The Alchemy of Affection

After losing his wife Christine to breast cancer, Dr. Grold is honoring her memory by donating all profits from his book to help cancer patients obtain wigs. Losing hair during cancer treatment can be a traumatic experience, and having access to wigs can help ease the emotional burden. Unfortunately, many individuals cannot afford this crucial part of the healing process. Dr. Grold's donation aims to fill this gap and provide much-needed support to those struggling to feel normal during a difficult time. www.ebeauty.com (4/4 stars on CharityNavigator.org)Dr. Kevin Grold has a Ph.D. in clinical psychology.
