Fake Head?
I met with an “Image Consultant” at the hospital today. It’s a really cool service they freely provide patients going through hair loss due to the effects of Chemo Therapy. A free wig, scarf, and two hats are donated to each patient. So, as I sat there looking at the wares I was informed that because the selection is rather limited for the wigs I might have to go to the American Cancer Society to get one that is more desirable. Then, she informed me that my insurance company might allow for a “Cranial Prosthesis.” ”A What?” Yup, you heard right. Apparently, for the request to go through, it has to be submitted on the prescription form for a Cranial Prosthesis. Sounds like a fake head. I knew I was losing mine at times but this takes the cake. I wonder who came up with that one. I Would love to have heard the laughter in their office that day.
