The Best Medecine

I ran into a dear neighbor of ours when I took Lucy out for a walk this evening. She has been battling cancer and working full time, and it's been a while since we caught up. She filled me in on her treatment's progress and woes, and all I could do was lend a sympathetic ear and offer my support. She seemed tired, but resolute, and funny as ever.

"Isn't your birthday coming up?" I asked.

"Yep, next week," she answered brightly. "Do you think I could get some hair?"

"For sure," I nodded, "but you'll have to wait. It's on backorder."

"Right," she laughed. "Supply chain issues."
