Kaylee welcome to the Hair Loss Solutions TV program. Hi. Hi. So tell me
Kaylee, the good news that the audience has got to hear right off the top of the
show, is that you are a year and a half clean of cancer is that true? Yes. Pretty
exciting news, huh. Yes. I'm so thankful. In December 2014 I
got diagnosed with a brain tumor and had emergency brain surgery. And then in
January we, of 2015, we went to St. Jude and I got treated there with radiation
and chemotherapy for nine months. You said St. Jude's, that's a tremendous
Hospital and just an incredible charity that I know engulfed you and your family
incredibly into it I'm sure. Yes. In fact, you had the opportunity to do some
commercials for them as well, am I correct? Yes. And who did you do them with?
Jennifer Aniston. Well, you know, she is my absolute favorite. I think she has the
best hair in the world. Best color, best everything, except for your hair. And to
let the audience know, that's a beautiful head of hair you have, but that happens
to be something that Wigs for Kids provided for you. Tell us the story about,
how did you find out about Wigs for Kids, and what was it like to go through that
experience? Well my mom had heard of a couple different places and so she was
doing research on them and then Wigs for Kids popped up. We realized that it was
such a great place, and yeah that's how we found it. You went online and you, you
registered and requested a new wig, which is a beautiful wig that you're
wearing right now. Did you have to find a salon? What was the story, what was the process
that you had to go through? Well we could not find a salon that would do all
the wig stuff in Colorado Springs. So we actually had to travel to Denver, just
about an hour away from here, and we could finally find one there. We have
wonderful salons from all over the world. They cut the ponytails that people
donate, but the most important part that helps us, besides all those important
parts that are already working, is the important part of being able to fit you,
and size you. And be sure that we've got the right color for you and the right
look, and then fitted on you and, and cut it into the style you want or braid
it like you got it today. And that's a message we sent out to all of the salons
that are listening to us today Kaylee, because that message is something we
train people that are hairdressers that want to really do something for people
like you, that have that need to look beautiful because you already look
beautiful inside, you're just, you're gleaming smile radiates Beauty. You know,
you put that wig on the first time, what was it like? What does it feel like
to have hair again? Because you were a year and a half without hair. Yes sir. And
I just felt like a normal girl again. It felt so great. You were going to school all that
time? Yes. Yeah? And did, did you have any difficulties going back? Did you wear a
hat? Did you wear a cap, anything that you did to kind of camouflage the hair
loss? Yeah, I wore like a little hat type thing. Just sometimes, some people that
don't understand, you know, when kids don't understand, they don't, they don't
know when they say something might hurt your feelings. Was there any of that, that
went on while you were there? No. There was a lot of staring at first, but that
got better and like, as soon as I started wearing my wig, that got a lot
better too. Tell our audience that the fact that you went through chemotherapy
and radiation, but because of the treatment that you, have it's most likely
that you told me you won't get your hair back? Mm-hmm. The sides are growing but the rest isn't,
so. Because of the donations that come in as ponytails, the donation of dollars that
people provide Wigs for Kids, we're going to help you continually each year with a
brand new hair piece for how much? Nothing. And we're going to continue to
give you that hair system all the way through college because that's a part of
what Wigs for Kids does. And we're going to help you look yourself and live
your life because I just, I just know you have such a special character
inside yourself that you're going to make a difference in other people's
lives. As you've already made I'm sure, every
place that you go. Thank you. Your welcome girl. Well then it's more than, more than just
myself. It's a tremendous amount of people that work in Wigs for Kids that,
like I said, the salons all over the country that cut the ponytails because
it takes 20, almost 20 ponytails to make one hairpiece. And it takes, you know,
$1,800 in actual dollars and cents, and that hairpiece would cost anywhere from
three to four or five thousand dollars in a normal salon that sells hair pieces
like that, that are custom made. But for you it's absolutely nothing and we want
you to know that we're here to support you for the entire journey of you
becoming something very, very special. What are you going to be when you grow
up by the way? I would like to be a brain tumor doctor. My doctor at St. Jude was
very inspiring and I just want to be like him when I grow up. Well I know how
St. Jude's has absolutely been wonderful to you, your mom who is a very special lady
who's sitting over on the side over there that nobody can see right now
inside the cameras side. And the reality is, that it takes some great parents that
you have, thank God. It takes your faith, which I know that you got that as well.
And it takes the inner beauty that you have that gives you the strength every
day. But boy, it sure help when you got the people like Saint Jude's, and Wigs
for Kids, and the donors that are out there that really care about you and the
people that are praying for you, so. We are just, we're grateful to celebrate a
year and a half of no cancer and no future of cancer because you're just
going to make a big difference being a brain tumor, solving the problem. Now you
got to work at solving the problem so there's no cancer, to put you out of a
job. How's that. Can we like kind of pray for that? Yes. Thank you. Yeah that'd be great.
Do you have any hobbies that you can share with the audience that you do now that
you're back on your feet and doing your normal kid thing? I love doing art, um,
that's probably my favorite thing. And then I'm doing horseback riding. In your
artwork, is it painting, is that sculpturing, what kind of art work do you do? Um,
more just sketches. Sometimes I do paintings, so. Do you think that someday
you could sketch on a napkin or something and send me one of your
sketches? Totally, I would love to. What would be the message that you would want to share with, with
kids that are out there that have been challenged with these kind of
difficulties. Whether they're cancer or whether they alopecia, which was an
autoimmune disease where their hair falls out. Or even trichotillomania, where they
pull their hair out. Kids we take care of everyday at Wigs for Kids. What would the
message to encourage them be from Kaylee? Never give up. I know it's hard and
sometimes people say things, sometimes feel awkward or people stare at you, but
never give up. Mr. Churchill gave that speech when he said never, never, never,
ever give up, and you're a good example of that. You know, you, you inspired me
from the day that I first met you a couple weeks ago, and I am just, I'm
blessed to be able to, I hope call you my friend and me your friend as well,
because you truly are a special, special individual. Thank you. You're welcome.
We are so excited that we hope that maybe soon we might be able to get you
get to meet you personally and I've seen if I can make some arrangements to be in
your area to be able to visit you live and in person. But thank you. That would be awesome.
And we could go horseback riding together! How's that?
That would be awesome. Alright we'll work toward that and you tell your family
continue to be as special as they are, because you're, you're a part of that
product of what they've been to you. So I know that they cherish you and love you
and I thank you for being, taking the time to be interviewed with us, thank you.
Thank you. You've just met a real hero. A person who really has fought a battle
that most of us much older than Kaylee will probably and hopefully and
prayerfully never have to battle. But you can pray for her, you can, you can seek
out to help other kids through Wigs for Kids and donations of your hair and
finances. But you know what, do me a favor tonight when you get ready to go to bed,
stay a little special prayer for Kaylee and her family and
thank God for the blessing of her complete healing of cancer and her
future of finding the cure to cancer. So until we meet again on Hair Loss
Solutions TV, we'll look forward to our next interview.
But remember, beauty begins within. I'm Jeffrey Paul.
