J Jump Joyful
"J Jump Joyful" was one of my favorite Sesame Street songs when I was very little. It fit me then (my middle name is Joy) and it fits me RIGHT NOW, hence this composition! Silk bobbins and my hand-carved stamp help me express in color and gesture my joy:
I cannot begin to express in words my relief or gratitude.
I'm going to start a new tapestry to celebrate. I'll use these threads.
Having scheduled my follow-up appointment with my surgeon, the next pressing engagement I must arrange (I'm not usually this formal but the occasion kinda needs some sort of ceremony) is the donation of my hair!
I have been planning to donate my hair for months, it's quite long now. How marvelous that I get to give it to someone else! (How much better it would be if the world could be rid of cancer and alopecia, perhaps there would no longer be a need for hair donations.) I did worry it would have to be made into my own wig. May my donation be a blessing to warm and cool and crown another.

This is really wonderful news. I applaud and smile and send good, green energy from Denmark!
Will you tell a little bit about the donating of hair - how, to whom, in what way? How much hair do you need to be able to donate it? I have never heard of anyone doing it here, and I think it sounds perfect....
