Comment from Southern Writer
I took my dear young friend (a mother of three children) to pick out a wig and get hats and scarves. She starts chemo this coming week.
Thank you the story couldn't have come at a better time for me. This is proof that our writing touches lives. Good writing.

Comment from anabelle
Church can be such a strong support during difficult times, both the social and the spiritual aspects of it. How wonderful of her friends to make colorful scarves for her.
Best of luck in the contest.

This was a very sweet love story, and I'm happy that Chet loved Grace no matter how badly the cancer had tried to take her looks.

This is a very touching story. The love between the old couple is apparent througout the entire piece. When her hair fell out it broke my heart. good writing.

Comment from Meshe Nair
A very nicely written story. It did bring a tear to my eyes. The love that her husband has for her is poignant. It is great that she has true friends. It will keep her going on for as long as she lives.
Good read.

This brought a tear or two to my eye. What a charming story of love from Grace's husband and from her friends. Very well written. Good luck in the contest.
Found a nit (I think):
[As] first he wasn't sure where it was coming from - did you mean "at"
