Thanks Lizzie -
I just checked out the website and read about the organization. Amazing what one person can do. It's just in time for those of us in the frozen tundra. My "winter" headwear is getting pretty warm this time of year. Thanks for the post lizziejane. Sharon

Dear Carrie,

I would be very happy to provide you with either an It's a Wrap or a Scarf.
Unfortunately our scarves are not on our website, but they are easy to
imagine; large double sided silk squares. They are really beautiful and
quite warm. Our other choice is an It's a Wrap which can be viewed on our
website, www.franceluxe.com. Go to the Good Wishes Fairy in the upper right
hand corner of our homepage and click on it. Then click at the bottom of
the first paragraph which will take you to all of the choices - it is
noteworthy that over 98% of our Good Wishes recipients request the It's a
Wrap as they are the easiest to use. Also, please provide me with a couple
of choices so that we may process your request more quickly and I need your
mailing address .

Feel free to spread the word of our Good Wishes Scarves program. I have
copied a posting I put on the TNBC foundation website. It will give you
some background as to how the program started and really got its wings.

Have a terrific day!

Laurie


Hello,

I'm very new to the TNBC foundation and am thrilled to have found this
resource. As a tech challenged person, it took me awhile to figure out how
to even post a message. My name is Laurie Erickson and I am the CEO of a
fashion accessory company located in Washington State . A few years ago I
launched a program called Good Wishes scarves - a program where my company
makes one, free of charge, silk scarf or It's a Wrap for women experiencing
hair loss. This program was borne as a result of an email I received from a
loyal customer, Hillary, who bought hair accessories from my company. She
wrote to our customer care address and asked if we had any products for
women who are losing or have lost their hair. I replied "no" at the time,
but offered to make her a scarf at no charge, in a color of her choosing.

When Hillary's scarf was completed, we had a staff meeting and had a moment
for this terrific woman, silently sending her Good Wishes. After receiving
her scarf, we communicated from time to time and I told Hillary that should
she meet anyone along her journey, who might enjoy a Good Wishes scarf to
please let me know and I would happily have our factory make one for her -
she told me that her Good Wishes scarf had brought her comfort during her
chemo sessions. At a subsequent Chemotherapy session, Hillary met a woman
who learned of our fledgling program and requested a scarf - we were so
happy to know that our desire to give was becoming a reality.

I have really struggled to connect, to give, to share our scarves with
women. It seems so odd to have the ability to give and KNOW the need is out
there, but struggle to find the bridge to get that done. Fortunately, I
spoke with Malaak Compton Rock earlier this week and she told me about TNBC
- I was so happy when we spoke and I said "you're my Bridge!" - she was as
always just lovely and helpful and I am absolutely optimistic. My head has
been spinning with ideas and so I write to you here to help me spread the
word. It's very simple. My company works with hundreds of different silks
and cottons. I will give as much as I possibly can to the community of
women who are undergoing or experiencing an event where she is losing her
hair. I have two options at this time; a scarf (which can be a bit
cumbersome for some) or a headwrap called "It's a Wrap". I will send you
one at no charge. We don't have these all up on our website yet at
www.franceluxe.com, but I can send you swatches or a scan of the available
fabrics at this time.

If you or someone you know would enjoy either a scarf or an It's a Wrap -
please email me at laurie@franceluxe.com and me and my staff will work to
get it done for you.

In closing, I've worked in the fashion accessories industry for over 20
years. It is an honor and a pleasure to put smiles on faces through sharing
our work - I believe in the power of sending good wishes.

Thank you and I look forward to working together with you to perhaps send
some comfort to women from women.

Hi Laurie -

I was recently diagnosed with breast cancer, and have been following the
Cancer Survivors Network support services and discussion boards at
Cancer.org. There has been some very positive feedback about your company
from the posters at that site.

I also read about your Good Wishes program and that you provide a scarf for
women that are going through chemotherapy. I had my mastectomy on 2/9/10
and will be starting chemo next week. My oncologist has told me that I will
loose my hair during this time. I do not really want to wear a wig and have
not really been able to find a scarf that is light weight and will cover my
whole head.

I don't think I a really vain person, but knowing I have something beautiful
would be very helpful during my "bald period". I would be very grateful if
you would consider me as a candidate for your good wishes program.

Thanks so much for your consideration and providing this wonderful program
to women and girls that are going through so many health challenges.

-Carrie
