I will never forget how badly this business treated my mother when she got breast cancer back in 1994. Mom told them she needed a wig. ""Did your hair come out?"" they asked. Mom said no, she had not needed chemo, just a mastectomy. Mom told them she was not bald at all, just had very, very thin hair, and she had heard that they provided wigs to cancer survivors to boost their esteem. Well, you'd have thought Mom tried to steal a wig! They started yelling at her and got all aggressive, saying that if she had not lost ALL of her hair from chemo, she was not entitled to get a wig! Then they tried to get her to buy a very expensive, overpriced wig, but she wouldn't do it. She was so humiliated, she was crying as she left the store. I was with her, and I still feel her humiliation to this day. (She died 14 years later cancer-free, of pneumonia.)\r
