one of the strongest women I've ever met and to know that she turned 22 years old this year just makes me smile. You see I met her when she was 4 years old and fighting cancer. When her hair went away she was heartbroken, and because of how her parents were raising her, she was not allowed to wear a hat at the table (christian belief) to which I hold no ill will against Chris who was doing the best as a single parent with shared custody as he could. At that time, I had met Chris while attending university. So at supper one day she was told she wasn't allowed to wear her hat at the table and it broke my heart to see the look in her eyes. The next day at supper though was a different story. When she was told to take her hat off at the table she said "But how come everyone else gets to keep their hat on?" It was then that Chris noticed there were more hats than usual at the tables surrounding ours (including me). I said "Just for you, I will take off my hat!" And when I removed it and placed it on the table she lit up and as more and more people (27 of us in total with 6 gals) all bald to the noggin she was just giggling. It didn't take much coaxing for my fellow alumni 18 years ago to shave our heads for Chloe and with the look on her face, the smiles and giggles it was so worth it to keep our heads shaved until her hair grew back. I had such a close bond with that kid that I will also never for as long as I live forget the day she came to me and said "I needed to tell you something before I told anyone else... I got my last poke today!" Chris smiled and confirmed that Chloe needed me to know about it before anyone else (even mom)! -

I'm crying like a baby after just finishing this. Why? The women themselves said it all. Gerdi must be a remarkable person to have so many remarkable friends. I wish her a full recovery.
