Dear Good Wishes Fairy, My mother received the scarf and just loves it! It is one of the few things that she feels comfortable and good about wearing (she didn't like wigs). The card was so thoughtful, too. Thank you so much for helping my mom feel beautiful and understood during this difficult time. Your kindness and generosity means so much. My mother and I are so grateful.

Dear Good Wishes Fairy, My best friend is in town to help me take care of my kids while I start my chemo this month and she happens to write a blog. I received your wrap in the mail yesterday and was she was so impressed and happy for me that she devoted her blog entry today to your company. http://thewordwire.com/2010/01/12/good-wishes-returned-heartfelt-thanks-to-france-luxe.aspx
Thank you again. I truly felt a far away hug when I opened the card enclosed in the package. Sometimes a stranger (or strangers) can make a huge difference in the attitude of someone who is dealing with an adversity. You all showed me that.
I will wear my wrap with pride and will spread the word.

Dear Good Wishes Fairy, I wanted to share my progress with you because of the Good Wishes program and the comfort I am getting from my It's A Wrap.
I had my skin cancer removed in November and really did not need anything for my head at that time. However, hair would not grow back on that area; and I learned of a physician who does hair transplants. Since thin hair has always been an issue for me, I decided the time was right to have a transplant. I did so 3 weeks ago, and it has been an extremely difficult recovery period. I lost a huge amount of hair due to the procedure and the shock that hair can go into after the trauma. I have to undergo this again in 4-6 months as they perform the procedure in 2 sessions for women. I had 775 grafts and will have that amount again. Hopefully, my hair will look better than it ever has.
Because I have lost so much hair, I had to buy a wig. When I'm not wearing the wig at work, I use the It's A Wrap. Every time I put it on, I am reminded of you and your team and how encouraging and positive they were in their card to me. I thought you should know how you have impacted my life. I just ordered 2 more Wraps since it will take me a year to get through this. I am hopeful my hair will all grow back as the physician says it will, although the possibility it will not is terribly frightening. I am so thankful I found your and your company to help me get through this devasting time.

Dear Good Wishes Fairy, What you do is truly amazing. I can't tell you how incredibly gorgeous these are and how amazing your organization is. With women diagnosed younger and younger, something like this is truly phenomenal.
I LOVE the It's A Wrap!!! The Scarves would be gorgeous, too. My absolute favorite is the Hollywood print, but I adore Te Amo and Hip Geo, too. Wow. They're stunning!!
You have moved me to tears, Laurie. I never wore a wig or headpiece while bald with chemotherapy, but I wish I had known about you then. I never received anything so beautiful as the scarves you have available, and I will do my best to spread the word to others in my situation.
In fact, I'm in a PET scan tomorrow and would love to let them know about you. Would you mind? I'll send word through them and my oncologist about the program.
You are a Godsend. Truly. I can't adequately express how thrilled I am to receive one of those gorgeous scarves.

Dear Good Wishes Fairy, I am writing you to let you know on one of my worst days I had recieved my new Its a wrap And i want to tell you I cried tears of joy, As i had explained before with constant med changes it changes my hair and when its thin its awfull and it realy makes one feel lousy to always find a way to pin it back or poney tail it up or wear a hat to hide it ( or even wigs ) but I imedietly ran to the bathroom and put this on and laughed and cried I feel beautiful I let a few thin strans fall out the front even curled them a bit and even threw on some make up, Thank you For reminding me I am beautiful. I am going to pass on your info to the docs office i visit and everyone i may know who can use your talents so others can feel as good as I do, My husband has promised me that when we get our tax return I may purchase another for formal events and such since i was so happy and he hasnt seen me this confident in over 2 years.
Thank you and your staff so very much and the colors are beautiful.

Dear Good Wishes Fairy, I had to forward this message to you. This is a note from my friend, Kate, who was recently diagnosed with Triple Negative Breast Cancer and whom you sent a beautiful head wrap. The head wrap arrived, was very well received and Kate loves it. Thanks so much for this wonderful service.

Dear Good Wishes Fairy, I was just blown away by the amazing gift basket you left by my front door this week! I don't know how you knew exactly the things to include to combat every awful aspect of chemotherapy treatment. You obviously did your research and put an incredible amount of time and work into compiling such a thoughtful assortment of gifts. It will all be of great comfort to me, and I will send a note of thanks to the whole JLL care of Jamie. I just wanted to thank you individually because I especially appreciated one particular gift that you included.
I don't think of myself as a very vain person, but the thought of losing all my hair has been the hardest part of this whole experience for me. I finally gave in and got my hair cut really short last week, but I had been avoiding taking any further steps about exploring wigs, hats, or scarves. My doctor gave me lists of shops, but I just hadn't been able to face it. And then on Friday, this incredibly beautiful wrap arrived with a note of encouragement signed by all the people who work at the company, which made me cry. I just love it, and it's comfortable and easy to use. It arrived on the very day that my hair started coming out in huge clumps. It was like a gift from an angel. Now I know what I'll wear on my head, and I'm not quite so embarrassed and afraid of looking sick. I plan to order several more. You took care of the hardest thing for me.
I will never, ever forget what you did. I can't begin to explain how lucky I feel to be so supported. I had just joined the League and just met you, and you all are helping me in ways that I never would have imagined. I hope someday I'll be able to return the favor and be such a good friend to you all. I'm truly overwhelmed by all that you did!
Thank you!
Kate
