During my son's treatment, although he hadn't lost that much hair, he decided to shave his head bald. Soon after as he and I were walking to my car in a large shopping area parking lot, one of his female acquaintances who had not seen him in a while and pointing to his head yelled loudly "What happened!?". And without skipping a beat, he yelled back loudly across the parking lot, "CANCER"!
