What special memories Harry. I loved the part about how your nan met her husband. I often wonder what my own life would have been like, had I gone down a different path.
We can learn so much about our own history by listening to our older...

I too have never heard of chemo curls. Went through a similar experience as you when I was younger. My hair is straight too. It was when a friend asked me to be a maid of honour at her wedding in about 1978. She wanted me to have permed hair so I...
